Men of the West opened in October 2017, has been rolling for 1 year and 5 months now. Thank you to everyone who has been with us thus far, whether you're old or new!
As things move on, and most of the characters on site seemed to have journeyed through about a year of in-character time, we will now consider the year on site 3011 of the Third Age; eight years before the War of the Ring.
The site timeline is of course free-flowing and anyone is free to continue writing 3010 plots if you still have gaps to fill in. Please continue to date thread titles with the [month/year] so we have some flow and can add major story-changing events to our timeline. As for new characters and new members, we will suggest they begin in the year 3011 so the slate is open and clean for new events of everyone's making! Of course, feel free to add anything from our listed timeline into character backstories.
Your character biographies are always open for edits if you wish to add events to them, edit character families as things change, edit their ages to match the new year, etc.
Thank you for the adventures, and may we have many more to come!
