[BCLG100]

Basic Rules:

* In order to participate in the Demogame RPG at all you must first become a member of the Demogame.

* Inorder to partcipate in the Demogame RPG you must register your character within the Character Registration thread.

* You can only have one character, but you can kill one character off and create a new one. You can however only do this twice a term.

* You may not kill other players character unless they've agreed on it.

* You must follow all of the CivFanatic Forums rules.

* No Supernatural creatues and/or superpowers.

* No econimical things: Currency, banks, etc.

Story-Telling:

If you want to create your own story there are several guidelines you must follow:

* You must follow the Demogame Map (IE: Your story can not exist in a place we have not explored yet in the DG.)

* You must follow the tech limits from the Demogame. (Only tech's we have completed researching and the tech which we are researching at that point)

* You are alowed to create NPC's for your story.

When playing your character in a story please:

* Respect the person that is creating the story.

* Do not drag NPC's of your own making into the story.

* Try not to make it too spammy (loads of posts saying 'yes', would not be a good idea)

* Stories that follow demogame events or decisions are greatly encouraged (This is more of a general rule)

The following rules below are purely optional.

Unarmed- primarily defensive (defending while unarmed)
Shield- (primarily defensive (defending with a shield)

Horsemanship
Speed (for races on the flat)
Steeplechase (for cross country racing)
Wielding a weapon on horse (couldnt think a of a better word for it) (for fighting on a horse)

Weaponry
sword (attacking with a sword)
bow (attacking with a bow)
unarmed (attacking while unarmed)

These Guidelines are not rules (you do not HAVE to follow them), but they are here to make things easier for everyone.

Out of Character (OCC): Anything marked with the Out of Character mark (or OCC) is, like the name implies, out of character. Any notes a player might want to make, or any threads that are not story threads (IE: Rules discussion), should have OCC in the title or someone in the first post of the thread.

Tournaments: When hosting a tournament, please take all of the "sign-ups" VIA Private Message/E-mail. This is to keep from having several posts with "I want to join," in it. It helps to keep the forum clean and counts down on the spam.

Other Players Story Threads: If another player asks that no one post inside of the thread for the time being, please respect that players request. They might be working on an addition to the story, or anything else.
