[the_librarians]

Applications are: OPEN

They will close on: whenever we decide to close them. But it definitely won't be til after May 1st at the earliest.

Reserves open a week before applications open. Applications will remain open until further notice, which will not be less than two weeks. What does this mean? Applications may be sent any time, however applications will only be reviewed and replied to after the app period opens. So I can send my app before apps open? Yes, but it won't be looked at until apps open. If you wish to reverse a character please do so here. Getting in an app first will not reverse a character for you. All applications for a character will be looked at and reviewed before a decision is made. Can I still send my app after the app period closes? Yes, if you would like, but they will not be reviewed until next time apps open. If you miss the closing time or send your app within a day after apps close, you will receive an email asking if you want to wait until next app period. If you do not answer within two weeks or reply no, the apps will be deleted without review. If you reply yes then the apps will sit unreviewed until the next time the app period opens. Where do I send my app? Please send it to thelibrarymods@gmail.com with the subject title "APPLICATION - CANON NAME - CHARACTER NAME - RESERVED/UNRESERVED/CHALLENGE". If you do not label your subject as such, it may get lost in our inbox. Please be sure to send yourself a copy of your app, because we are not responsible if your app gets lost and you do not have a copy saved. For more info about the game and the apping process please visit the FAQ, or ask a question in the comments below.
