Remember that when your character changes in any way a new sheet MUST be sent to LyGabriele for records.  If you do not do this and a DM questions something and its not on the sheet she has, it doesn't count.

Remember, if you want XP you MUST send a letter and logs to JasonWngrd every week or as they happen.  XP will be given out on the weekends.  If you do not send this info you do not get XP.  Also, XP will only be given for logs played in on LoC Room, with approved LoC Character or sims run by LoC DMS.  No other RPing in other games or rooms will be counted.  ONLY the DM staff can run a sim.

Please remember DO NOT IM the Running DM during a Sim.  Please defer your questions to one of the other DMs in the room and they will either handle the questions or have the running DM contact you.  From now on, if you IM the running DM without going through the IM DM you will lose 1/2 your XP for the encounter for each IM.

Please read over the web page.  You need to start knowing the world that you are playing in.  You MUST know the cities at least.  From now on we will be docking XP for questions that could be answered or known if you would have read the web page.  IE: where is Danthar in comparisson to Sturmguard.  Who is the god of Death.  Etc.  We do not axpect you to know everything.  But these simple common things should be known by the players who have been playing with us for some time.  If you would like, please contact me and I will send you the BMP that is on the web page that is the map of the world.  I will also send a copy of the corrisponding numbers that tell you the cities.  Then you should be able to go into the web page and look on the listings for info on the towns.  That page lists what temples are in what known cities.  This rule will not be subjected on the people that have just started playing but within a few weeks you should be able to know this info.  If all else fails pull up the web page and have it in the background while playing to have easy access to info that you need.  Most of the most stressfull questions the DMs deal with would have easily been answered by pulling up the web page.  Before you ask a DM check the web page for the answer.

As of right now we are asking that you limit the number of characters in the game to 2.  We have so many players and so many screen names that we need to start limiting.  For those of you who have more than 2 already, don't worry we are not going to make you get rid of some, just know that if a character dies you will not be able to make a new one to replace it until you are below the 2 character cut-off.

Do to the increase in the amount of people dieing in sims we have decided to change to how it is in the computer and table-top versions of the game.  Meaning: If you die, and you or another of your group can not get you to a cleric and pay for your return, you don't come back.  It will be up to the individual cleric character to determine how much it will cost for them to ressurrect the dead character as well as if only coin, or some form of trade and services, will be what is accepted.  Remember: If you are in over your head, it may be better to run then to take the chance of dieing.  Just be true to your character (IE: A paladin of Protection can't run until he has ensured everyone else is safe).

When making a room for our game.  You Must include ADnD at the beginning and LoC at the end.. this ensures people know we are an AD&D group and separates our rooms from those of the ADnD Association.  When making a Private room these are not needed because we know we play AD&D and are part of the LoC.

Please make sure to get all new Character sheets to me ASAP for approval.

Keep your eyes on the Web page.  It will Have new Updates and info added at least once a week.

To all of you who play in several games.  Remember to keep separate sheets.  XP and Magic items are not transferable between games.

Always have fun and enjoy the game.  That is what its here for.

Any Ideas, comments, and suggestions are welcome and could be worth extra XP.

If you can keep your buddy list updated with the names of all the players off our player list. Anytime a player is in an LoC room.. the game is going on.  Character interaction is a big part of the game. it helps us build the IC friendships or hatreds that make the game fun.  And remember that most of the staff and players have many SNs .. so we may not be on under our main name.. so you need to look for all the Sns to play with.

If you are still on the Need a sheet list.  Please get me your sheet as soon as you can.. or at least let LyGabriele know the status.

Keep an eye on your mail for updates on story lines and new to remember items.

If you see something missing from the web page or know of something that should be added.. Let LyGabriele know.  It could be worth extra XP.

The XP dm should get letters out once a week to let us know what we have earned for the week..  Personal letters will be sent to those getting extra XP.  Also  If you see an example of good role player or are in an encounter make sure the XP dm gets a copy of the log so that XP can be awarded.

Thanks to you all .. the game would not happen or be fun without the contribution each of you make with your characters.  Be it large or small.. It counts.  Each of you help make this game fun.

When in a room.. remember to wait until someone has officially entered I.e....::enters::.. before acknowledging that character.

The DM staff asks a favor of all of you.  We see new sns pop up in our rooms more and more that are not members of the LoC.  Lets all make the effort to Im these and get them a link to our web page so they can learn of our group and join us in play.

All newsletter, IM, and ((<<>>)) info is to be considered OOC Info unless otherwise agreed upon.

All Sn's have 30 days after showing interest to submit a character sheet.  If no sheet is submitted, the name will be removed from both the players list and the mailing list. And must  turn in a sheet to have their name re added to the list.

In our game.. time moves as follows:  Two OOC weeks = One IC Month.. Time may be speeded or slowed per DM Discretion for a SL.

All Characters must state where they are living and working and how they make there income..

All players, even DM's are subject to Probation and Termination of game rights  per Head DM's Decision.
