[INDENT][i]We had quite the debate this morning in the Discord over shared continuity and the reach one player has. To those of you who weren't there and don't want to read 700+ messages of squabbling, I'd like to reiterate that the primary goal of the game is to tell your story within a shared universe. What this means is that while we like to see elements shared across players, you're under no obligation to do so and outside of GM mandated status quos (IE Crises), nothing needs to be treated as universal.

Keep in mind that each story is told through the perspective of its narrator. The X-Men are going to be more in tune with the anti-mutant populace because they're on the receiving end of it. Wonder Woman is going to be more hesitant to work with a government who wants to persecute her for using lethal force. But neither of these stories needs to affect your character unless you want them to. 

Additionally, please bear in mind that the RP has no regulated time scale. Unless an event is referenced there's no guarantee two stories are even happening at the same time. For instance, my entire Batman arc has occurred over the course of one afternoon, excluding the Flashbacks. Doc's Spider-Man has happened over the course of days, if not weeks. So that's something else to keep in mind regarding our shared continuity. You're under no obligation to squeeze everything into your story. 

If anyone has any further questions on this, I'd be happy to discuss them with you in private.[/I][/INDENT][/INDENT][/COLOR]
