I've got an idea to propose to everyone here:  What do you think of doing a sort of "Opinions Sheet" where we put a one or two sentence blurb per other character, saying what our character might say about them?  This could also include other groups, such as the gov't, cops, Block 66 itself, and anything else you might want to add. It would be completely optional, I just think that it would be an interesting touch, and a way to get thinking about the RP itself (And a way to tell where ones character might stand with others, especially if they have been in the gang a while.  You don't necessarily have to answer about everybody, especially if you want to keep things hidden, and all the info is to be considered OOC info unless otherwise stated)

Example (Rose about Donnie): "He is a good leader, someone I follow because he earned my loyalty.  I would follow him to the gates of hell and back."
