So I was just thinking that we should do three things as we really start this up again. If it's not wanted it's fine just a couple ideas.
1. I think we should start a character thread of who is playing who again and know all that and people can claim who they want from old HA and which ones they love here ect.
2. We probably need to hammer out a specific time from the plot on HA that this happens, just for the sake of unison, we don't want people playing all different times and such. I know we talked about a couple different times before, so it would just help for cohesiveness. -Next school year after, so a summer. -A year after the HA war (a full year) -9 years after the HA war (so some time to add some drama and such)
3. Should we delete all the posts from the LE plot and characters that don't matter to us, maybe not the applications but at least the posts of roleplaying if only to clean it up?
Any ideas on those ideas?

1. A character who's who thread sounds like a good idea 2. Nine years sounds good! But wasn't it originally four/five years on this site? Not that it makes that much of a difference, but still. 3. Yes (: <3

this one was set 9 years after HA, so 5/6 years after most of them graduated.

1. We should. xD
2. I like the idea of a site-wide timeline, but how about we keep the opportunity to skip backwards in some threads? So, if we're officially set 9 years after the events of H.A, we can create threads set 2 years after graduation, or even before the characters ever went to school. I think it'd be fun, filling in the blanks and working backwards from this arbitrary point in the future, discovering how it all came to be.
3. I'm down with that.

I kinda like Lex's idea with going backwards, but the only fear is if we go back and something happens then how would that affect the present day. like... ie two people who are supposed to be close (in a present day rp) and we rp something for them in the past and they got in this like huge fight and decide to cut off the relationship- in the sense of extremeties. I know it was extreme but do you see the possible confliction?

Should we make a subboard for every place for past threads? so to not get them mixed up?

I think the easiest way to keep track of threads is to label them with a vague timeline, rather than try to sort them into sub-categories. So, in or Kate and Kat thread for example, I could add "summer of 2019" to the title?
As far as continuity goes, I think we can trust ourselves to keep our own characters' stories straight. I don't think it'll be too confusing to work around.

I like the idea of jumping backwards and forwards through time - as long as it's on like, a different sub-board or something.

Well I just meant a subboard at like Honeydukes and the title would be like "Pre-2027 happenings" or whatever

Ummmmm well we did have the old timeline I did at the other site I can dig it up and refresh it to include whatever we want to.
I agree with leaving it about 5/6 years after most graduated, I think it'll be fun! And I'm totally down to get everything going again. Ummm ... what if we just do boards for anything going on in the years missing like was mentioned above? Because I know some characters had already explained what happened to them during those years.
And can I just say ... stoked to be back?!

Well even if we do explain what happened somethings might be fun to do. It was just an idea for organization.
