Month 6 & Month 7

[Kaysea]

Just wondering if there's somewhere I've missed on the Website that can tell me when Month 6 ends and Month 7 ends.  

With all of my LOA/LIA I've gotten totally lost with the timeline. :-

All of my current posts are in M6, and I was wondering if I can skip some SL's and bring most into month 7 without too much bother. But I need to know how long before month 6 ends.

I know I'm not supposed to post in here, but here're my tips for knowing the month:

Newsletter

If you do what I do and pop into the Newsletter all the time to see how many people have joined, the current roleplay month is the fourth thing listed:

Welcome to the Newsletter!

Triad Weyrs Newsletter

November 2007

Current Roleplay Month: Month 7 Turn 4

Calendar

If you click on the Calendar tab from anywhere the default month (written in the pull down boxes next to Amber Hills Hold) always shows the current roleplay month.


FAQ

Accessing the main FAQ page off the tab (like accessing Calendar) and scrolling to the single topic entries at the bottom of the page shows one called 'What Pern Month Is It?' which helpfully lists all the Pern months and their Real Life dates.


At the bottom of that FAQ entry, there's a link to this FAQ:

What do I need to know about Roleplay Dates?

Which says (among other things):

Can I post in a month that isn't open?

Posting in a month that isn't open is called backdating a post. Backdated posts are allowed, but unless the post is late because of a member or council LOA, the post won't be timelined and will not count for ranker reqs.

Hope this helps!

I updated the month FAQ!

Jane found pretty much all the good places to look. :D

Thanks Ladies.

So this means that the rest of the Birthing Babies posts, won't be timelined because they'll fall out of the timelining dates.  Or they will because I was LOA and am just catching up?

I'm suspecting they won't, which is fine since I was away for most of this month as well.

But its a good thing, because I can skip a few weeks and the .... well, I know what I can and can't write now. *dances*

Thanks again!

The posts that you are finishing up can be timelined since you were LOA and are catching up (sometimes its just unavoidable).  Just send a quick note to the Timeliner to let them know which posts and why they are late.  But from that point on, all posts should be written in the current month or they will not count.

Thanks Eimi, will finish these off and then I'll skip the rest of the month.
