For those new to pbp (or at least new to pbp with me as GM)
I will generally post once a day (more if I have time) if you haven't posted in roughly a 24 hour period I will skip your turn/NPC you in so we keep the pace of the game going.
I will roll initiative for everyone (and sometimes some other dice rolls on a case by case basis, like perception to determine surprise)
Since it is possible for you to delay until some other player has done something I'm fine with you taking turns in the order in which you post. If you don't want to do something until something else happens mention in in your post and we'll fit it in when it happens. If you ready an attack (or expect an attack of opportunity to happen, please roll your own dice for to hit and damage already..they might get used, but if it does come up we don't have to wait for you to respond..or I don't have to roll for it..which means you can't blame me when you miss ;)
For example a turn might go something like this
init
Player A, B
enemy 1
Player c
enemy 2
Bold is up
Player A wants to have flanking, so he delays
A will move next to enemy 1 as soon as he flanking and stick his dagger into 1's back [dice=To hit 1] [dice=damage vs 1]
Player B will do something (like cast a spell)
Enemy 1 will do something
Player C will then move up to an enemy and attack it..after which Player A's turn triggers
I'll take enemy's 2 turn
If something messes up the flow (like enemy 1 knocking player A down) we'll just have to flexible and adjust..I'll try to use my best guess if you haven't altered your own action by the time I post again.
I'll use googledoc maps for combat, you can move your own character around, but please be careful to not move the map itself since it will mess stuff up.
I will sometimes use spoiler blocks with a listed skill and DC, if you make the DC you are free to look at the spoiler and act on the information provided.
This will most of the time include (but not be limited to): (Monster) knowledge checks [If I didn't provide one, you can still roll for knowledge checks..I might just forgot about it or only had time for a quick update]
Some hidden stuff needing perception checks to be found, you can still search for stuff when you feel like it it, but for example looting a room after combat it helps speed things up.
Like this:
If you have any questions feel free to ask.

If you want.
Some people create a new character for each pregen they play including an unique name (Heavy_Poog for example). What I did was create one character named Revvy's Pregen and I use that every time I play a pregen. That way I have less clutter in my character list.
As long as you change the profile picture (and stat bar)to something that's easily recognized as your pregen it shouldn't be a problem.
You can also use your main profile if you want, as long as it's clear that it's your pregen. For example start every post you make with
<Pregen; Goblin name>

Hello, sorry for late. Reta was killing squirrel and wanted to see GM wait.
Poog always ready.
As a note I'll be at a con this weekend. Friday-Monday.
I should still manage a post a day, but am quite unlikely to manage any more than that.
Please feel free to bot me as necessary.
I'll be in Canada the 4th-9th. I should have internet and manage at least a post a day but will likely be a bit slower than normal.

Since this is run as part of the PbP Gamesday;
At the end of a session, each player at the table gets to roll a d20. On a 20 or a 16, that player has earned one of our amazing boons! They get to roll on a d6 to determine which boon they get access to.
So feel free to roll your own D20 (if for some reason someone hasn't rolled when I report I'll roll)
Incase someone is wondering why it's a 20 or a 16 instead of a 1 or 20 as it was previous gamesdays, the 16 isn't a typo..it's because the year is 2016.
