Revision as of 12:58, 26 June 2007
Is the reason why none of you have posted moves recently that you don't feel your character is involved in an ongoing scene at the moment, or are there other reasons?
If you feel you don't have anything to do at the moment, say so. While I can't always keep all four characters active, I do my best, and poking me will at least make sure I pay attention to your character. (Or start a scene of your own, if appropriate... strike up a conversation with an NPC you'd like to know more about or something. You can even look up some subject in the ship's database. Although I reserve the right to not write up new material that doesn't interest me, it might be a subject that did interest me).
If you're going to be unable to post for a while, try to give notice ahead of time. I know it isn't always possible, but try.
