Right....just a few thoughts on character ID's....

There are three ways you could do it as far as I can see.

1. Change your Gaga display name to your character name for the duration of the Murder Mystery.

This means that even when you are not "in character" and just chatting elsewhere, you will still be posting under your character name. You won't be able to keep changing your display name at will, otherwise your character will "disappear" in the murder threads (and become you....if you know what I mean? ).

2. Set up an alternate ID in your characters name and log in and out,  switching between "character" and "you" whenever you feel like it.

This has the advantage that the Murder thread will still be intact (ie display the characters names) even after it's all finished, but...... I know from past murder games I've played that it can be hard to remember to switch when you need to

3. You could change your forum name to include your character name, alongside your normal forum name.



I haven't decided which I'm going for yet...... but I'm tempted to go for the second option.

There are rules?

DON'T stress yourself over this we will all make it happen one way or the other
Thanks Prom

Don't worry....I've been through this three times before. Two as characters with no responsibility for the running of it (and had a whale of a time!!!)....and once as the "owner" of the forum it was happening on.

That last time nearly gave me grey hairs!!  I didn't write and plan it, but I encouraged it to go ahead, so felt mega responsible for everyone having fun, and in the process nearly failed to have any myself.

This time I plan to have a ball. I shall keep a close eye on poor Hooch to make sure she does the same.

Oooooooooooooh next Saturday and Sunday i'm not around - does that count me out? sorry I thought it was a couple of days only! Never done an online Murder mystery before! I may need PM'ing with details.
 oh that's a shame ......Ducky did say in the original post that we need people who could be on the forum every day (even for a short time) for the 12 day duration of the game - I hope you can work out a solution.

Yaaay! That's that sorted! Thanks Muf.



While you're here.....any preference to which character you want to play?


I'm off to bed in a min.....if anyone else passing through in the morning has any preferences can you let me know as soon as poss? I'm going to hand them all out as soon as I can in the morning (bearing in mind I'm still up at 3:00am.....that's gonna be late morning ) ...so that Hoochie can send the first PM's to everyone, and we can get ourselves organised and ready for Sunday night
