i'm gonna go ahead and slide my feedback right on here:
first of all, the concept of tanglewood is really amazing to me. i love tanglewood's vibe, setting, and traditions. it's overall theme is something that i personally find wonderful (kudos to whoever made tanglewood because wow, god, i love it). what initially pulled me in was the fact that it's such a stark contrast to the other clans that makes it really unique, something that stands out. a radioactive swamp, threats potentially lurking in the marshes, mASKS, and more that i found while reading through the guide.
the execution, however, is a little off-putting. i don't mind the medium pace of the clan, but it feels like it never really goes anywhere. like impy said, there aren't enough events or focus on traditions that really give muse. the july mask vigil hasn't even started yet, and it's already august. again, what drew me into tanglewood was its traditions, and i think it would really help to bank on that!! put more focus on it, really allow it to breathe in the threads, that sorta thing.
oocly... tanglewood has been a bit... unwelcoming. another reason why i joined tanglewood is because i saw a post in plotting before about how tanglewood has a really good ooc community but, so far, it's been really hard to see that. it's daunting trying to jump into established groups and it shouldn't really have to be that scary. as mentioned previously, there have been ooc/ic mixes as well, which makes it really hard to rp in tanglewood as a whole. i've personally found it difficult to post in the board because i'm afraid of that mix when i shouldn't need to be. and whenever i'm on the discord, it feels like everybody's walking on eggshells and it just really makes a stiff environment.
i love the concept of tanglewood, and i would definitely like to see it flourish. there just needs to be an improvement with how it's handled - and not just for hp's. everyone (yes, including me too) should make that individual effort to lift tanglewood up from its current situation. it has so much potential and i'm 100% willing to help it get there.
