Reading everyone's posts thus far. Bravo.
I apologize for the mistake I made in placing the game in the Freeform section and the confusion it has caused. I thought about putting it in the D&D section, but seeing as I harbor nothing but disgust for the rules of D&D on a whole, I didn't want to sully the realityBITES system with association.
So, here are some common rules to writing posts that should be notes:
If you want the character to perform a skill check (the better you'll know once you receive your character sheets), just put it in parenthesis with an OOC: in front of the request. e.g. OOC: Awareness check.).
If you wish to engage in combat, or in the event that combat erupts, you'll need to provide me with an Offense, Defense, and general purpose (such as, Fin's purpose is to stay close to Anna and see to it she doesn't get flanked). That way, I can write out as much combat as possible without having to draw it out as that can get tedious in PBP games.
Small interactions with NPCs like what Eol posted with between Fin and Blaze is fine. You can rest assured that most of the NPCs will do whatever they are told. Longer discourses and special circumstances will require my involvement.
If I think of any others, I'll share them with you. I'll endeavor to update the game every Monday for sure and will do so with the majority of players having posted for their characters. If I don't have majority, I'll hold off a week to update the game until majority is attained. If I don't have majority for three weeks running, I'll consider the game dead and close it down. An alternative to shutting the game down is removing characters from play (which is really easy to do and is usually done through character death). I'll be happy to continue the game as long as I have players willing to play.
