#having to manually piece together the timeline is such a chore

[summitclan-chronicles]

Will the RP be run in real time (1 day in game = 1 day IRL) or liquid time (1 day in game = multiple/fewer days IRL)? If it is liquid time what will time progression look like?

Personally I struggle to keep track of my character with a lot of liquid time servers because it’s hard to follow the timeline of events. I have trouble keeping track of what happens when, how much time has passed, how how rapidly my character should be developing if there isn’t a 1:1 match with the real calendar. I understand liquid time is a lot easier for the OOC organization aspect though.

I’m really interested in this server but I want to make sure it’s something I would be able to keep up with before applying.

The good news is 90% of the roleplay moves in real time, specifically EST where the roleplay takes place.

However, individual days are seperate from realtime and will run longer than the irl day to give people more time! Essentially, each irp day is 48 hours: 24 day, 24 night. To keep things going without having to recalculate every week, Saturday and Sunday are both nights, and those are used to host festivals and ceremonies!

As for time, we are completely solid time: your character is in one place at any time and must actively exit one place to be in another place. Cats are free to move between, fracture or combine threads where appropriate, but they CANNOT be in two places at once.

#ask #i personally find liquid time to be a huge headache #having to manually piece together the timeline is such a chore #when the discord itself acts as a perfectly solid record #as long as everyone flows in one direction #this comes back to the No Retcons rule. you can only go forward at the same rate as everyone else you cant go back at any point #altho things are allowed to have happened behind the scenes ofc!
