It's always good to keep things clear just in case, even with long-time players. I for one didn't even think it (and like Neo, found it hilarious). Then again, I got off light, considering. ;)

A dedicated correspondence thread wouldn't be amiss, but one thread per player would be a great deal of clutter, I think. If we're concerned about being able to sort the letters, the buttons should do it... probably.

Sorry if my letters have confused anyone, by the way. They were just meant as little fun things for people who had played in the previous campaigns, not as anything meant to be important (unless Cattia decides to start reading the Paladin's letters, I have no idea why she would - but if she does, there they are! She can read them!)

I guess if we're all being drags, I'll note that I'm usually used to certain OOC notes being in the OOC thread (things like forms of address or rules corrections, not things like Cattia's helpful "here is how to interact with my character right now" notes). This is pretty much a nitpick, though, and I can adapt if people like it that way.

Like Isy, I'm used to past tense because that's how the books I've read are written, and I've been using it in all my campaigns since I started gaming. I can't say I even notice tenses very much?

As far as threads go, I'm generally a believe in having one thread for 'mechanics' and 'needed information' -- Stuff like how to spend RPs, any houserules, setting particulars, etc. And one thread for cutscenes and letters and the like (maybe one big post per PC letter writer, with new letters getting edited in?)

OK! Now we have a topic for correspondence! I have put Isy's and Revka's letters over there...please let me know if there are others I should do the same for.

I just got diagnosed with mono today. I'll try to post but only if I'm feeling up to it.

Wow. :shock: I hope you get better as soon as possible. Please do post if you can, but no worries. I know mono can be miserable.

:lol: I was considering having him fumble around for a description and then whip up a silent image of what it all looked like, but that did seem a little too YouTubey.

Soon all of Hazlan will have the story of how Lena and Cattia met:

...I now feel an overwhelming urge to say 'nice haircut' to Cattia.

I just realized that I never said when Vasili's discussion with Cattia is taking place in the Prologue. It's edited now, but I figured I ought to let everyone know that it's taking place on Forbearance Red Wisdom--about three days after the talk with the Jarenberg.

Look on the bright side. When the monsters attack, you're the only in the party with hitpoints or AC or saves.

So, bit of a favor, those who are mods - The Whistler forgot his password, and then apparently the FoS website has decided his email is not a thing that exists (despite him getting PM notifications sent to it periodically). Is there any way that could be rejiggered to a state where he could actually interact with the forums?
