To recap some things mentioned in the rules section
no forced interaction or random killing.
No use of LKH's characters as PC's or NPC's. Original characters only.
Posts to be written in third person.
Now to move on
The following is what I'd like to see done in every post. If it's forgotten your forgiven but please try to remember. Most the games I have belonged to have had this and I find it very helpful.
First off I want a subject line. Just a little information about what the post is about it doesn't need to be anything extravagent.
ex: SUBJECT LINE: The Aftermath
Second I'd like time of day established.
ex: TIME: 3:00 a.m.
Putting the date on the post is especially important due to the fact that since some people move faster than others I have changed the game so not everyone may be on the same date for there characters. Also because of this more than one character could be doing something in two different time frames so as not to confuse others please remember to put this on the post. ex: DATE: May 6th
So people know where your character is stating the place is a good idea. If your character happens to be moving about in the post either name all the posts or the one that most of the post takes place at. ex: PLACE: Jarrett's mansion
Mention all characters that are going to be used or mentioned in the post.
CHARACTERS: Jarrett, Nyx, Nekane
MENTIONS: Too many to name
Mention who the author is or in case of collabs author's.
ex: AUTHOR: Ashe
A note line is good for place to put anything that you may want to warn others about such as strong language, the amount of violence,as well as sexual activity. This way they are warned and can decide weather or not they choose to read or not.
ex: NOTES: Violence
All together it should look like this:
SUBJECT LINE: The Aftermath
TIME: 3:00 a.m.
DATE: May 6th
PLACE: Jarrett's mansion
CHARACTERS: Jarrett, Nyx, Nekane
MENTIONS: Too many to name
AUTHOR: Ashe
NOTES: Violence
At the end of the post it would be a good thing to establish weather your wanting to tag in someone, anyone or if it's going to be continued in another post.
ex: Tag: Anyone
ex: TBC:
Also if you need to make an out of character comment (OCC) this can either be put in at the top or the bottom of the post just make that you mention it's that it's out of OCC.
OCC: The game begins
Also I realize not everyone is the best speller in the world or best with gramatics I am one of these people so if you can please use a spell checker or at least look over your post for any mistakes you may have made. Some things may slip by you or you may forget to spell check understood I'm one of the few that fall into those last two as well. However if your disturbing people too much by the way you write something will have to be done about it. First it's just a mention to you saying "Hey so and so we're having problems reading you're posts." I haven't had to really go beyond that. Trust me I'm not looking for the greatest authors in the world I just want everyone to be able to easily read your post.
