Game is currently at a minimum rate of 1 post every other day, per thread. I'll try to go faster than that whenever I can. :)
Let us know on the OOC thread that you will be absent for a time for RL obligations, illness, etc. If given enough prior knowledge, I'll either control your character in the meantime or find some reason for them to be away from the main group (whichever you prefer.)
Posts should be made in third person present, because I like to post what characters are doing as they're doing it, not tell a story of what they already did. I'd prefer us to be consistent, so if you prefer another tense, be willing to adjust... or find another game!
Try to post more than one-liners. I won't be so strict that I'll say you can NEVER post them, but generally I'd like to see more effort to write descriptive passages along with your dialogue. My Storytelling style tends to be on the descriptive side, so reciprocating lets me know you're into the story and into your character, too!
Here are descriptions of important OOC threads, so you know what to read or post in.
