I have to say a lot of people have been saying just how much of a human I am. No, really. A lot of people come up to me and they tell me. They say, 'You're so normal and human' And I tell them look, we know I am a human. We've had almost eight years of the worst type of humans you can imagine. Oh my god, I can't believe it. Humans with wings and humans with dog features. Its terrible. Its just terrible. Look, if you want to know what a human is, do you want to know what human is like? I'll tell you. First of all being normal, by the way I love being normal. It's probably my favorite state of being, no it is my favorite state of being. You know what, it's probably more like that only much more normal and milquetoast. A lot. If I'm being honest, I mean, if I'm being honest. I like being milquetoast.

Starting from Day 2, would it be possible to have a single thread one can subscribe to to know all the things they should know/do. Just a list of links to the relevant posts is good enough I'll say, as long as they're added in new posts, not sneaky edits.

Not quite what you're looking for but remember to check out the memorable moments threads since people do include those in there a lot of the times.
Not sure what you're looking for either, but I can copy-paste stuff from previous games about tribes and such. I remember we had a big thread for that in Dawn 2.

Mostly, just a thread I can subscribe to and that pings me if and only if there's a roll I must make or similar concern that must absolutely be addressed.

For example, right now, the only way to survey the festival mechanical side is to stalk that thread every couple of hours to check if Birb hasn't happened to post between two PC rolls, and it's kinda stressful, FOMO and all.

That sounds like a thread players could make that people post to when something new is posted.

Often we do have one of our more spreadsheet capable folks start organizing fail/pass lists. Just nobody felt that bug yet I guess.

My search-fu is failing me right now.

What will be the number of In-Character days?

At which point is it the end of a Session for resetting things like Great Destiny, Luck, etc? Will XP be rewarded at the end of these sessions?

See I have a friend named Destiny.

It's definitely a lot harder to catch when in the midst of such busy threads. And the rolls thread is similarly quickly buried in rolls, so it's tough to see the "and make another roll" posts. Maybe more GM red text for visibility on those posts? Vs. red just for the link. XD
