I'm confused. She're taking OOC comments, attributing them to the WRONG deity, and making them part of the game thread?

Shenanigans must be called.

Oh, there's plenty of shenanigans going on here...

Sticks my head in to say I asked for cryptic hints in Aesir yesterday, and will probably ask for them in Pantheon tomorrow. It has been a week since deadline here, so while I know Autarch said he was not going to rush results, I am curious if there might be a cryptic hint or three on the horizon...

Cryptic hints would favour Antaka, wouldn't they?

As God of Commerce I'd rather have a level playing field!

Mercifully, very few deaths occur in crypts.

Thank you, Lady Death.
That honestly soared right past me...

New Rule:

All posts in the game thread need to be literary in format. No blockquotes. No emoticons. No abbreviations. I will go as far to say that the only emphases used should be bold or italic print and punctuation only where it is appropriate. It's a given that you're speaking, so quotation marks aren't necessary, though if you're also using narrative, please use them. A little draconian, perhaps (this really shouldn't surprise most of you), but I think it will end up adding much more to your styles. To compensate, I'll add an 'expression' thread, where you can post whatever you feel like - art, music, freestyle rap, whatever. You may hyperlink to this thread from the game thread.

Needless to say, everything posted in the game thread should be in character and in game.

Small slips are inevitable, and if I can, I'll try to just edit them. If it gets tricky or I don't have time, though, the post itself might get deleted. This doesn't mean you can't post what you did, only that it's up to you to reformat and repost it.

I don't like cryptic hints. Never have. Anyone asking for one (not now) will receive one, and I guarantee they won't like it.

eek.

Yessir.

Let me make a note of that.

You better learn from my mistake, Mr. "Ask Syl for CHs..."

A little voice said
"Be careful asking Autarch
To give cryptic hints."

Since we are being literary only in our game thread posts, a quick post here for those who may have already read Virelai's latest post in the game thread prior to this one to point out it has been edited.

...in case anyone should care.

And DPJ...

Does that mean that the Expression thread is also considered "In Character"? And, everything said in there is official?

I'd consider it in character, but not necessarily official. But then, I don't consider the game thread all that 'official.' It's really just a record of what you guys are saying to each other, official only in that sense. The expression thread is similar, but the gist is that it's not strictly verbal or straight forward. Considering you could link a youtube video... *shrug*

....g-ds, I truly suck at bantering.
may I stop now?
I expect Virelai would not...

You expect Verelai would not stop bantering?

I'm afraid that you must continue with what's in character, then.

If anybody watches The Big Bang Theory, they'll recognize the correct response to this is:

"You get even more flies with cow manure."

I don't care for this show, but must admit, that is a good come back.

I'd rather people didn't try to talk to me out of character about this game. There's a reason most of us decided to keep our characters anonymous, after all.

Anonymity
Would be easier maintained
With changed writing styles
