these games were once listed but have since closed their doors: - [Shattered MU](https://writing-games.org/shattered-mu/) - [Excelsior MU](https://writing-games.org/excelsior-marvel-superhero-mu/) ## Frequently Asked Questions - [What is this calendar for?](#calendar-purpose) - [Why should I submit my game's anniversary?](#why-submit) - [How do I add a new anniversary to the calendar?](#add-new) - [How will I know if my event has been added?](#how-to-know) - [How do I add all the events to my calendar at once?](#all-events) - [How do I add individual events to my calendar?](#individual-events) - [How can I set up notifications for an event?](#notifications) ### What is this calendar for? The purpose of the calendar is to highlight games both new and old, bring more exposure to the genre as a whole, and draw attention to events and holidays that are relevant to the MU\* community. ### Why should I submit my game’s anniversary? Well, it's a free backlink from a relevant website, but it's up to you. :) You should only submit your game’s anniversary if your MU\* is open to the general public and you want people to know about it. ### How do I add a new anniversary to the calendar? To add your game’s anniversary, click the β€œSubmit an event” button and fill out the form. ### How will I know if my event has been added? If you submitted a valid email address with the event details, you’ll receive an email letting you know that your event has been added to the calendar. ### How do I add all the events to my calendar at once? Click the β€œSubscribe to calendar” button, which will allow you to add the calendar to your calendars page. The advantage of doing this is that you will see the most up-to-date information, including any new events that are added in the future. To add the calendar without auto-sync, use the "Download" button, instead. ### How do I add individual events to my calendar? Use the β€œAdd to calendar” link beside the event you want to add. This will download the .ics for that specific event, which you can then import into your calendar of choice. ### How can I set up notifications for an event? For notifications, single-event copies, or hiding individual events, check your calendar app's documentation - the exact steps differ between Google, Apple, Outlook, and others.
