Regarding the Fourth Wall Events:

We've heard around the grapevine that having a fourth wall event every six months might be a little too frequent, so we're considering switching it to just a once-a-year thing. But we'd like to hear from you guys: would you guys prefer the switch to having Fourth Wall Events only in May, or would you prefer having two per year, in November and May?

Leave your vote in the comments! Thanks, guys!

While I understand that 4th wall events can get pretty dull (especially since the characters can't fully remember the events), I felt that they were an important aspect to Route. The characters were suddenly brought into the world in an unexpected manner. It made sense (to me) that these same characters be subjected to a strange, bi-annual event that becomes clearer to some depending on trigger-words/actions.

I like them twice a year because I'm able to join in the crazy madness at a time when I am available. Later in the year I'm usually knee-deep in NaNoWriMo (or some other project) and I have to pass on playing along. I love the zaniness that comes with the 4th wall, and sometimes CR that might not have happened in-game can happen there. In some cases it can transcend into OOC discussion and eventual CR explosions! When I have a new character, I do feel a little more comfortable approaching others during 4th wall. And once I do I feel like I can go all out and have fun. ...It sets the mood, you know?

But, again, it can get a little dull to constantly wake up a character and find out that they can't remember anything. If I may suggest, perhaps one of the two 4th walls could be fully remembered by the characters and (somehow) placed as a bigger event? Something to do with whatever otherworldly powers brought them into the pokéworld?
