Posting Format

[Storyteller]

Just a note to lay out the format for posting that i would like.

Character speech should be in bold, so it stands out.

"Hello"

Thoughts, if you want to post them should be in italics.

What is he doing?

Out of Character information should be in brackets and italics.

(What are we doing in this scene anyway?)

These rules aren't concrete, it doesn't really matter if you don't bother with them, but i would much prefer it if we were all working to the same format, plus, it makes the posts look rather neat.

Cheers!

If I can get the game going again, I'm going to try a slightly new format. Each post will have a heading that will give some information about who is in the scene, where they are who's posting and what the posting character knows about the others.

for example:

**Posting Character**
other characters
clan/race
location
date and time

see below: This would be a current heading in the Dark House thread of a post made by me for Wic. The time and date are off the top of my head, just as an example.

**Wic**
Trey, John, Michael, Jessie, kindred female
Nosferatu, Daeva, Mekhet, ??, Gangrel, ??

This may seem like a bit of work, but usually it's just a matter of cutting and pasting with some minor editing.

This will allow characters to move along different timelines and it will remind you of the where, when and with who of the scene.
