Thoughts on Post restrictions here:
KrataLightBlade: s's become z's in his posts.
PrecisionK: Vary the font size(?)
Locus: Clearly he has to post as a know-it-all or somesuch.
Oatway: Haiku.

from another phalla for ideas:
1. cheez - pirate
2. PRËTËNTIÖüS - he uses haiku, he is the official one, he will be dead soon
3. Rend - rhymes with...rend. He doesn't actually have a quirk; I asked him.
4. Zot - talks in questions only? trait mimic?
5. precisionk - a storyteller
6. Xevo - asshole genius. Fake trait.
7. Crono729 - cool posts on odd days, warm posts on even days. Fake trait.
8. Qorzm - thinks he's precisionk
9. Hylianbunny - makes up incapacitolongated words. Fake trait.
10. giltanis - must put z's in sentenzce
11. PsychoLarry1 - engrish speakel. Fake trait.
12. MacSpectre - sports mumbo-jumbo
13. cj iwakura - TV Announcer guy will be right back after these messages
14. Osvik - he speaks in haiku, hopefully he will last long, it is a neat quirk. Fake trait.
15. NATIK - grammarless whore
16. Near/Infidel/Shinigami - vaguely proverbial spew
17. Raakam - old fogey
18. Obbi - narrates
19. durax - nerdy grammar nazi
20. Whod - overy proper gentleman-speak

This is Varcayn, and DA check your PA PMs if you haven't already, I was an idiot earlier.
That said, I was thinking of only posting in the 3rd person to pretend I have a restriction. Believable? Too annoying for everyone else so that I get voted off?

Aroduc - must use smilies (?)
Shamus - must use bold / italics / underline

and Locus apparently has to start every sentence with I. Third person isn't a bad idea..
I'm curious if the seer is able to see what someone's posting condition is. It seems best we try and hit the guardian. Or guess who that is.

Sidenote: we need to start being active with this or they will pick up that we aren't in the game.

It doesn't really matter if Locus can seer posting conditions, if he seers us, its not the condition that will damn us.
Shamus seems to have some good ideas, he gets my kill vote for now.
I'll get on posting, going with the third person idea.

Locus is a he? good point I was thinking this might be more complicated than it was, and maybe you only saw people and what their speaking condition is.

I'm going to say Oatway he seems to be hinting that he wants to be seered. "There is so much more I can do beyond a haiku" or something of that sort.
Or Shamus could be attempting to make it clear he is nothing. "leaf in the wind"

I have no idea about locus' gender and just defaulted to male, feel free to correct me.

no idea. Third Person is a good one though. I think.
I'm debating, either Narrator voice (might be in conflict with yours), Shakespearean (Art thou- might be too complex), highlighting names whenever they are mentioned (might be too easy), l3@t sp3@k or h@ving to r3pl@ce Es with 3s and as with @s .

At present I'm leaning towards always having to speak in questions for myself. I have discarded always having to speak as if I were Jack Gable from Delirious (A writer who gets trapped in his own stories) as too complex. The only other idea I have is trying to come up with something related to my chosen role, which would basically be sucking up to people.
Having a role ready that justifies your post restriction would be a good idea but don't volunteer such information. Who knows if anybody elses is related or not?

l337
"I h@73 wh@7 I'v3 b3c0m3." seems to extreme.
"I h@t3 wh@t I'v3 b3com3." might be more plausible
"I h@te what I've become." doesn't seem horrid. "
"I hat3 what I'v3 becom3." doesn't work.
Since I'm "The Crimson Ghost" I could post in Maroon, but that would seem too easy of a restriction.

I just hope the roles we picked come into play somehow, preferably in narrations. I went with Hank Scorpio.
Suggestions:
1. Always forgot to using the correct verb tense
2. Type every nth word in ALL caps
3. Type using only four
words on each line.
