Thank you, Adminstrators!! Having a consolidated area for the stories is a wonderful gift! That way each player can find the other player's chapters/account of events and continue from there.
Roleplay is an awesome way to emerse yourself in the game. My suggestion would be for the first chapters to tell a bit about the character.....such as species, gender, good/evil type, characteristics. I think this will make it easier for others to envision their interaction with that player.
I hope no one minds but I would like to add the already currently running story as the first chapters.

The Story System basically works pretty much like the Blog System. The main difference is in editing, no deletion and each chapter shows the name of the author and the image from their profile.
This way everyone knows who the author is of every chapter.
And we are planning to reset the story everytime the game resets.
The stories from past games will be archived so they can be read by everyone in the future. Each archived game story will be like a new book.

I think this a good idea. I've really been impressed with some of the 'chapters' out there.

Yes, Lucky, the ongoing story we all had on your blog was awesome!! I can still burst out laughing when I think of Podboy's (Tarnus) picture you posted. And Waterboy (Big) picture made his character all the more scary LOL It truely is sad that all that was lost but now.....GET BUSY again!
btw....pj, I copy/pasted the first chapter written in my blog this morning to the story site but it shows YOUR picture. You have the alabaster skin so are you a muggle too?? *big grin*

My apology for breaking the rule of more then one story post per day. This was only in an attempt to get some of the past storyline posted to date so new current event stories can be started. I think there are a few others that need added yet from other players.
PJ, I noticed the new link to the AATrade Story.....thanks!! I know you guys are swamped with RL work, new release issues/bugs and now adding this so there is no hurry for what I am about to mention but there is one fix still needed. When clicking on 'Edit', the previously posted story does not appear thus there is no way to edit if you had just written it without saving somewhere else.

a visitor counter?......is that what is needed? When stories were on the blogs you could tell if ppl were reading just by the blog visit counter or comments left behind. Now there is no way to tell.
If it gets where no one is reading the roleplay story then it is taking up wasted space but there is currently no way of knowing that.
just food for thought
