@VermillionOkay, so can I lightly toss a few ideas at you? (I'm into this. Count me in whether you take this or not.)
So, what about this. Whatever you start with for a CS, you have to be with no supplies. Whatever happened, you lost it to thieves, you ate all your food, you dropped your supplies and can't find them, doesn't matter. But you've got nothing save for the clothes off your back (extremely helpful in their own right, though). This means, however villianous someone might want their character to be, they can't be a hoarder overlord without genuinely working for it, at least somewhat.
You start each IC day with a post that has worldly things in it. Weather, temperature, and all that. But you also have a sort of list of things that need to be done, either every day or in general. People/groups who've done these things are marked as having done them, and the post is updated every so often. It could be put in the first OOC post, if you wanted, just to make it easy to access.
And I do also really like the hub & hub checklist ideas that
@MatthiasAngel gave.
