NB: I'm pretty sure I've done that trick of posting something important on the last post on the previous page, so I'm gonna stick it here as well so it doesn't get missed.
Hokay, apart from one thing that's still to come, it's time to start thinking about 'log posts'.
There are a couple of things to keep in mind with the log posts.
In addition to what I said about them on the previous page...(which can be found here)
... I'd just like to add:
- You may have noticed that I've been putting 'Title cards' in front of each section. I may actually put a 'chapter list' in the Character Tab or the OP in the OoC so if any of you want to recap anything while looking for clues, it might make life easier for you. Since I (probably) won't be posting in the next section, it will fall to the first among you to post to include the 'title card' for this section.
- I'm totally trying to coordinate this on the fly here: I'm not sure if I'm doing a plot-post to introduce the next section (as stated above), and I'm not entirely sure what information to give you in the character tab or via PMs (though there will probably be some). At this stage, it's worth just thinking about what you'd like to do in the log and how you'd like to approach writing it. This RP seems to break a lot of unwritten rules of standard RPing, which I love, and if any of you wants to try something unusual or experimental, please by all means do.
- The 'log' posts also offer a chance for flashbacks to the previous night, if any of you would like to have interacted with anybody else but didn't have the time IRL or didn't feel like you have anything to write (and now do).
- I love the interaction posts, so, firstly, well done, and, secondly, don't be scared of them! They're not somehow 'separate' from the RP: they're definitely a part of it because your characters inform what this RP is, and interaction posts inform who they are. Don't feel like you need to hide them away in spoiler tags!
At this point, it's just a case of getting your breath and having a nice long think (ideally with a cocktail, but maybe that's just me).
Edit:
As far as I'm aware, Jonas, Kim, and Lynne have all gone to bed, while Tom, Marci, and Gray are unspoken for in the IC. I've been as vague as I can in the IC post so as to write them in or out, as applicable. Feel free to quibble this if the details preclude what your character would do, or, if it's close enough, clarify, if you feel necessary, how you got to bed via flashback in your log post. :)
