Bumping this up because the OFFICIAL RSVP (linked here) closed tonight, July 12th at midnight! https://airtable.com/shr4nlRMaHf86OQPa Please fill this out asap!

@Lady Lucinda Graves I’ll be direct messaging you a card in a moment or two 😎

Note to self, you are up to date on all new birthdays up to this point. @Armitage Sleeping Bear (Aaron) and @Lady Freddy Heyworth (Amanda) -- thank you for following the format. It really helps to speed up the process by just being able to copy and paste what people enter. Rather than having to type it all out. Please follow this format: Jan. 1st, 17XX Your Name Thanks for making this easier for me to update!

@Athena Peters — I have made props that probably only you and Hilary will ever see. But I’m dying to send them.

@Flora Owen — I am only *now* getting better at recording what I have sent. But it is a bunch.

@Ash Skolrud *disaster bi finger flintlocks*

I got my first 2 today 🎉

So sorry I didn't send this to you sooner, but you should be able to find it in your DMs.

@Newt Fidget (he/him) (Oliver (he/him)) that’s a really cool idea. I look forward to getting a letter from Newt 😎

As it turns out, I asked Athena permission to start a discord, and received permission to create an unofficial fan club, that is completely disconnected from Romancing Jan and Incantrix. You can get there here: https://discord.gg/M4FKqrGNKu

as a disclaimer— I am not on the team, what I say is just conjecture or my understanding based on my experiences here. I think part of the allure has been to protect identities as much as is humanly possible. Just in case. but, I totally get it. The forums are jumbled. The messenger application is browser based and weird. I’m personally hoping for a discord server.

@Sophrona Ramsbury and, I, meanwhile, might have been converted to Notion for this explicit project. I like that I can either pre-write a letter inside notion, or take a photo of a letter written and upload it. but I might wander back to airtable. We’ll see, I guess?

@Sophrona Ramsbury i have been sorely tempted to get into ink pads and stamps. Tempted. But I think those pennies are better served going towards regency garb for in person events!

absolutely, I've DMed you.

hey JL, this isn’t for Tavvi, this would be for you. Since the forums are out of character/out of game. This would, hopefully, help you, the player, make backstory connections on behalf of your character. best, greg p/o James Richmond

Even more oddly specific, with indicators on how to reply to letters my character might send.

A Clarification I made earlier to a friend about the purpose of the Bingo game: "To be clear, the purpose of the bingo cards is to inspire people to make dramatic character ties and to give them the context/ability/wherewithal/impetus to seek out character ties." • You could go back to the people you've made very loose or vague ties with and build something deeper and more interesting. • You could reach out to people new to the forums/game and develop something cool that brings them in. • You could even write to people who aren't doing the forums and see if they want to make a character tie with you based on the bingo card. I just want to help people get the most out of their experience here.

can you only use this with Microsoft Word or is there a way of using this in Google Docs?

I'm glad! I was getting worried that this wasn't that interesting :D

Thanks to @Earl Nicholas Howard, I have these two of James:
