[@Gentlemanvaultboy][@Lmpkio][@Hylozoist][@Bright_Ops][@DracoLunaris][@Argetlam350][@Etherean Fire][@Simple Unicycle][@Lugubrious][@ToadRopes][@Zarkun] When you guys count your word counts, I don't want you using the quotes of other characters as a means to boost your word count. I want your word counts to [u]not include the quotes from other characters[/u]. In order to control this, I'm going to be distributing XP every 2 GM posts, specifically for Word Count (expect XP this next GM post). This will allow characters to level up and earn abilities or weapons before, during, or after a boss fight. I will also be giving Word Count XP at the end of boss fights. Understand that a boss doesn't have to die or be defeated in order for characters to earn XP for the boss fight. You will get credit for having participated in the boss fight period. Sometimes, the story line will result in a different conclusion.
