Hey all! I figured I'd provide some information that I would have found helpful out of the gate when I started RPing with a group like this.

As you all can probably tell, we have a habit of writing joint posts together, and in order to include everyone on the fun I thought I'd address it explicitly. Joint posts (JP's) are a great way to keep the chemistry rolling from one interaction to the next in order to frame a scene together between two or more writers (yes, we could all do one together!). This typically happens in a shared Google Doc where we can set the stage, add our character's actions, then leave a <Tag> for another writer to jump in for their character. Upon consensus, we can end the scene and one of the writers is cleared to post. It's that easy! Feel free to invite any of your fellow writers or GM's to JP with you.

Another tidbit I'd like to pass on is the wisdom of letting your GM's know any personal character plots you'd like to see brought to fruition. We want to get to know your characters as much as you do, and thus we definitely want to provide room for your characters to grow. Fill Sail or me in on what sort of arc you're thinking, or we'll just blindly lead you through our own personal plots and vendettas! That's a promise.

Sail and I are often chatting on Google Chat (formerly Hangouts), but we'd be willing to change the medium if others wanted to chat in another location. Let us know!

And that's all the wisdom I've been blessed with. Happy Fourth of July!
