Hallo! 
And welcome to your regularly scheduled Monday Happy Hour and Overall Game Status Report.
First off, Apps are closed, and those that were submitted will be processed soonish.
(If you app'd now would be the PERFECT time to make sure all Is have dots and all Ts have crosses.)

Secondly, I'm thinking about formalizing the Plot Submission process a bit.
And by "formalizing" what I mean is instituting a bit of a style-guide for the email, that way it's possible to search for them in Gmail.
If I get super fancy I can post them on the Mod Google Calendar, but in the meantime I'd prefer to be able to answer the question:
"What do we have going on in August?"
Give me your thoughts under the extra special comment section below!

Thirdly, Tag Fest is a project that's been ongoing for a few months now, and I think we're at a point where we're just about ready to start releasing some tags back into the wild. 
SO! If you have a character that does NOT have a tag, please make your way over to our Tag Request post (https://milliways-mods.dreamwidth.org/2912.html) and get filling-outing!

Fourthly, for folks with retired characters. Your annual deadline to resubmit a request for continued retirement quickly approaches.
This is your only warning. 

And now...finally!
Happy Hour shifts for this week include:

Today! Or what's left of it
Tomorrow! All day!
Wednesday!
Thursday!
Friday!
Saturday!
Sunday!

First to claim, first to serve.
Have at!

I submit a lot of plots, so I'll definitely try to use this.

Can this get into the FAQ so we can find it in the future? Great idea btw.

That's the plan!
I just wanted feedback before I went and made a unilateral decision.

I think this is a good idea. Is the calendar something we can all see? It might help people decide when to do a plot if they can see clearly what's booked.

It is now!
I've added a link to the side-bar for the Mod Journal...just as a test.
