This is where you can submit plot ideas for mod-run plots and submit larger scale player plots (or smaller scale ones) for approval to the mod team. Accepted submissions of either kind are eligible to earn extra points for regains, the amount which will be determined by the mods upon submission of a mod-run plot or completion of the player-run plot in execution. Plots which are open to a wider variety of characters will usually earn more points.
Please fill out the following form in order to submit your plot.
PLAYER: Your name.
CHARACTERS INVOLVED: Your character and any other characters involved in the event.
PLOT: Your idea.
NOTES: Note if you are suggesting this as a player-run or mod-run plot. Player-run plots which are successfully run by players will earn more points, as a note.

This event sounds really fun, we like this! A couple of notes from us though.
A.) At this time, Retrospec would not be able to sponsor this event due to some IC changes in the company!
This means that the winner will need to receive a separate prize. We recommend sourcing from character CR, having prize donations, etc.
B.) However, what we are willing to do as a compromise for OOC incentive is that players who create teams or run courses solo while completing their course are eligible to receive one free 10-20 point item of their choice. We would like to reward players for participation in player plots rather than rely on an RNG system solely for signing up. ICly characters will know that they will receive a mystery prize (this will not be sponsored by Retrospec despite players oocly knowing what these prizes are), but they will not know what they are at the time of sign-ups and will not know until they finish the course.
C.) This timeline is completely fine for us, though please keep in mind that we do have the TDM/reserves/apps in November as well if that changes your timeframe at all!
D.) We're definitely fine with the penalties and course challenges you guys plan on doing, and we do advise taking a look at November's mini-log/in-game effects to help you plan these as well.
D.5) Not really a note, just a recommendation from us. In order to help keep the hype going on this and make it a thing players can participate in, you may wish to throw together a training log, sign-ups, team-building exercises, etc, to get you through from whenever your IC announcement is until the actual log itself goes up.
D.5.2) Keep in mind that a lot of the players now have special abilities/magic/powers/etc and you may wish to also design some courses/caps based on these (or tell characters they aren't allowed to cheat :P)
Let us know if this all sounds good to you and we'll add it to this month's calendar!

A ) That's super fine and we were planning on doing a sponsoring option so characters who wouldn't actively participate in the physicality of the competition can still throw their hat in. Team coaches, sponsors, cheerleaders, etc etc. Come and join the wild ride if you so choose.
B ) That works fine for us! One small question for clarification: does every participating character who runs the course get a 10-20 point item? Is this item contingent on course completion or is it like a participation trophy? Just so that we know so we can be clear as possible for the plot post!
C & D ) YOU'RE RIGHT and that totally slipped my mind since we hashed out dates way back when! Here's the new proposed timeline that we've got:
Characters are expected to run through the course without magic and using magic/abilities will be assigned stupid penalties. Some obstacles might look a little impossible. We'll create variation so that it's not a walk in the park for anybody. c:
Hopefully this all sounds okay! Thanks for working with us on this, mods.

All of this sounds good by us and it's greenlit by us including these dates.
As a reminder, accepted submissions/plots are eligible to earn extra points that you can apply to regains! This amount will be determined by us upon completion of your player-run plot. For the future, we would also like to note that accepted submissions for mod-run player plots are also eligible and point value will be determined upon submission.
We look forward to seeing this plot in action!
