hi! two questions:

- for the anniversary rare myo, is the myo approval deadline also october 10th? meaning, if a user has already used up their september myo and subsequently has to use their october one instead, they will have 10 days to design and get that approved?

- just to clarify for resource prompt applications: if a user applied but was never contacted, does that mean their form was retained and only users who heard back from staff had their forms cleared? or should users who were never contacted back about their applications be resubmitting as well?

  1. Yes. If a user has already used their September Monthly MYO, then they will need to use their October Monthly MYO. This gives users an entire month from today to design their Starlyng, not ten days; it will just need to be submitted next month. Also, we generally tackle all approvals within a day of them being submitted, so as long as a design was submitted prior to the deadline and is not outright rejected, we will accept it.

  2. That sentence was erroneously left in from last month's newsletter and has been corrected! All forms have been retained and were not cleared. No need to resubmit anything!

i see...the 10 days is mostly due to the fact that, depending on what route a user decides to take, and given that rare slots are not necessarily the easiest thing to come by for some so it offers a special opportunity, they may want to commission someone for a custom - in which case there are some custom artists who will only work on a custom for you once you actually own the relevant myo slot within your possession.

in any case, then i also wanted to ask: several species/arpgs offer official wip checks through staff that handle design approvals, in which the relevant staff will communicate officially if and everything that needs to be changed before the design continues to be worked on and eventually submitted for final approval. does starlyngs offer this at all, or does starlyngs only operate on official checks given when a final & finished myo is submitted? i am aware that #design-help in the discord exists, but from what i understand that is a community channel for design development rather than an avenue to receive official decisive input from a staff member on anything/everything that needs to be amended.

So long as you maintain your bulletin post and do not use your October Monthly MYO for anything else (until 10/10), you are certain to own it!

You may seek staff input at any point during your design process via the following means:

  • OPENING A TICKET WITH US IN #TICKET-DESK: For private and/or continuous, one-on-"one" (all Stafflyngs can see tickets) input. (A good option if you seek our opinion from start to finish.)

  • CREATING A POST IN #ASK-THE-STAFF: For public and/or one-on-"one" input. 

  • SENDING A MESSAGE IN OUR "SUBMISSION TRAITING ASSISTANCE" THREAD: Essentially the same as above; this is just our dedicated thread. (Located in #ask-the-staff [visible in the pinned post].)
