Hello WCC! As you've all noticed, it's that wonderful time of year where the sitewide descends upon us all. The recent earthquake has sent many cats fleeing from their camps, and though they've taken shelter in Fourtrees, the twolegs come to inspect the damage seem to have other plans for them. For the time being, they aren't your concern, but don't forget that they're hanging around ;)

Currently, the Clans are settled in Fourtrees to attempt to wait out what's been happening around them. For the time being, you are all welcome to continue your lives normally, though keep in mind the twoleg presence when making topics, especially outside of Fourtrees. Cats will also not be able to return to their camps at this time. Other than that, the month of November will be pretty slow and dependent on character building, but we'll have another, more exciting announcement for you in December! Maybe you'll get to go home? Only time will tell!

Other than current events, we also have a couple of different sign-ups posted now! Summaries of them are listed here, though more information will be contained within their respective announcements. Links to each sign-up can be found below. Most of these sign-ups will have a strict deadline of December 1, which is notated in each of their respective announcements.

First: You may volunteer your cats to be TNRed! This is NOT effective immediately. The TNR will happen at a later date and will be announced by Staff when it comes. This is reiterated in the announcement, but please note that we are asking for a minimum of 25 cats to be signed up. If this quota is not met, cats will be picked randomly to be TNRed.
Second: For those that volunteer a cat to be TNRed, they may create an NPC cat. This slot is not affected by their current roster, and this character may remain until they die. After that, the slot is forfeit.
Third: As with every sitewide, everyone will have the opportunity to create a character to be used strictly during the duration of the plot. Staff will announce when these characters will come into play.

And as promised, your links to notable topics:

• The Fourtrees topic can be found here
  
• TNR sign-ups can be found here
  
• Perma-NPC sign-ups can be found here
  
• Temp-NPC sign-ups can be found here
  

If you have any questions, we ask that you ask them in the help thread or in the Discord's help-desk channel rather than below this announcement, or message a Staff member directly. We look forward to the progression of this plot and what you all make of it! We can't wait to see you guys in December when we have more to announce and to see the sign-ups from you all.
