March Plot Poll

We've received a few requests for some lighter mod plots in-game, and we're happy to oblige. We would, however, like to know what sort of lighter plot the majority of you would like to play with before we proceed, so we've got a few options for you all to choose from:

Poll #12942 March Plot Pole
This poll is closed.
Open to: Registered Users, detailed results viewable to: Just the Poll Creator, participants: 31

Which plot would you like to see run in March?

Species Swap
24 (77.4%)

Odd Energon
3 (9.7%)

Acolyte Malfunction
1 (3.2%)

Theme Songs
1 (3.2%)

No Plot
2 (6.5%)



1 – Species Swap: Oh, that wacky Lambda is up to it again. Your character will wake up in a new, unfamiliar body, and stay that way for one to two weeks, after which they will revert to their original form. You'll be allowed to pick your character's new species or opt out.

2 – Odd Energon: Small quantities of exotic energon will be dropped into the Junk Pile and discovered around the Haven. Each of these new varieties will grant characters who consume them with a temporary power boost – maybe useful, maybe not so much! For the purposes of inclusion, some of these new types of energon will also be consumable by organics.

3 – Acolyte Malfunction: For one to two weeks, all of the Firstforged's Acolytes will have a small glitch in their recognition protocols – that is to say, they're pretty sure your character is their boss. They'll do exactly as commanded, regardless of who commands them or what they're commanded to do.

4 – Theme Songs: Exactly what it says on the tin. For a week or two, characters will be followed around by a persistent tune. You'll get to pick your character's theme song, or you can let us assign you a surprise. Opting out will also be possible.

5 – No Plot: Pick this one if you'd rather have a rest period (ie no mod plots) in March.

Whichever option's the most popular will run from March 10th to March 24th. If you have suggestions for future happy/lighthearted plots, we'd be happy to hear those as well! As usual, leave your questions and suggestions (and votes!) in the comments.

In other news: after some discussion, we’ve decided to make some changes to how Alignment Adjustments are done. Stay tuned for an OOC discussion post detailing what we’re changing, what’s staying the same, and what elements we’d like further player input on within the next few days.

Question about the species swap: you say a week or two, does that mean swaps could happen at different times for different people during the period of the event? And if so can we decide the timing?

Because there's a lot of appeal for being swapped and not depending on what others do, but if the swaps trigger at different times and don't overlap perfectly you could get the best of both worlds.
