Tag [@Everybody]

Sometimes, when you're GMing, especially if you have lots of people, it's helpful to tag people in posts to make sure they don't get missed, but in a big game, it can be tedious to have to tag everybody if you need to inform everybody of something.

Proposing some kind of @Jig-style tag that flags notifications automatically to everybody that has posted in the thread just as if they were tagged as an individual. I appreciate that usage would have to be limited to the RP sections and probably to GMs/CoGMs, but I know from experience I'd find such a thing helpful.

Currently I resort to using the [h3] heading for GM announcements, and often end up reposting them if the thread shortly ends up on the next page, just in case it gets missed.

So how and when do we get started?

@Camerch

We wait for me to have time to more fully flesh out exactly what information I need from youse about your characters and until we have a minimum of six people who want in. I should stress (and should have stressed in the OP) that this isn't first-come-first served. I'll be asking for sheets when we hit the OoC section from everybody who wants in, and select the cast from what I get sent.

Yo Jig. I'm super into this idea, count me in. :D

@AuntFlavia

AuntFlavia likes being held captive in a hostile environment with murderers hanging around? Given that our previous experience has 100% consisted of those kinds of games, I'm astonished... :P

I'm a little afraid I'd make an utter cake of myself.

@lady horatio

You'll get into the swing of it. Your writing process is exactly the same. The only difference is that, in this, you won't know what's coming up down the line and you won't know whether or not the other players are going to try to screw you over. :P

Wink Murder [Murder Mystery - High Casual]

Just you try it in this. >:D

Wink Murder [Murder Mystery - High Casual]

Well nawr. ^^

We've been slow, but not stopped by any means, in Wolf recently, so I sent on your praise to the OoC thread to give everybody some love.

Wolf Manor

C-c-combo, for triple post:

Based on what I've seen of Wolf Manor (and I was reading), I have nothing but high hopes _{[for Wink Murder]}!

@Zordon

Just thought we could all pat ourselves on the back a little bit on what we've done so far, even if we're a bit slow atm.

Wink Murder [Murder Mystery - High Casual]

I'm too nice

@Zordon

I recommend cutting that right out before you get stuck into this. >:D

If I had to use a rapper's name to describe my interest, it would be Mos Def.

@JudgeApatow

... I don't know anything about rappers, but I get what you mean. :P

Edit:

Added to OP:

If you're an eager beaver and fancy brainstorming a character already, just remember the era is 1920's and focus on your dastardly secret that Mr. Jig has found out. A proper sheet will come when we hit OoC. Don't post them in here or anywhere else!

Well, in fairness - I saw Wolf Manor but, figured I'd try to get my foot in the door early on. :)

@Zordon

If you've seen Wolf Manor and feel like you missed a good game (and you have! :P), this should be similar enough to make up for it. ^^

Wink Murder [Murder Mystery - High Casual]

Nice to see some interest so quickly. ^^

Weird Thing - Making a Thread

- What actually happens when you try to create a thread in Advanced? Do you see "INTERNAL ERROR" or something else? Is it when you go to the "New Topic" page or when you actually submit the form to the server?

@Mahz

So, it happened again. It was simply trying to load the Guild's homepage. This time, I thought ahead:



Again, it could be some junk lurking on my computer, or some complete coincidence that the Guild was down for a split-second, but if it was ever a concern, here's what it looks like.
