----------
I Know What You Did Last Summer
Last Date to buy is August 16th.
Last Date to send in Production for the I Know What You Did Last Summer bonus is August 16th at midnight.
------------
Respec
Labor Day, Monday, September 4th, is the last day to send in your character respect to the Library.
--------------
Registration for Festival (September Event)
Registration goes live on Tuesday, September 12th at 5pm. A post will be made at that time with a link to the website and the PayPal donation page. The tests of the registration form on the webpage went insanely well, so I’m going to continue to encourage the use of that form.
(If you are registering multiple people, bypass it and use the mythicsignup@gmail.com address directly.)
I will post instructions on how to register closer to the event, but the webform is really the biggest change, so if new players want to look at the pinned/saved/whatever FB is calling it these days, feel free.
-----------------
Character Creation and the Heroes’ Library
Each marshal has their own cut off for when they stop accepting character creation applications/conversations. Check in with the new player liaisons and your marshal to find out yours. Aeldirmann is one of the latest, I believe, and I won’t approve any new player I have not already spoken with after Wednesday, September 20th (for Festival).
NO marshal will approve a new player during check in.
The library closes at 11:59 pm on Friday, September 22nd to new submissions and updates so that your character sheet can be ready and waiting for you at check in.
--------------
Production
Production closes for the pre-production bonus at 11:59 pm on Friday, September 22nd. (This does not include the Summer Pass. The deadline for that is August 16th.)
----------------
Medical History forms
Everyone who has a pulse and attends the Festival (September Event) needs to fill out a medical history form and liability waiver. The medical history form is found on the website and in the forms section of the FB page.
You can fill it out using a PDF reader, Open Office, Pages, Microsoft Word, a plain text editor — whatever you use to type and edit documents, and then email it to amcar16@aol.com. If you are emailing it, they are due at 11:59 pm on Wednesday, September 27th. (Quickest method, most private method)
Otherwise, they are due on Friday, September 30th during checkin.
More on how to do this will be posted closer to the event, but the instructions from Season Seven are pinned/saved/whatever FB is calling it these days, so feel free to review them.
--------------------
Mythic Season Eight Store
All items are on sale through Friday, September 30th when you check in. If you are not attending the September event, it will close at midnight.
*There are a limited number of Monster Be Gones. If the number available falls under ten, I will make a post. I will also post if we sell out of them prior to the event.
**Pay It Forwards are available year round. While this has usually been a directed purchase, a fair number of players have been buying them and donating them to the game. Gary and I think this is an AMAZING idea, and as we often are, are blown away by the kindness and generosity of our player base. We are discussing with the New Player Liaisons the best way to distribute these tickets.

Festival
Arrival time and check in for Festival aka the Carnival of Carnies aka the Viceroy’s Least Favorite Party starts at 5pm on September 29th!
Check in is going to be MUCH busier at this event than any other of the season since everyone’s Medical History forms are due. Please keep this in mind as you arrive no earlier than 5pm.
I will update and post How to Check In closer to the event, but last seasons is still in the pinned/saved/whatever FB is calling it these days section.
