Rules

13+ Rating
First and foremost, all players must be at least 13 years or older in order to join the Victory . Secondly, all material must be appropriate for the age group. No explicit violence or sexual content is allowed. Use the tried and true method of fading to black and leaving some things to the imagination. You may imply that certain actions have happened, but do not give explicit details. For example, Johnny can lose a leg but you can not go into the gory details of the dismemberment.



1. The Victory's main goal is to tell interesting stories, explore and develop your character and to have fun.

2. The Victory does not tolerate any kind of discrimination, bullying, or verbal insults.

3. Writers on the Victory are expected to post once every month as long as you are actively answering tags within a few days.

4. If you are not able to participate with the RPG, for whatever reason, you need to apply for a leave of absence. An absence of less than 2 weeks is a LOA, and an absence of more than 2 weeks is an ELOA (Extended Leave of Absence). If you are working on a JP, you are also required to let your fellow writers know, and you need to agree what to do with the JP during your absence.


5. The Victory does not allow a writer to write someone else's character, or NPC, without the permission of the writer. If you make an agreement with another writer to write each other's characters, please make good and clear rules about it, so the chance for any problem is limited.

6. If you disagree with another writer you first need to solve the issue yourself. If you feel someone has made a negative comment, contact the person and explain the problem to the person. Most of the time the person isn't aware of it. If the situation is more severe you can contact both myself and the Executive Officer, and we'll assist in finding a solution.

Posting Rules:
Novel style writing.
1. We use Novel style for our posts. That entails that the story should read like a book. Dialogue should be put in "quotation" marks, punctuation should be used correctly. And use proper spelling and grammar.

2. Use a spell check program before you post a story. Simple errors can be made easily.

3. You are allowed to give your character an accent. That however should be done in such a way that it does not affect spelling and grammar.

Post introduction.

1. Pay close attention that you give the correct data in the field before your post. This will be the intro to your post.

2. Select the correct mission, if there are more than two active. In the mission tips will be an explanation for which one you are expected to use.

3. Give your post a title.

4. Location: Start with the Deck - followed by the area, office or room in which the story takes place.

5. Time: Start with MD ?? and then a time 00 00 hrs. In the mission tips there is info on the current Mission Day and a time schedule.

6. If you want to give your post a description instead of a time then please leave it out of the Time field in the intro, only give the day there. And write at the start of your post the description in cursor. With a time description is meant "a quiet evening in ten forward" or "right after the away mission" This to emphasize a mood in your post.

Tagging.

Nova offers a great possibility for writing joint posts. Therefore it is not necessary to leave a tag in any finished posts. If you have a solo post that you would like another character to respond to, send the player a PM.

Length of posts.

Posts are expected to be at least 3 paragraphs, containing a minimum of 10 sentences. If you have a very long post, post it in two parts. And give the title the addition of Part 1, or Part 2.
