PLOT IDEAS↴ Sometimes, the player knows best - so this is the page for submitting your plot ideas, suggestions, and proposals for the mods to look at! Lost Carnival is always open to the idea of player plots, and plans to even go as far as letting players run entire world tours, if they are so inclined. Here is an idea of what you could use this page for:
Asking for approval to run a self contained event or plot that will involve a large number of characters or make an impact on the rest of the game.
Inquiring about timing and logistical concerns regards mod plots that are currently being run.
Submitting ideas for worlds you'd like the carnival to visit, or general ideas that you'd like to see more of.
Submitting a proposal for a tour of a world that you'd like to plan and moderate! This is best used for if you'd like the carnival to go to the world your character comes from, which the mods may not be familiar with. We would be happy to accommodate something like this, but of course we would be unable to moderate a setting we are unfamiliar with ourselves.
Asking for permission to do things to NPCs or asking about what NPCs are going to do to you.
Anything else plot related!
Comment are currently unscreened, though if you want to keep a plot secret we can take it to a private channel instead. Otherwise, we'd like to leave it open so that the community has an idea of what is on the table, and so they can second ideas that they like.
This seems like it could be a fun aspect of a larger event, but I don't really want to set a precedent for events happening just because of random magical surges. Especially with things like changes (especially if it includes rare changes) because stuff like that is supposed to be relatively important, and I don't want to depreciate its impact or value by them happening too frequently or randomly.
Generally speaking, for something like this to be run as a player event, I would need a stronger hook for why it's happening and what it contributes story wise. Otherwise, it would just be the mods making up a reason for it to happen, which would ultimately take away from the point in it being player run in the first place.

I'm happy to help contribute. If this will fit in well with a larger event, then I'm happy to chip in. :)
