Please be wary about your grammar when you post in the Storybook. The Co-Runners and I will be trying to make sure everything is kept at a high quality, especially since this could be turned into a group written novel at a later stage.

PM BenFranks or any of the Co-Runners if you have questions, are confused, or any other queries.

Woop! A DT thread!

I'd be willing to help with this, if you want, by the way.

I'd be willing to help, too. Unless you think someone else would be better.

Also, because the storybook is so large, maybe we should think out some plot lines now? Otherwise everything gets much to confusing and people begin to drop out / post less frequently because they literally can't keep up.

Okay, I'd like you to help if you can keep up to speed. Also, it'll be handy if you could PM members who aren't following other's posts, perhaps improve grammar. Also we need to have as many people as possible! ;] I know we have a lot already, but let's get this proper Epic!

Let's go for it. How about we organise people into teams?

Teams sound good, Ben. I have to admit, the SB is a tad bit confusing so far.
I'm sure creating teams would help.

Teams would be good. Right now, I'm just updating my character spreadsheet, so when that's done we can see how many people we have and sort them out?

That'll be brilliant Amy, then I'll post them on the 1st post of the SB and DT, ;]

I need to PM a few members about grammar as well, also, we need to make sure people are reading other's posts first, some are just mindlessly posting to their own accord. :/

Do you need any more help, Ben? If so I'd love to help.

I can PM some people about their grammar and reading other people's posts if you want, Ben.

Even though I'm probably one of them...

No, you're fine Skins and PMing others would be very helpful! And that'll be a gooden Elinor, thanks. ;]

I would help, 'cause people tell me I'm kinda good at storybooking, but you seem to have enough already. xD

One thing that would help us stay organized would be a little note before everyone's post that specifies whether their character is new or has already been living at the bookstore for a while. I'm getting completely confused figuring out who my character is supposed to know and who he isn't.

Also, I has plot! Our enemies should host some kind of gala, which would enable our characters to get in and plant bugs, gain information, ASSASSINATE! You get it.

And is this set in the winter? If it isn't, WE MUST MAKE IT SO. Trust me.

Awesome. What do you guys need me to do? I'd PM the members, but isn't that being taken care of? Could someone send me the spreadsheet, and I'll see if I can work something out with the teams? Then I can run it by here and we can make any necessary changes.

I've already sent the spreadsheet to Ben and am working out teams as we speak.

Also, Ben, could you possibly put links on the DT to the main storybook, and vice-versa? It's a little thing, but helps a lot. ;D

Sure, and I've done the name's of the Teams. How shall we sort them though? Team Alpha are going to be the bookshop cover, who'll be running HQ and interacting with the REAF public, so it should disclude the assasins, etc.
