Note: %r is a line break and %t is a tab. A lot of people like to start an emit with %r%t

<b>Note:</b>
 +
 
 +
For group noms, it would be helpful to staff if you include the db # of involved players. (for players with space in their names, replace names with alias) (at the very least you will need to include their names)
 +
 
 +
To do this:
 +
 
 +
think [iter(<space separated list of players in the scene>,num(*##))]
 +
 
 +
Then include the list that comes from that on it's own line.
 +
 
 +
Example:
 +
 
 +
For a scene with the following people:
 +
 +
WhoopingCrane HoneyBadger SandSpider DropBear
 +
 
 +
think [iter(WhoopingCrane HoneyBadger SandSpider DropBear,num(*##))]
 +
 
 +
then add the resulting line into the group nom, it should look like:
 +
 
 +
#5885 #8873 #15141 #10258
 +
 
 +
Alternate Method, this only gets the DB#s of those currently connected in the room:
 +
 
 +
think [lcon(here,CONNECT)]
  
 
Notes:
 
Notes:
 
If someone has a space in their name, please use their alias instead.

XP

[1]

This is how I nom:

+xp/nom <name>/<types>=Participants: <space separated list of db#s of those in the scene>%rPoses: <Pastebin log or example poses>%rSummary: <2-3 sentence description of scene, including why special rewards were given>

Example nom:

+xp/nom Alice/ACTING CONCEPT HEROISM=Participants: #5885 #8873 #15141 #10258%rPoses: https://pastebin.com%rSummary: A discussion happens between the two about how they're always used in examples. Just then a gasmain explodes, and the two scramble to protect NPC diners.

Note:

For group noms, it would be helpful to staff if you include the db # of involved players. (for players with space in their names, replace names with alias) (at the very least you will need to include their names)

To do this:

think [iter(<space separated list of players in the scene>,num(*##))]

Then include the list that comes from that on it's own line.

Example:

For a scene with the following people:

WhoopingCrane HoneyBadger SandSpider DropBear

think [iter(WhoopingCrane HoneyBadger SandSpider DropBear,num(*##))]

then add the resulting line into the group nom, it should look like:

#5885 #8873 #15141 #10258

Alternate Method, this only gets the DB#s of those currently connected in the room:

think [lcon(here,CONNECT)]

Notes:

Only one nom needs to be submitted per scene (makes it easier for staff.)

If someone in the scene should get different XP totals, you can add that info to the initial command.

For PRPs you probably want to include a Storyteller: line

Staff recommends ACTING and CONCEPT as a pair.

Extra help for XP:

Highlight

First set a function on yourself:

&b me=[setq(0,moniker(*%0))][switch(name(*%0),r(0),ansi(h,%0),r(0))]

Now in scenes, just wrap every person's name like this:

[u(b,name)]

Note: This is an updated version, update your b function if from before 7/23

Note: No longer needs a '*' before the name for people outside the room.

Note: if you typo the name, it will still highlight, rather than error

Posebreak

Turn on posebreak:

Reality

Realities:

Be able to see a reality:

+rsee <reality>

Be able to have a desc in a reality:

Set your desc for a reality (I recommend adding ANSI or a break to avoid confusion):

&<reality>desc me=<reality desc>
