And yes, there will be a deadline. It'll be nebulous for a little while because we don't want to impose hard and fast End Dates since delays happen and who knows where the plot will go from here, but act 2 will end once the majority of characters have settled on a way forward. Act 3 will be about enacting that plan.
Right now, we're roughly ~3 months behind schedule (which is fine, we built wiggle room into our timeline to account for this!), which means that if everything stays on schedule from here on out, the IC/OOC pressure for everyone to make a decision will start in October. From there, we expect act 2 to be roughly the same length as act 1, which is clocking in at 10 months, and act 3 will likely be the shortest act. This longterm timeline is very subject to change, but for the moment, we're comfortable saying that players should expect to at least settle on their own plan by late fall.
