echo_mods

Hi guys,

After much thought and reflection, I've decided I'm going to close 'Echoes'.  I know a few of you really had your hearts in this game and I appreciate your consistent contributions and efforts to make this work.  I'll take partial responsibility, saying I didn't mod maybe as effectively as I could have, but in creating/continuing this game from Time of Trial I'd always intended this to be a group storytelling effort, not a mod-led plot. And that didn't pan out. Unfortunately, with my real-life commitments, I can't leap to modding this community effectively to guide a really large plot line, and I just don't think we've got enough people or the key players to do it.

So, thanks for the fun, all, and apologies to the few of you who just recently joined. I do recommend moving characters over to 'Shattered' where several folks already play. There's also a few big games still kickin' out there in RP land that I'll likely bump into some of you again at.

If folks would like me to keep this comm up for PSLs, please let me know. I do like playing with all you guys and perhaps some of us could have some fun in this space playing with our current characters as well as trying out others.

Much love,
Nat

Rather, it should take into account how your take on this character's personality affected who he or she became. So, in a sense, this is your way of selling your interpretation. For example, some players argue for Sirius that he didn't get the whole blood purity thing when he was younger while some say it was a result of being at Hogwarts that changed his opinion. These are the sort of points you want to hit on here. The Harry Potter wiki (http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Sirius_Black) is a great reference to check that you've hit on major times in your character's life. For example, with Sirius' childhood, his relationship with his family would be a good point to hit on as well as his take on blood purity then and how those views might have shifted at Hogwarts. <font size="1" face="verdana"><b>CHILDHOOD</b></font>: At least two solid paragraphs. <font size="1" face="verdana"><b>HOGWARTS</b></font>.
