MOD ANNOUNCEMENT: MOD TEAM CHANGES
Hello Beacon Bits, this is mod Leu with an important announcement.
As some of you who have me on plurk may be aware, there have been some rough things going on in my personal, offline life. I won't go into details here, since that's not the point of this message, but these personal issues have been affecting my abilities as a mod for some time. A couple of months ago, I tried to remedy this situation by taking on a bit of a lighter load in terms of modly duties, but I've since found that the stress is still just too much on top of everything else.
So instead of stepping sideways, this time I'm stepping down for now. As of today, I am no longer on the mod team for In the Night. There is a chance I may return to the team in the future, once things get sorted elsewhere, but that's something to discuss another time.
Now first things first: I'm not leaving the game entirely. I'll still be around with Will (demoted to PC status), and I might app another character in the near future. I'll still be a player and a presence in the game. In addition, I'll soon be taking up a post as moderator for the game's discord chat.
My former mod responsibilities (apps, faq, etc.) have been taken up very graciously by our aux mods, and the NPCs I played will remain as they are, just with someone else at the controls. I will no longer be in charge of any plot info— by virtue of being on the team before, I do know things about the plot, but I won't be sharing or answering questions about events or anything, and I won't be able to help with game issues aside from directing you to the proper channels.
For those still engaged in defender threads from the Enter Mr. Sandman event, fear not! I will not be dropping those threads, but will continue to respond until Dec. 7th, at which point any unfinished threads will have to be summarized.
Please know that this isn't a decision that I make lightly, and that it has nothing whatsoever to do with you players. You've all been absolutely delightful to mod, and I feel very lucky that my first mod experience was with a playerbase like you. Here's hoping I can manage to come back to the mod team someday, but even if I don't, it's been a pleasure, and you're all fantastic.
If you have any questions about the logistics of this situation or how something in-game might be affected, please ask below! I will not be answering personal questions on this post, but myself and the mod team are here to ease your mind about this transition.
Thank you guys for everything.

Thank you for keeping us informed of what's going on and for all your hard work! I hope real life gets easier for you in the coming weeks and months and, like the others, I'm so glad you're still staying with us in the game.
