Starbase Capricorn
Policies and Guide
Updated February 06, 2018
Starbase Capricorn is the sister game to Star Trek: Aquarius, Diversity Fleet's longest running RPG. Unlike the original chat simulation, however, Second Shift is managed as a message-board game. While different in mechanics, however, the flexibility of Starbase Capricorn allows for participation by players who cannot attend regularly-scheduled chat games.
Gameplay
"Action" posts are provided by the GM in order to move the plot along. Pay special attention to these posts, as they provide critical background to gameplay.
As far as mechanics are concerned, posts should be in the third-person unless posted in the style of a narrative duty log. Tag individuals with whom you are interacting, and you may wish to label the locations of your posts.
All players are welcome to participate in as well as to involve their current characters when the paths of the Aquarius and the Capricorn crew intersect.
Attendance
--A player absent for 3 consecutive weeks without notification to the Commanding or Executive Officer will receive a 1-week warning.
--If notification is not made, that player shall be placed on leave of absence after the 4th week and that member’s data will be forwarded to the host string to notify future hosts.
--After an additional two week period, if the host team has not been contacted by the player, a second e-mail will be sent by the GM Team , if no reply is received within five days, the player will be removed from the roster and any future assignments to the simulation will require approval from the GM Team.
--Vacations, emergency leaves are always available. Please notify the GM Team as soon as possible as a courtesy to the crew and for the continuation of a smooth story line.
