Brainstorming Time!

[brat_inslayage]

Um, I might have spaced on this last month, but... holidays, so yay? Anyway! I know SOMEONE has been waiting for this, and I am in no way looking pointedly at YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE. Here be your more-or-less monthly brainstorming post, wherein you do that thing. With the suggesting new ideas and possibly developing on previously proposed ones.

Question! Would participating in homeroom be opt-in? I happen to love the idea, especially if I can pop mine in to react to things or not, as the case may be, but I would kind of hope that we could handwave furiously that ours were there or not.

I don't mind it being mandatory IC, but if I had to tag in to each post with mine OOC each time, it'd feel like a chore.

If we're handwaving, people could even note OOC something about "Bob isn't here" for the necessary plot reactions.

... I need to remember to switch to Rinoa's account for OOC commenting. Too many of George's icons look bitchy. (Which is great IC but not so hot OOC ...)

See? Way less bitchy. Vast improvement.

I think it shouldn't be mandatory, because we have classes for that? Though if someone wanted to get in trouble for skipping homeroom, that's one thing, but I don't think it should get to the point where it feels like a chore.

Maybe something like, "All students are assumed to be present unless it is noted otherwise?" So if Karla's off on a plot or George makes a post about how she was feeling lazy and blew off homeroom or slept till noon or something, or someone just posted to the OOC to say "Bob's not in today," then people can make mention of it or a teacher could decide to enforce the rules or something, but other than that, it's assumed that everyone is handwavily there?

RIGHT. I am in no way, shape or form trying to give us something we HAVE to ping into, because omg I barely keep up with classes as it is! But it's totes expected that your character is there unless specified otherwise, because it's an ICly mandatory thing. Hopefully that makes some sense.
