I'm going to try to be a little better about keeping time lines more accurate. That will mean that certain in game dates will need to be more vague so that we can allow for things moving faster or slower than we expect.
I'll try and make it clear which dates are variable so that it doesn't become a surprise.

So this is going to mean that we'll be throwing in more character downtimes, which will be nice for explaining xp expenditures.

This is SITE WIDE....a thread does not happen until its last post is made. This is why we have repeateadly asked to not link threads together with terms like last night, the next morning and what not.
The only time this does not apply is to the one Sticky per splat for large meetings that are a seat date.
This should clean EVERYTHING up. _________________

OK, cool. Just a side note, considering this, I'd really not like to end up seeing my char slammed for "dawdling" later on down the road. Just thought it was worth mentioning. _________________ Dog: Protean 1

Yes, that's good to clear up too. Since things will take longer, NPCs will expect them to take longer.
I mean, it's been over half a decade since whatever happened in this town happened. So it's not like there's a sense of total urgency.
Even the Banishers have only attacked once a month or so for the past year.

Yes, this is because I am trying to be compliant with site rules. Thanks Dred, sometimes it can be tough.
So I hope we can get used to a little bit of ambiguity with dates.

trust me its hard for me to not say "Last night at the club" I always type it and have to go back and change it to "the other night at the club" The only time I use hard dates is for the meetings and that is just so all of us remember to look for it on that date.
Only trying to help and not be seen as a hard Ass. _________________
