ATTN: ALL - MOD POST: THE RETURN OF THE CAST LIST/PURGE
ADOPTIONS NOW CLOSED
OKAY.
We're GETTING THERE. :D
Your industrious mods are, at present, going through the old cast list with a wee fine toothcomb, sorting the undeletable characters from the deletable, and adding the former to the new cast list.
MEANWHILE, your job is not done yet. You are all to go, yet again, to the new cast list, and take a loooong, hard look at all your characters. Then, reply here, in the comments of this post, with any of those characters you'd like to give up for adoption. Please include the character's name (& fandom), journal, what you would like to happen to them if they remain unadopted (ie, either retired or deleted), and a way to get in contact with you for adoption. So, each character should look like this:
Name: Crowley (Good Omens)
Journal:![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
aj_crawley
If Unadopted: Retire
Contact: Sophie - copinggoggles[at]livejournal[dot]com, scuba soph (AIM), llemun (Y!M)
Please make a SEPARATE COMMENT FOR EACH CHARACTER.
EDIT: In addition, please think CAREFULLY about what you would like to happen to your character if they remain unadopted. If you have only brought them in a few times, if they have not really taken part in anything of consequence, if they have not really had any meaningful interactions - in short, if it wouldn't really matter if someone apped a new version, PLEASE CHOOSE 'DELETE'. Because, if you choose to retire, then that basically means that that character is off-limits to anyone else for good. And, unless you have a good reason, that's Just Plain Selfish.
I'll be re-posting a link to this post every day until Friday evening, and then I will open up the post for adoptions. So, until I post on Friday to cut the metaphorical ribbon, please do NOT reply to any of the comments in this post.

DO NOT COMMENT ASKING FOR A CHARACTER UNTIL I OPEN UP THE POST FOR ADOPTIONS. LOOK UP JUST A FEW LINES. IT SAYS IT RIGHT THERE. DO NOT PASS GO, DO NOT COLLECT £200, DO NOT SAY THANKYA.
Now Open For Adoptions
PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY. MISTAKES WILL BE SUMMARILY DELETED.
If you see a character you would like to adopt, get in contact with the mun via whatever contact info they have left in the comment. Once you have sorted out the transfer (password, backstory, existing Millicanon, etc), then, and ONLY THEN, comment in reply to the mun, with the word 'TAKEN' in the subject line.
Because some muns did not pay attention during the drive to add characters to the new cast list, they missed the bit in the repeated posts about also adding characters they planned to adopt. Therefore, depending on their level of past activity, some of the characters below may have been purged by the mods. Therefore, if you adopt one, please check:
a) whether they are on the new cast list, and
b) whether the journal is still a member and still has posting access to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
milliways_bar.
If not, please add and/or re-join.
Lastly, when you adopt a character, send an email to milliways.mods[at]gmail[dot]com, letting us know which character, who the old mun was, and who has them now.
