Last Minute Rule Additions
Sep. 10th, 2018 05:49 amWe’ve received some asks lately in regards to requesting a Shepard’s gender in this exchange and would like to address it.
This exchange began with the desire to create for ships not based around the player characters. Loyalty Missions was formed around the idea of not stressing about depicting someone else’s OC or world state, and we’d like to hold true to the heart of this exchange by enacting the following rule:
No World State Customization Requests Outside of Game Endings.
This applies to Shepards and Pathfinder Ryders as well as that would be a customization. We also believe in the creativity of the gifter. That being said, we would also like to include the rule of:
No Background Ships Unless It Was An Official Request.
To clarify, approved NPC ships for the exchange that the giftee asked for can also be in the background. That does not mean written in ships. Requests should not include written in ships. This also means background Shepards and Ryders should not be in any ships as they are not an NPC.
We understand that this decision might seem unpopular but we wish to stick to the original idea behind the exchange and this is how we best do that. There are other exchanges out there that allow such specific requests. If you wish to find some that better suit your needs, check out @bioticfox’s Mass Effect Calendar.
We apologize for the late addition to the rules. This is our first year running.
