Alrighty ghouls and guisels! Just in time for Halloween, we have THREE major Staff Change announcements, as well as an update on the December event and the 2015 Event Pricing Options!
1) Please welcome Bo Brandon back to your friendly neighborhood Dark Passages Plot Staff!!!
We love Bo, and are very happy to have him back on board full time in a staff position! As most of you know, he had a major hand in the creation of our 1.0 rules and world setting. We look forward to having him back on the team to spread his own special brand of evil and chaos!
2) Please welcome Calvin "Stray" Clower to Campaign Committee!!
Calvin has graciously agreed to take over the vacant Logistics position as well as to assist with lower tier plotlines and event-specific modules!
3) Please wave to Dennis Desinise as he steps down from Plot Staff to Campaign Committee.
Unfortunately, due to work and life, our beloved Dennis is having to (hopefully temporarily) step down from his full Plot Staff to Campaign Committee. He is still Staff, just a lower tier, and will still serve as a Safety Martial, Combat Martial, and Assistant Monster Town Manager whenever he can make it to site for an event. We will miss having him on Team Evil, but Team Chaos is just as important overall, so please don't forget to tell him you still love him and thank him for the great job he's done with Evil these past 2 seasons!

DECEMBER EVENT UPDATE:
We are proud to announce that the December Campover Event is officially changing from a 1-day with social option to a FULL THREE DAY EVENT!! <applause> We will be working this week on updating the Event Page on Facebook, as well as the Event listing on the website.
That means that the Saturday-Only pricing option will be going away, so please do not be alarmed at the changes. Fort Yargo is closer enough to town that most people can go home and return on Saturday morning if they are opposed to tent camping in December. Due to this change, we WILL be running a Newbie Module on Friday evening as usual. Please feel free to do so if you wish, rather than chance getting sick. Rough times for Saturday will remain the same, with things getting started around 10am, give or take.
----------------------------------------
2015 PRICING CHANGES:
We will be changing our Base Event Price for 3-day events from $60 to $50 for the 2015 Season and the foreseeable future. This means that single event pre-reg pricing will be $45 now, rather than $55. This will be for ALL 2015 3-day events, be they cabin or primitive sites.
This will not effect the December 2014 event pricing, it will remain at the current 2014 Campover 3-Day Rate of $40 atd / $35 pre-reg.
In addition to this, we will be adding an OPTIONAL $10 Food Package, which can be purchased in advance or at the door, which will include Feast and basic meals, menus TBD as each event gets closer. If you do not purchase the Food Package items in the Tavern, including Feast, may be purchased A-La-Cart. Specific prices will be posted after the first of the year when we have a chance to iron out all of the logistics of this, and will also be posted on site each event. More details of this will be announced as we iron them out.
2015 PREPAYMENT OPTIONS:
As requested, we have evaluated, voted, and begun to execute several prepayment options. We are working on finalizing the Paypal Buttons and will have more details and at least some payment access up by Friday. Each tier will have perks, which we will announce with said details later this week, so stay tuned! These payment options will carry forth into future seasons as well. We are currently targeting 8 3-day events for the 2015 Season. These options will NOT include Convention admissions or other social event costs.
All options below will include Priority Cabin Assignment Requests and Priority Monster/Tavern Shift Requests based on your tier.
All options below will grant you access to Downtime Responses no later than midnight on the Sunday prior to the event (1 week early).
Each option will have additional perks that will be announced with the specific "fine print" details later this week.
Tier 1 = Season Pass - $300 (single lump sum payment)
This option will include all standard events during the 2015 calendar year. Missed events do NOT roll forward.
Tier 2 = Season Pass - Installment Payments - $300 (total due by 2-15-15, may be made in chunks or monthly installments)
This option will include all standard events during the 2015 calendar year. Missed events do NOT roll forward.
Tier 3 = Event Block - $150 (single lump sum payment, includes 4 rolling events)
This option may be used for any four standard events during the 2015 calendar year. Missed events WILL roll forward to future seasons.
Tier 4 = Single Event Pre-Reg ($5 off standard at-the-door pricing)
This option may be used to purchase single event admissions as desired.
