First, get permission. The last thing you want is for someone to throw an internet temper tantrum and say "I never said you could use sowandsow! If they give permission, they can't pull permission, just like in the MSTings. The story isn't going to have all kinds of wacked out fucked up stuff in it, I think. I mean, it's pretty much just a rip from the Octagon Rumble, right? So we won't suddenly have Thief getting Whoever drunk and sexing he/she/it up.
Second, create the teams after getting permission. Look at who you get. Say if you get black dub, t.ogre, Lance, Oniko, Brandt/Thief and Ryukage respond.
dub, Oniko, Thief and t.ogre wouldn't work on a team 'cause the first three have a touch of the hentai.
Lance and ogre wouldn't work, unless they reached some kind of Kyo/Iori agreement.
...
I like that idea. Two bitter enemies having to fight the greater evil?
dub and Brandt wouldn't work as Brandt is a super-good, while dub is practically villainous. Laws? What laws?
Oh, and there will be a dub redesign sometime soon. It will keep with the MST's canon, but it will be a redesign.
dub, Brandt/Thief and Ryukage... don't really have anything in common.
See what I mean? Just throw a little thought into it and it should turn out fine.
Third- Make it clear that what one person writes cannot be ret-conned due to prima donna bullshit.
Fourth- Get good backstories going. I'm not sure if the theatre action should be canon or not, as this could be a neat AU thing.
Fifth- NO RETCONS.
Sixth- Make it clear that you can't play favorites. I mean, if Lance shows up in the story, then someone with a vendetta against Shade could fuck him up but good.
That's stupid. That brings me to seven-
Se7venth- No killing of characters unless absolutely necessary. And when it is absolutely necessary, have the character leave Quasispace instead of dying.
Eighth- If this is your first night at Fight Club, you have to fight.
Ninth- Insure that all characters stay in character. dub would never say god followed by a curse word, or even the spelled out version of "omg." And yet, he will still tell someone to "Go fuck yourself in your stupid ass!" ...well, he owuldn't say that, but he isn't afraid to curse. OOC is a bad thing. And don't give me that creativity shit either. It's stupid. Fuck that.
Tenth- This isn't just a "Hey, let's fuck around lolllololoO!!!one!!!!" thing. It's a story. It's the written word. Treat it with the respect it deserves.
...that's all I can think of right now.
...geez, I wish there was a way to edit posts after making them -_- I get the feeling I fucked up somewhere up there.
