Scene

Revision as of 20:44, 27 December 2014
A Scene is typically defined as one hour of game time. In a play by post setting, this is reflected by a single thread. These are the specific rules for how we handle Scenes and keep continuity from getting snarled.
Contents |
Regular
This is a public or private Scene which is not a Sticky thread.
- Scenes 'happen' when the thread closes/Scene ends
Sticky
This is a Scene which is typically mandatory attendance (Court, etc.), an event/party that people might want to attend, or a thread/plot that will take longer than normal (combat involved, etc).
- Your character can be in multiple Stickies with ST permission
- Stickies 'happen' on the day the thread begins
Chat
These are Scenes done in real-time in the Chat rooms.
- Chat Scenes should be logged and posted
- No 'cybering'
- Private Crossover Scenes (involving two different splats) require (all) ST approval
- Please refrain from talking about inflammatory topics or topics that may lead to arguments. For example:
- The Validity of other games / sites.
- Politics
- Religion
- Any recruiting for IC organizations, such as Covenants or Courts, need to be done In Character.
- Recruiting for other PbP sites is absolutely prohibited.
Private Message
These Scenes are typically between two characters with positions and in-character responsibilities, allowing for character development and so that other characters don't get 'stuck' waiting.
- PM Scenes require (all) ST approval
- PM Scenes should be logged and posted
Communications
These threads are typically phone calls, text messages, emails, or letters.
- Comms happen in real time; once posted, the message is sent/delivered
- If there is a question of continuity, the originator's time-line supersedes the recipient's
Social Groups
These are private forums which contain Scenes visible only to the member of the group.
- Group creation requires ST approval
- Adult content is allowed if mutually agreeable to all group members
