@GowiWhen I have several games, when people tag me, it lets me know that someone has posted because I don't check all of my games. The ones I GM I do, but as a player, nope. I only look when someone tags me because there are several games that just sit there for days with no activity and I don't have time to waste on those games. I'm just asking you to be courteous to your fellow players. It's something I want everyone to do when it's their turn.
As for your character, if that's what you want to do, no problem. If
@HowlsOfWinter has issues posting because of it, then she can easily PM me, and I'll give you both something to work with. But as a GM, you can expect me to harp on anyone who I feel might constipate the flow of this game because my job is to keep it moving.
