Helloooooooo and good morning. Poly's popular 4th Wall Day is on the morrow, that's April 1st. Yes that's April Fool's Day. No this post isn't a joke!
Players: This curse will go smoothly for our 4th Wallers if you put in an OOC note in your post or in your relevant comment specifying what you do and do not want. For example, OOC: 4th Wall is a go, player journals are welcome, but please no duplicates/alternates of my character. Or Please just under no circumstances tell Dr. Crowe that he's already dead.
4th Wallers: Be considerate. You're guests with these non-poly characters and journals. This is a fun curse, not a trolling curse (unless it's purely and consensually at the expense of your character).
What Journals Are Allowed: Player journals, characters from other games, characters you have dropped, characters you'd like to play and want to give them a quick test run. Duplicate or Alternate Universe versions of characters in play are allowed with player permission. Please check before bringing in your alts if the player hasn't specified in advance; players please be clear about your stance on alts. Players who are not members of
polychromatic can post to poly characters for the duration of this curse; the only exception beyond April 1st is any poly player who wishes to backdate.
As this is a curse, if your character is inadvertently given information you didn't think to specify as off limits for 4th Walling, the day after the curse that character may wake to find his memory of the curse somewhat hazy on the details. Communicate, communicate, communicate if you don't want others remembering something from the curse, and better still, be clear in advance.
