New rules - new universe - new play style.

So, months (RL months) have passed and we didn't start. Why, you will ask, or you will not - I will tell anyway. Well, the usual time problem. I wanted to start with a proper scene with Wren, and we never met.

This style of waiting does not work, I knew it too well from previous experiences (see the Sandon blog - I hope Grace will put that off one of these days).

So from next week we start with another approach. Bear with me. The new rules are:

- one week IRL is one day of play; the story lasts 8 days at most.

- everyone can play every part. So, you can be Ronald, Wren, Marya, or Michael - or just someone else.

Imagine the story as a set of possible worlds (link, but NSFNG - not safe for non-geeks) that will unfold in narration - or as a test that a writer is doing with its characters. You can choose if you follow up from the previous scene, or if you just play it anew, or make an alternative play.

The only common part will be the "day theme" announced at the start of the week. Please try to play - and send the plays to Federico.
