An FAQ of sorts... if you have additional unaddressed questions concerning anything, please PM the mod instead of asking it in a comment below.
How do I know which team to join?
Use your own discretion. Generally speaking, the allied countries of World War II join the blue team; the axis, red; and the neutral, white. However, there is no rule saying that America cannot be in the red team. If you would like to switch teams later on, be sure to speak to the mods and beg forgiveness from your current team members first. They'll be missing you...
What are we allowed to do as a team?
First off, the objective of each team is to earn as many points as possible (think Harry Potter. If that doesn't make sense, ask around~). Occasionally, a mod may put up an opportunity to compete. The members to first meet the requirements will earn points for their team. Other ways to gain points include figuring out the passcode on a dorm room, breaking in, and taking something or "fixing" a belonging. Be creative, but remember that teachers will be strolling around. If they catch you passing information on the other team or carrying out a plan, points will be deducted.
If you happen to be on the white team, think of yourself as a merchant or informant between the two teams. Purchase information from one and sell it at a higher price to the other. Or, go undercover and steal the information yourself. On specially marked days, white team members are more than welcome to participate in the competitions themselves as well.
Keep in mind that all your operations have to be RPed; anything that has not been written in an RP format will not be recognized as something that has been done. This means that you cannot just claim that you snuck into the teachers lounge and sifted through student profiles. You have to actually make a thread for this. The easiest way to get this done is to find an accomplice.
What is the calendar for?
Whenever you begin a new thread, be sure to either put your event on the calendar yourself (include the title of the thread and the members involved) or alert a mod so they can do this for you. This is to avoid time rifts (like going on a date with someone on July 4 in one thread and "meeting" them on August 2 in another thread). Please do not join two threads that occur simultaneously in different places.
What is the daily reports section for?
This section behaves much like a diary, but it is not required to be in character. Give a brief synopsis of what your character is doing/has done so that members who have been on hiatus and want to RP with you will know what has happened.
What if my dorm has been broken into?
Don't worry. With any one passcode, intruders are allowed to break in only once. The minute they leave, you will have a new dorm passcode. This will prevent repetitive attacks.
Do we actually have class?
Sure. Half the day will be spent as normal teenagers at school. The other half of the day will be for espionage training. It's up to you how to spend this time.
What goes in the Restricted Zone?
Anything that suits your fancy. The Restricted Zone is warehouse which has alternating uses throughout the year. Basically, teachers and administrators on campus like to store things there. If you have a crazy plot you want to role-play just for kicks, this is the place to go. It can be Narnia or Area 51 for all we care.
Why is Wang Yao so amazing?
I don't know. He just is.
But is Arthur Kirkland just as amazing?
Yes. Sometimes even more.
