This will be the main discussion and gameplay thread for your team. You will use this thread moving forward for all internal discussions and gameplay actions specific to your team. The GM's will monitor all five game threads daily and check in as needed.
The main recruitment thread will remain active and serve as a global discussion and announcement thread for the game. The GM's will notate things such as the completion of a round or other global game related information. Unless otherwise instructed, post your game actions in your team gameplay thread and not the global one. The GM's will handle cross-group communication and interaction if and when that should arise.
Please proceed with your team discussion specific to your character design, party makeup, party benefactor/driving force (how is it your team is one of the four contestants to this trial?), equipment provisioning, etc.
When your party has completed their build please notate this for the GM's so that they can perform a quick verification of your character. We do not intend to delve into the details of each and every character, we expect everyone is honest and fair in their build and do not purposely try to cheat. If someone catches a mistake we ask that you simply correct it and we move on. We're here to have fun!
While a central theme is not required for your team, you have a unique opportunity here to build a party that defies many of the "standard party creation" rules. We hope you have fun with this and create an interesting dynamic!
Have fun creating, let us know if you have questions.

Im here!
I've made a post about what's due and the timeline for the next week week in the master thread. You can find it HERE.
Very Suave!
I'm posting an introduction tonight to help give you some context. Feel free to do some pre-game RP with your teammates to help you slip into character before we start!
We are eliminating the 24 hour extension and making all rounds 3 days in length by default. The same rules apply for posting actions for your team, but we will no longer be extending the rounds as it appears teams are not completing early. In the event that all teams do complete early, we will end the round early at that time. Only the extension is being removed, the round length will remain 72 hours.
Due to the fact that 3 out of 4 of our GMs will be traveling on vacation this week, we have decided to extend the current round (round 18) until Sunday at 8pm. That gives everyone some extra time to post, but PLEASE do not wait. Round 19 will start promptly at 9pm (EDT) on Sunday.
Have a good week (and we'll see you at Origins if you are going)!
The up and down of the forums the last few weeks helped put the final nail on the game. It was a novel concept, but couldn't really find a groove in PbP to pull it off. Thanks for participating in the idea!
Best of luck in all of your future games!
