Questions about the site, that aren't answered in "Basic Info" or "O.A.Q."? Post them here, and someone will answer as soon as possible. If you know the answer to someone's question, feel free to answer - I'm not the only one who knows how things work around here, after all...

That's your decision...
For future reference, messages of this kind are probably best adressed in a private message to Lunar.

Hey Lunar, I have a few questions about the House itself.
1) What exactly is the House's layout? Where are the stairs, bathrooms, closets, and so forth?
2) How long ago was the House abandoned? Was it renovated in the past few decades? (I'm assuming so, since a house in the Victorian era probably wouldn't have plumbing, electricity, or other modern comforts.)

Woah, Kitty has a question about the site. Wow.
Anyway, Lunar, which do you prefer, language tags or bad online translators.
I need to know for a new post.

Moody: (Gah. I'm sorry. I havn't replied yet, have I?)
1) I've never really mapped it out. Um... Bathroom on each floor, second and third floors have a hallway with rooms on each side, kitchen and stairs are on opposite sides of the living room.
2) Yes, it's been rennovated in the last half-century or so. It was abandoned about ten or fifteen years ago; escapees started moving in about seven years ago.
Kitty:
I'm not really sure what you mean by that... *blush* I feel stupid now. Mind explaining a little more?

EDIT:Okay, weeeeelll, 'Lupe is actually going to speak some -pausefordramticeffect- Spanish in my next board. I don't speak any Spanish at /all/. (Because French is hot.)
So, I have two options.
I can use Babel Fish (or some similar board), but everyone knows such translators ruin and butcher the language, so I'm reluctant to use them. Still, they will look more IC for the roleplay. If I used a translator I would have to write all the dialog out in the bottom of the post.
I can also use language tags. If I did that I would mark where she was speaking with << >> as is customary. I would use normal English and mark that it's in Spanish.
<<It would look like this.>>
-Shrug-
I just wanted to cheeecck.

Ah. Honestly? I don't have any particular preference. Do whichever you're more comfortable with.

I have a few questions and comments for whenever Lunar gets back.
1. What's the official policy on advertising this site? Should we ask permission, should we refrain from advertising in certain places/situations, etc? This may sound like a dumb question, but there are some places where we could advertise that would attract unsavory individuals to our beautiful site. So I was wondering just how much you trust us. And this site could use a little advertising (cue tumbleweed), so I thought I'd ask.
2. I mentioned this idea in a PM to you a long time ago, and just recently realized that you had never answered. Anyway, it was to have a separate board for holidays/social occasions. Perhaps House meetings could go on this board, too, if we wind up having them on a regular basis. And it would be a good place to put the Social Nights when we have them. Maybe Social Nights, House meetings, and holidays could be sub-boards? My logic is just that people might think more about holidays and such if they had their own board.
3. This idea is also from the PM, and it's maybe a little outdated because we don't really have a problem with too few rooms at the moment. But since a lot of characters seem to want rooms to themselves, the idea was to add some smaller rooms; such as two-person or even one-person rooms. Most hotels/bed-and-breakfast-type-places have differently sized rooms for their guests, after all. Assuming that's what the House was before it was abandoned. I particularly like this idea because at least three out of my six characters want rooms to themselves.
EDIT: One last question:
4. Does the House have a phone?

I have a question also. Gasp, the newbie has a question!
Anyways, is there a particular season/time of year here? As in, do you post when it is summer, winter... You get the idea. Just curious.

I'm not sure what you're asking, so I'll answer both questions I can think of that would have that wording.
We post all year round, when we aren't suffering from a lull like the one right now. It tends to slow down according to times that are typicall busy for our age group (summer break, finals, etc.), but posts are always allowed to come up and such.
Second, as far as the role-play goes, the season/time/date/whatever of a thread is the same as the real time season/time/date/whatever that it was posted in, and then it progresses in role-play time from there.
I think I answered that?

The second answer was the one I was looking for. Sorry I didn't phrase the question too well, but thanks for the help!

Tobey: (Eeek, sorry for taking so long to respond!)
1) Use your discretion - I honestly don't know what kinds of sites you're thinking of advertising on, nor can I anticipate where anyone else might want to. Feel free to advertise on other roleplays or roleplay-oriented communities, though. I trust you guys' judgment.
2) Yeah you did PM me about that, and I can't figure out why I never did it! I'll go set that up right now.
3) Once we get the whole floorplan figured out, it should neatly solve that problem.
4) Yeah, they do.
