pAndA mAn 1994 (8:44:48 PM): like two days in the RP have gone by in a month
Firemastersasuke (8:44:57 PM): Yarly.
Firemastersasuke (8:45:02 PM): We need to make it more real time.
pAndA mAn 1994 (8:45:13 PM): How though?
Firemastersasuke (8:45:23 PM): Alright.
Firemastersasuke (8:45:28 PM): We need scouts.
Firemastersasuke (8:45:33 PM): Role Play moniters
pAndA mAn 1994 (8:45:41 PM): eli is one
Firemastersasuke (8:45:43 PM): When someone makes a topic.
Firemastersasuke (8:45:51 PM): They issue a start time.
Firemastersasuke (8:45:55 PM): Whenever the topic ends.
Firemastersasuke (8:46:08 PM): The estimate about how long the topic would've taken according to real timing.
Firemastersasuke (8:46:11 PM): Issue an end time.
Firemastersasuke (8:46:22 PM): The exceptions would be the dorm topics.
pAndA mAn 1994 (8:46:23 PM): sounds good
pAndA mAn 1994 (8:46:33 PM): like classes would take most of the day
Firemastersasuke (8:46:42 PM): Yeah.
Firemastersasuke (8:46:47 PM): We have one class a day.
Firemastersasuke (8:46:49 PM): That class.
Firemastersasuke (8:46:51 PM): Is about.
Firemastersasuke (8:46:53 PM): Lets say.
Firemastersasuke (8:46:56 PM): 6 hours long.
Firemastersasuke (8:46:58 PM): >_>
Firemastersasuke (8:47:04 PM): Yes, it's long.
Firemastersasuke (8:47:07 PM): But it's a class a day.
Firemastersasuke (8:47:10 PM): It has to be long.
pAndA mAn 1994 (8:47:23 PM): mmhmm
Firemastersasuke (8:47:34 PM): We'll have it start at ten.
Firemastersasuke (8:47:37 PM): a.m.
Firemastersasuke (8:47:42 PM): End at 4.
pAndA mAn 1994 (8:47:50 PM): and duels take around an hour
Firemastersasuke (8:47:50 PM): Curfew would be 9 p.m.
Firemastersasuke (8:47:53 PM): Yeah.
Firemastersasuke (8:48:15 PM): Once curfew hits.
Firemastersasuke (8:48:32 PM): Students must return to their dorms.


Summary for all you tl;dr people: We're making the RP more real time so a day will go by much quicker. We need people to sign up for role play monitors, which would basically go OOC and label a topic with a time.

When signing, say something short and sweet about why you would like to or something to make us luff you more and be more likely to choose you. Cause honestly, I bet at least 3/4ths of this site would be perfect for any staff position.

Rou and I will choose from the people that sign up.

So like... a day in the RP would be equivalent to an IRL day or something? I don't quite understand...

How about for all of us on different clocks? Timezones FTW.

Also people can't just be on 24/7 just for this board.

A day in the RP would more or less be a few days IRL. Instead of two weeks.

Board will have a time it goes by. Kinda like Neopian Standard Time on Neopets.

Probably go EST since thats what most of us have.

I wont back down!
I can try to moniter. Though I do agree, I was gonna have my main character go to bed at the duel with yusuke, and Kiseiko go after 'two hours', which I was gonna post whatever.

Since I don't completely get how this is gonna go still, either, if you put me up to this, gonna have to show me how this gonna work, maybe an example and an explination would be nice. Only if you put me up to this, you guys can take care of this otherwise.

I guess I could try monitoring. I'm free to do so most of the day on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and weekends.

On a slightly unrelated note, should the Rules ever get posted, we'd better be sure to add that. >_>

Wouldn't this make things even more complicated? It's hard enough already.

I thought of this a while ago, but it really isn't fair to everyone, considering that some of us live in significantly different time zones.
