[OOC Thread] The Lesser of Two Heresies.
HexaDoken:
Well, loading pistol is not really OOC stuff. That depends on how you write it.
ACTION -> RELOAD PISTOL - is rather OOC stuff. But something like HexaDoken reloads his pistol - could perfeclty fit in IC thread.

This is the point. Why write C:\RELOAD\PISTOL? We're narrating, not navigating the DOS terminal?
Klear:
Well, in the case of my readying the autopistol, I did it like this since I forgot to mention it in my post and somebody already posted a reply, so I didn't want to edit it.
Other than that the spoilered texts are mostly OOC talk. When the action starts, we'll probably be using both (IC to narrate, spoilered OOC to see the exact stats/rolls/whatever.

ARE YOU SURE? Y/N

...yeah that's not really fun. Let's avoid that.
Sylith:
Klear - I still not quite see why couldn't this be done in IC manner, but I think I got your point. ;)
I'm not reacting just because of it anyway, I'm even more curious about Esther's post than yours. Writing some actions in IC and some in OOC might also cause a problem when someone else will want to interrupt. I'm just used to...

"That's a good idea", she said to Melissa. Then she took a step to Nathan and leaned to his ear. She whispered something and walked through the door.

this kind of spoiler use. Or rolls. Everything else seems available without spoilers.
