The Announcements board carries one-way traffic from the Crown and the shard's staff to the player body. Patch decrees that change live mechanics post here first, then mirror to the Royal Decrees archive on the site. Season cycles, festival windows, server-restart schedules, ban announcements, and the calendar of public ceremonies all land in this category. Replies are open but expected to be brief — questions of clarification, not debate; debate belongs in General Discussion. Treat the board as the realm's bulletin: when a rule, a window, or a date is in dispute, players are pointed back here. Older notices stay visible; nothing rotates off. If you missed a week, scroll down and read forward.
