It's ☿ Sailor Mercury again, subbing for ♅ Sailor Uranus! Thanks for joining us at the RP Section Town Hall!

Announcements for May:
Roleplayer of the Month: Diagnosed!
Featured RP Announcement: Heart of the Ocean
Featured Otaku of the Month Announcement: ... Once again, there were no submissions!
Hall of Fame Initiates: Nothing for April! Will anyone wrap up an RP in May?

Announcements!
Sailor Pluto has returned to the Space-Time Door! We wish JupiterThunderCrash the best as she focuses on her future!
Featured RP discussion is encouraged all month long! The third Sunday of the month (May 20) is a good day to discuss the storyline with other readers, but whenever you're reading the Featured RP (Heart of the Ocean), share your thoughts and comments in the Discord channel!
We may have additional Casual Events—if you see additional announcements, you'll know what's in store! This is planned for the second half of the month, so it's coming soon! We had so much fun with "Real Time RP" (RTRP) in April, so keep an eye out for future May amusement to be had in the rp_rtrp_ic and rp_rtrp_ooc channels!
The Spring Challenge: Growth continues! We're one month in, so give it some attention in May! Regardless of what you chose to "grow", there are opportunities in May! Start a Storyline, join another, try out a new character, or something else new!
Ever read a line in an RP that you wish you could appreciate with others? Share it in the Favorite RP Quotes Thread! Also remember, you can share comments on RPs you like in each forum's "Guestbook"—check the pinned threads at the top!
A new Hardcore Event is still on the horizon, a [Multiverse] adventure! The event was delayed from a planned mid-April start, so keep an eye out. It will involve fewer D&D aspects than the most recent event, but will also have opportunities for RTRP events! We're sure it will be worth the wait!
Activity cards are still planned; thank you so much for your patience while we get them ready! (There were a few comments about having questions... when they're up, feel free to ask me, ☿ Sailor Mercury, and I'll help anyone who needs help!)

Additional Announcements and Reminders

• Remember, Approved Character Profiles are no longer required to roleplay in the Open Play Boards! You can use WIP profiles or try out new character ideas in this free play area!
  
• Open Play Boards can now be created and "hosted" by Rainbow Crystal Stamp holders!
  
• Discord RTRPs Open for Rainbow Crystal Members! Players having attained the Rainbow Crystal Stamp can now plan and host their own RTRP's in Discord! Use the OOC Boards to plan your events; if you would like your event to be put on our schedule and the GC Calendar, message ♅ Sailor Uranus on Discord!
  
• Don't forget about your List of Storylines? It's a convenient, editable, linkable listing of all your storylines! Convenient for keeping track of what RP's you are a part of! Even if you are only part of one roleplay at the moment, go ahead and make a post in that thread! All the cool kids are doing it!
  
• Also consider updating your List of Accepted Characters! Useful for finding and linking all of your canon, otaku, multiverse, crossover, AU—everything—character profile pages! Use it to remind yourself what profiles you've received Approval for, or to see what other characters other RPers have Approved if you both have interest in starting an RP together!
