I would expect a main topic, with some sub-threads.  Prisoners wouldinteract with eachother (as they would be kept in the same cell). Guards might "arrive" to interact with them, or researchers might haveone or more pulled out.  Activity that takes place "in private" wouldbe in another subthread that have a beginning & an end.  I couldalso see some interaction between the warden and other staff (perhaps,some backstabbing as well).<br/><br/>The trick will be maintaining thesubplots, and doing our best to 1) keep track of where people are (thatwill be tracked in the OOC thread) and 2: keep track of timing. Prisoners will need to get used to having their conversations"interrupted", as they would be in real life - they may startsomething, and have it blocked or negated when a guard arrives.<br/><br/>Whichbrings up a good topic that I'll address in the OOC group also - peopleneed to accept that they'll be coming in and out of the RP, just asthey would in a real situation.  Not everyone's a part of everything.<br/><br/>If we can get past that, then I think we'll be good :)<br/><br/>Perhaps, a "location based thread" where you move your character from place to place?
