welcome aboard, John Q

I would like to volunteer for the following billets, in order of preference :

1. Communications Officer
2. Planetary Scientist
3. Historian
4. Chaplain ( Spiritual Advisor )
5. Cook

• The Captain is the authority on the ship and his orders to his entire crew are in BB Code for orange (ie {color=orange]Now hear this[/color])
  
  
• Crew members are expected to create personalities which reflect their status on board- ie Pilot, Security Officer, etc.
  
  
• conversations between crew members are to be done using the 'Reply-To' button on the top right hand corner of each post or using the 'Quote' button (please trim to portion of the quote you are replying to. If you have questions on how to do that, please U2U me)
  
  Some writers do not have enough posts to enable U2U's. If a private message is to be communicated and you can't do so, I will pass the U2U on to the intended recipient.
  
  
• Ship-to-Ship communications between the Penelope and the Yddryl will not occur until they meet at some point after departure from their respective outposts.
  
  
• posting pictures in the thread: pictures must be uploaded to the ATS Media site.

  -Log in using your normal username and password
  
  -Once logged in, find 'My account' at the top right hand corner
  
  -Find 'My pictures' on the drop down list and click on that
  
  -load picture you want by browsing your file
  
  -click on the downloaded picture and copy paste proper link
  
  
• Never post any out-of-role comments or questions in the story thread but only here
  
  
• We only write from our characters perspective and never do any storytelling "for" someone else...in other words: If lets say, some impact hits the ship and the captain experiences lots of pain, we cannot "re-write" that section but can only describe the same event from our personal perspective.

  If there are any other ideas, please either U2U or post in thread.
  
  The role playing begins at 9PM EST tonight
