[the suggestion box]
On Day 1, the suggestion box rules were unlocked! Note that these rules are for OOC REFERENCE ONLY, and you will have to have your character figure them out ICly some way or another! If it helps, Akira has posted an IC version of these rules on the box for characters to read (courtesy of LWJ). But I'll enumerate on them OOCly for you:
1) The suggestion box will not take multiple requests at a time! If you write down more than one, it will yell at you :(
2) You can request one item at a time from the suggestion box! This item can be anything, such as an item from home (a weapon, a trinket, an article of clothing), or even something you didn't have at home (like medicine, sunglasses, whatever). You can request an item once an OOC month, starting on the 1st and ending to the last day of said month. There's a size limit on items, though: the box won't give you anything that is bigger than like. . . a person. So no cars or motorcycles or the like!
3) Not all suggestions will be granted! I reserve the right to throw rocks at your character instead. I'm sorry in advance.
4) Bigger setting changes (I'll let you guess what that means) will need more than one character making the suggestion for them to be implemented. To make this easy OOCly, you can have one character make the initial suggestion and then just have a bunch of people +1-ing it for my purposes. How many people are needed to implement bigger setting changes? About ten or so! Once a suggestion is made and processed, I as a mod wil add it to the setting whenever we have a bit of lull time ICly. I won't be giving you buildings every week, for instance! I may wait a few weeks between setting updates depending on how busy we are. It all depends!
5) I reserve the right to change the rules of the suggestion box if I get so many requests that I start dying, sweats. But I don't foresee this being an issue, so!!
Now that the rules have been unlocked, you do not have to comment to the suggestion box to get your monthly items from home/small items! In fact, I'd 100% prefer you not comment and that you just handwave your character got them somehow. However you are free to keep commenting with other suggestions for funsies b/c the box still has some fun little features! And ofc, if your character got their monthly item and is trying again, please also comment so I can give you a SPECIAL SURPRISE that is not a rock I promise. Maybe.
Jiang Yanli's Note
However. If it is not too bold of a claim, I do believe that having such a bell in my possession would assist me in completing my duties as a member of Echidna and also making the lives of those living here as comfortable as possible. Having this bell would greatly ease the minds of two of the current residents here, and would undoubtedly make their stay more comfortable. Their mental well being is just as important as their physical well being; should we not search for avenues to allow residents to be happy, in addition to being clean and well fed?
Although I understand that they are not members of Echidna, and are not under any obligation to assist, there may also be times when there is something I am unable to do on my own. Being able to call upon them in such times would help me to better serve the community. Both young men are capable, intelligent, quick-witted, and able fighters who would be a great asset in helping the community thrive. They have willingly asked that this bell be created. I would like to honor their wishes.
I confess that it would also give me peace of mind, to know that I can call them to me to make sure that they are unharmed.
If it is too large of a request for you to handle, then I understand as well. Thank you kindly for your consideration.]
There is a pressed flower in there as well, for the box.
