 Plans are for public voting (sometime week of April 1st) followed by official results out no later than the 8th of April.

Thank you for the update! 

Where is all the planning for this?  I can't seem to find it in the forum - is it on Substack?

No problem! Outside of the Brethren Court here on eurobricks, most of the conversation has been on the Lego pirates discord in the BotBS tabs.

Thank ye for the update!  I'll catch up on that in the near future.

But for the benefit of BoBS newcomers or general observers who haven't joined the Discord, it may be beneficial to post some information on voting and winner selection in the forum so they know what to expect.

For sure. We've been in discussion about that, but I'll pass that along to the rest of the crew as well. With the onset of the new ERA we hope to all be more active here as well.

I'm having trouble locating that discussion nor do I have permission to post in the botbs-chat channel.

So I that I am able to write a blog post for the weekend to instruct people on how to vote, I'm looking for the relevant information to include.

 @evancelt can give you the proper permissions to view it. I'll let everyone on discord know as well what you're looking for. 👍

Will I be able to participate in future instalments of brethren of the brick seas if I missed submitting this round? I can try to pull something together if it’s required.

There will certainly be more challenges in the near future and ERA 3 of Brethren of the Brick Seas will tentatively be launching this Summer allowing a whole new wave of players to join, build, and experience the fun! Keep an eye out for upcoming info.

Yes! The idea is indeed to use these “TC” (transition challenges) as a way to both keep our world active as we finish redefining the “game rules”, and to let external people know about it!

Apart from the challenges, you could join a faction and start telling your story whenever you want, even if some mechanics of the game are currently under revision.

 In general, you can enter the game at any time. At the beginning, older players will probably have more accumulated “points”, but this doesn’t really matter for the game dynamics!

I built a MOC, and I’ve came up with a short story to go along with it. I’m hoping to have it put together this weekend to share with all of you!

I’ve read somewhere that there’s a Discord. Is it active? It might be easier if I drop my questions there (I read a lot of the lore and boy there’s a lot)

I think I grasp most of the starting points. I have created my character and know what faction I’d like to join. I also created a couple MOCs to aid in story telling. Hopefully I can get it all ready before the deadline!
