Freeing up character slots

With the new rule about waiting 30 days after the character has gone into vacation mode, how do we tell when we have that empty slot?

Should I be paying attention as to when my character has gone into vacation mode and start counting down or is there a way to tell?

Thanks in advance. <3

I think it's 3 days of not moving or doing anything else that would be considered an "action" on a character that causes it to go into vacation mode, at which time it becomes invisible on the grid. My guess is that the slots open up after 3- days from then. You can always check the character sheet from a different character to see if it says vacation mode on the top, too. If you lose count of the days, just try to make a new charry and I am sure it will stop you from doing so if the time isn't right.

Yeah, I guess.

It says you can have a ‘free’ slot once your character has been in vacation mode for 30 days or more. So, I guess I should have been counting down?

Otherwise, yeah… I suppose I just wait until August and then try to see if it’s been a month yet. I think I stopped moving them in June sometime, but, I don’t know. >.<

Yesterday in itself felt like a week! I’ve lost all sense of time. O.O

Ok... So, I signed up without any hitches.

I'm not sure if it has or has not been 30 days.

Urm... yeah. <.<

I've now made it so it says "(Inactive Mode)" instead of "(Vacation Mode)" when a character hasn't moved for 30 days or more. Hope that helps.

Do characters in SR still not count towards character slots? Or is there also a limit on the number you can have in the SR as well?

I know it's an odd question but I could have swore at one point it was discussed or added that you could only have a certain number of active SR'd characters as well.

Only 1 of your SRed characters will count as a non-active character (if they are active). If you have 2 walking around in the SR, then the second one will count towards your total characters.
