I am inerested in becoming invlved in this RPG, however I have a couple questions first.
1: When exactly is this set? I have looked over all of the information posted so far, here and on Wiki and would like to know if the RP is actually going on AFTER the Bomb or BEFORE it.
2:Where does the RP occur? Has it begun yet? If it has not begun, when is it expected too?
3:I don't have AIM or Yahoo Messenger, will these be required to take part?
4:Is this a Forum posting RPG or is it done real time, as say on an MIRC network or between members involved in Messenger conversation posting back and forth?
5:Since I don't use Wiki or completely understand its purposes, I assume sending my Profile directly to a Moderator in a Private Message on this Forum will suffice?
Aghama Bless,
Coal

Hi, Coal. Will here. 1. It seems that the majority of game setting time will be set POST-nuke, according to the info I have heard from Amy and Casey. I, however, have based some wikis in a pre-nuke setting, because that timetable presents more intrigue and depth to it in my own imagination. I am recruiting a few people to rp with me in these wikis when they are ready (soon after the Fragmented Tribe histories and my own character's history is presented in full... This should be within a few weeks, a month tops), and you are welcome to do so if you choose. To RP in Elftown wikis requires an Elftown username login. The wikis are quite easy to manipulate and post to, after just a short time of learning the ropes. Wiki stories will most likely lead up to, during, and after the nuke as well, because of the storylines they converge around. Msg me for more if interested. 2. The rp takes place in (thus far) 'the City', which should probably be given a harrish name before too much else goes on, I'm sure... My nomination is Suquamish, after one of the two native tribes that originally occupied the space near the coastline of north-western Megalithica, just some 25 due south of the big ol' Duwamish, which has been detailed in other wraeththu publications, of course. There have been some mini-sessions done between the original members mainly in Instant Message RPs, and that have not been thus far posted here. (MOD SUGGESTION: We need a place and a coordinator to archive these IM RPs!!!)Forum RP is just as welcome as our IM sessions, and preferred. If you would like to begin your own session for someone else to join in on, add a post to the 'Settings' thread in 'The RPG' section, and anyone interested can post in after yours. So far, my settings/wikis are only partially ready for rp sessions. 3. These IM services are NOT required, but preferred. If you cannot or choose not to use an IM sevice like these to RP in (or another, such as MSN or Trillian), you can instead post your RPs in the forum (as a thread), or on a wiki page (such as on Elftown) and link it to the forum. 4. Both, seems like. If you have any suggestions or opinions on the subject, refer them to Amy or Casey (sasha). I will also take any suggestions you have, but because of my time schedule, it may be a while before I can get an official answer to or from them. 5. Yes. If it looks complete and pretty, it can be sent to me, and I will post a wiki char page for you. You can use private msgs or email to send those. Indeed, -will

2:Where does the RP occur? Has it begun yet? If it has not begun, when is it expected too?
As far as starting we will not begin until there are enough players. I’m sorry I can not give you any more information than that.
3:I don't have AIM or Yahoo Messenger, will these be required to take part?
It would be very nice if you did have AIM or Yahoo, but we will not require it.
4:Is this a Forum posting RPG or is it done real time, as say on an MIRC network or between members involved in Messenger conversation posting back and forth?
5:Since I don't use Wiki or completely understand its purposes, I assume sending my Profile directly to a Moderator in a Private Message on this Forum will suffice?
Once your character's profile is approved please post it in the Profile forum.
Once the game starts all posts must be in the forum. The only exceptions are if the material starts to rate higher than a PG-13 rating because of rules Pro Boards have. These will be posted off site on the wiki.
If you are going to take anything off the board (before the game officially starts) please make sure the moderators know and you have their approval. PLEASE NOTE:
There is much the mods need to work on. We opened everything up before we were ready to start on purpose, we needed to make sure we would not only have enough players, but could recruit other mods.
Amy
