Well, as we are having more people posting with each other, I thought we should be more careful with at least two things.
First: at least Farael seems to make Osmod's outspoken lines in
italics - and I have a feeling, that at least most of the others use italics only when there is inward thinking going on - using the "parentheses" while speaking openly to others. It just the same for me, which are the stylistic conventions we adopt, but it would be clearer, if we all sticked to the same principles.
Secondly: might be due to aforementioned uncertainty also - might be because of some other reasons - but I hope we should be careful enough in writing our posts as not to make our players into "mind-readers". So if a character just thinks about something by her/himself in a post, that should not be known by any other character...
... and maybe to avoid these unhappy situations, that just happened between me and Eowyn, could we kind of note here on this planning-thread beforehand, that we are up to something - at least if we have been away for a time? I just thought yesterday, that the things were clearly developing at a pace, and E & S were somewhat being left behind also in the narration (as we both had been away), and because there were no mentioning by Eowyn to make things go forward, I reserved a save (so that the post would be at a reasonable place along the storyline). I will really appreciate Eowyn's post and have no specific urge to make that one myself. So I hope he comes back with it. I have been very busy (RL) - and tried to hang in a WW-game simultaneously... Very bad scheduling from me.
But in a way, this story / game has just begun?
(And I guess, most of us have just been practising this thing up to now? At least I have never played this kind of game before... but hopefully have learned something up to now.)
