Expeditions #3 and #4

The third and fourth Samanayr expeditions are going to begin soon, most likely within a day or two. I'll be running them with the permission of Sushi, so I hope you guys are going to enjoy yourselves! There will be both a random and an RP expedition. The catch is that you can only participate in one or the other!

Benefit of Random:
- less effort on your part

Benefit of RP:
- guaranteed and probably more prizes per person

The random will be running very similar to the first expedition, but users can claim a new square every hour instead of 15 minutes to give more people a chance to participate. The maximum number to be claimed per person is still three.

The RP expedition will also be very much like the second one, where I make the initial RP posts and participants choose one of their Samanayrs (or someone else's on loan and with permission, or one completely made up) to reply. If you reply within a certain time, probably 24 hours, you will have the option of making a second RP post with a chance for more prizes. It will also be run over a slightly longer period of time.

Because the expeditions will be run as a one-or-the-other, I'm going to ask people who are interested in the RP one to sign up now. Most likely, these are going to run later in the day tomorrow or Monday. There's a possibility it will be put off as late as Tuesday if things get really hectic, but that's slightly less likely. I will be accepting up to eight participants for the RP expedition. Sign up below with this form if you're interested. The random expedition does not require a signup, but you cannot participate in it if you choose the RP route.


EDIT: The RP Expedition is now full and participants are listed below.

ETA: If it does run late Monday, it may be a bit before I'm able to respond. I'll be on a long car trip with no net access until possibly Tuesday morning. I hope that doesn't pose a problem for this, but if it does, please let me know. ^^

It's sad there's only eight slots. T_T I know how much work it's going to be, though.

Looks like I'm much too late for the RP signup... Shall have to see if I can't make it to the random one. For as many people as want to RP...why don't we have more RPs going on over in that board? *tries to nudge people over there*

When I ran the last RP Expedition it was indeed a lot of work, and I think it's a very good idea to limit the number of entrants XD You're welcome to volunteer to run RP Expeditions in future months!

And like Origami_Dragon said, you can always do some freeform RP over on the RP board :D

I apologize that there are only eight spots. <3 I've never run one of these for Sams before and I want to make sure that I keep things workable for myself as I figure out my comfort zone and limits. Maybe if things go smoothly and I run another then it might be larger.

As it stands, the eight participating in the RP Expedition this time around will be:

1. Yuiven
2. Kagari
3. AranelSaraphim
4. LvSoulFriend
5. Bluestarwolf12
6. Kendarath
7. Britain
8. Orasteele

Everyone else, this still leaves you eligible for the Random Expedition!
