The Month System
Alright, so this is my simple, easy-fix idea for Genesis Project's timeline woes. It is called a Month System. It works as follows.
We declare a month. The entirety of this Omniverse: all events therein that are currently occurring would be transpiring at a non-specified point in this month. You could have role-plays that occur before the month obviously. Since time beyond the month has not been established, no Roleplays can occur after of this month yet. Every so often, people vote to move the month forward into the next month. That is the entire process.
Thoughts?

Re: The Month System
I don't see why not; I'd rather do a year timeskip's if anything, but... as I think about it I guess we can opt for one in the far future. Question is...do we need this?

Re: The Month System
Well, I'm interested to hear why you would like a years time skip.
Look, if people come together and say, "This sounds like a good idea" even if I disagree I won't argue with it. You're also a reasonably intelligent fellow, so I'm saking for your idea.
As for the month system: I would prefer this. However, I'm admitting that this is also reactionary in the extreme. It is still, like the Continuity system, a knee-jerk to fix the potential that a person jumps us all ahead months without telling the community, which would really screw up timelines.

Re: The Month System
Damn, I can't remember why I wanted a year time skip for the system...but I feel like it was going to be astounding, my original response to this. XD
Well, I shouldn't think the month system could be too terribly bad. We (as in staff) have to make sure the announcements are up to date...maybe a week before we act on it so everybody knows?

Re: The Month System
I would agree with that. And simply because the months are moving forward wouldn't mean people couldn't finish old topics or make plots threads in the past after everything moved up. We could just ask them to specify.

Re: The Month System
I think this would be an interesting option to try out and see how it goes. It would help everyone, in my opinion, to stay on track with what is going on and not get left behind and feel as though they cannot catch back up to the current events.
