[QUOTE="Psion, post: 3248910, member: 172"] [b]Conduct of Game[/b] This post is the new home of the conduct of game guidelines (including character replacement.) [b]Conduct of Game:[/b] [list] [*]I expect to shoot for 3 days of postings a week. Sorry, my work schedule will soon only permit me to post at night (EST). [*]I will consider the fist month a "trial period". I don't know how my schedule is going to work out, and if it's not gelling within a month, I don't want to waste everyone's time. I will make a determination after a month about how well the game is going rather than drag it on if it's not working. [*]I will be accepting 6 initial players; all others will be wait-listed. I'll give those who have already expressed interest priority, but get those submissions in! [*]I'd like to keep things flowing. Players who don't post for a week will be moved to the wait list, and the first player on the wait list moved up. [*]I know this is not likely, but I have the week from Christmas to New Years at home. If all players are ready, I would like to kick off the game then. [*]In addition to character creation details, players may list "automatic actions", to help me speed up the game if you are not around to post a response. These can be conditional, as well as set up as "immediate" or "after 24 hours". [*]Invisible castle will be used for all rolls; put your character name in, roll you are attempting, and link to the result. The DM will make initiative rolls as well as rolls that are "hidden" as described in the DMG. [*](This is mildly a house rule, but we'll stick it here). When conducting actions in combat, all PCs who act before an NPC's initiative may act in the order they post. This should keep the flow of combat moving and help us work around people's schedules. [/list] [b]Character Death and Replacement[/b]: [list] [*]If an active player's active PC is slain, if they are not raised, the player moves to the standby list. [*]An active player may switch their PC at any interlude. Generally, take an interlude to be any time the players are not in an adventure site. [*]If a PC is slain and not raised (either because they can't be or they elect not to), the remaining members of the party weigh in on what type of character they want to see replace it -- primary arcane/psion, primary divine, primary rogue, primary warrior, or mixed. [b]I[/b] will then decide who responds to your call for help to fill in your ranks (generally, based on who is higher on the wait list.) A standby player has 24 hours to respond or I will move down the wait list. [*]An active player who does not post for a week or cannot keep up 3 posts/week may be waitlisted at my option. A currently waitlised player will be promoted to the active list as above. [/list] [/QUOTE]
