Plot Committee

The Plot Committee:

What's up XMR.


We've got a bit of a dilemma. First off, this site has been awesome right out of the chutes. Strong, dedicated players – it helps that they have no lives. Great minds geared for story-telling... and more chemistry than even we know what to do with.


We've had Shadow X. The school and characters were twisted into something perverse.


Apocalypse devastated Earth and nearly enslaved us all to his dogmatic ideal of survival of the fittest.


Onslaught nearly unmade reality by withholding a young Xavier from his home, allowing us to play our counterparts in WWX.


The CAGE was destroyed, unleashing new mutants back into the world. Sinister's rearing his ugly head again. Sanctuary has been complete, creating a veritable fortress to house the Brotherhood and its supporters. The Inhumans have visited us twice now. The Savage Land... Gene Nation... Genosha... American Gods... you get the idea.


And there's still more to come.


Here's the thing... XMR's gotten really big. We're in the heroic age, focusing on more faction-specific and character-driven plots at the moment. Plots are all over the place and we've added a few factions over the course of time. To help encourage people to keep posting as consistently as possible and to keep the quality we've come to expect from XMR, we're creating a plot committee to help us keep XMR on the tracks.



The Plot Committee’s only focus will be to move plots forwards and help get members active in posting. The Plot Committee will be comprised of both Staff and non-Staff members, but essentially, they are a group of the site’s most active and dedicated members. Because the huge Town Meetings get easily out of control and unfocused, the committee will be a body of representatives, one representative for each faction plus TWO additional people to provide extra help. Some people have already been approached and slots filled.

Factions:

X-Men - Heather (Scott)
Students – Machka (Network)
X-Factor – Joe (Box)
X-Corp – Dean (OC - TBA)
Morlocks –
HFC – TJ (Forge)
BH – Matt (Magneto)
Others – Flyboy
SHIELD - Brett (Maverick)

Additional members:

Cody
[Empty]



Duties of Representatives:
- To relay the interests of their faction to the committee during plotting meetings and to make sure the members of their faction understand upcoming plots

- To help get people in their faction active in plots, in the larger plots as well as smaller character development plots

- To help push plots along and keeping them moving

- Attend the Plot Committee meetings, if you cannot manage to attend then read the meeting transcripts. Because some plots may have secrets and ‘to be revealed’ plot twists, the transcripts will be posted in a password protected sub-forum. The password is not to be shared with nonCommittee members.

- Help create and implement plots


Requirements to be a representative -

- Have a desire to keep XMR moving forward to bigger and better things

- Post an average of FIVE times a week (legitimate excuses such as RL issues, illness, stressful time at work, and heavy school load, will accepted and taken into consideration), continuously not meeting this quota will result in removal from the committee and another representative chosen. If you know that you will not be able to consistently reach this mark, do not volunteer.

If you would like to be on the Plot Committee, please sign-up. To represent a faction you must have a character in that faction but they DO NOT have to be the in-game leader of that faction.

Currently, the open positions are for:
X-Corp
Morlocks
Others
And the second Extra slot

If more than two people volunteer to represent a faction, the members of that faction will vote in a poll.

If you don’t know your weekly posting average, ask a Staff member.

I would like to volunteer for the plotting committee for X-Corp. I've been wanting to do more for XMR and this opportunity may be it.

Understand that volunteering my name is not a guarantee. In the process of getting Lou active I realized I want to get X-Corp active as well; for it to become a reputable faction both new and current members will join and stay.

I want a chance to at least be a part of the committee even if it is not in charge of a faction.

Thank-you for consideration.

I would like to discuss with the staff whether there can be two people for X-Corp instead of one. It is very appreciated that Dean has also volunteered a future OC to be part of X-Corp. However, since this character is not part of X-Corp currently can I make a formal request that member with a current character (even if it is not me) represent the faction on a pending bases until Dean's character has been established in game.

Well, if it's up to a vote, it's up to a vote, right? Throw your name in the ring and let your faction choose. I don't think a faction as small as X-Corp justifies two members.

The problem is that X-Corps players do not have the minimum post count average at this point. That is the only reason we choose a staff member. The only X-Corper with the proper average has apparently decided against being involved.

I just wanted to say I'm glad I got accepted for the Students! I think this site is just awesome, and I love being given the chance to get even MORE involved, especially with the plots and everything. So YAY.

I put Anansi down for this and the Morlock faction. I think that it's a really good idea that people have a say in what happens involving plots on the site. So I will definitely put Anansi down for this, to assist with the development of the site.
