March plot-with-me post!

[namesram]

Last month, the Free Grid’s shape and demographics were drastically changed by a severe storm. Some lost their homes, and some lost friends, but the storm also imported a patch of clean Sea (with some unexpected passengers) and put an end to death on the Grid. (Has... anybody actually tested this yet? Because this is a thing.)

This month, transportation across the Grid is stalling as a compatibility error makes most vehicles nonfunctional. Is your vehicle one of them? Are you frantically trying to get somewhere, or is this forcing you to slow down and smell the virtual roses for once? Are you interested in investigating the cause of the error, possibly via ancient Archive records or by exploring self-maintaining system utility facilities that have gone unvisited since before the Reintegration? Do you desperately need to get somewhere or else DISASTER? Are you part of a relief or rescue mission, or do you need one? Could you not care less about transportation because there are more important things going on in your life? Did you just rezz in and is this the worst system ever of all time?

Don't forget to use the Jobfair/Tasksets and Locations posts for ideas on what your character can do for others and they for you during this event.

Now get in here and plot! \o/

Were Spark and Ko going to go out and map the new geography? If so, does the transportation glitch for the March event extend out into the Outlands? Or will it only affect them once they're on their way back into the city to report?

They should, yes! I have to decide where Ko's been staying (I think in the vicinity of Dumont's I/O Tower), but they should plan an outing. And yes, the transportation glitch extends all over the Grid, including the Outlands, so that would interfere with them starting out (if they hadn't started out already). It only lasts 4 days ICly, though, so even if they were stuck out there, it wouldn't be for very long.

I kept forgetting to ask about that: do you want to make a post for this activity, or should I?

You could do it. I was going to make an IC thread about rebuilding the housing areas, but I couldn't find anyone who has an architect character. Oh well.
