Your assumption is/was correct, Idachan. The original idea was that this was (at least) their second get together at the beach house & that this would be the first time they've ever done a key party...So, the house would be at least somewhat familiar, etc. And we should all know each other.<br/><br/>As I was telling someone else in the group, I'm not going to get hung up on little details. Play it how you wish to play it, but please discuss anything to do w/your characters w/your "spouse" first. I don't want anyone feeling as though their character's personality is being dictated to them.<br/><br/>That being said...If you want to be shy, be shy, if you don't, don't. I'm sorry if I sound blunt, but running a group game is like herding cats. I'm not about to "sweat the small stuff," as it were ;) hehe...Many of us are in multiple games. Sometimes it is difficult to keep stories straight between RPs. You just have to go w/the flow at some point & hope for the best...<br/><br/>One point I wanted to mention...once the couples have entered the home, you no longer need to have your "spouse" there to play. So, if one is on, but the other isn't, and you've made your entrance, feel free to post to the IC thread. Hope that's clear...<br/><br/>*gets out her staff* ~mrow~ ~miao~ ~nyah~ Anyone know of a good<del>sheepdog</del>...er...catdog? ;D
