Time

(Borrowed from here.)

Time on the MUSH is handled in an abstract way when it comes to scenes, sessions, chapters, et cetera. If a more concrete time is required, use the following guidelines:

  • A scene is any single session of roleplay that is confined to a single location. A shift of location, a pause while characters catch their breath and recover, or a change in the majority of the cast of the scene can (but not necessarily do) mean a change in scene. If time is absolutely required, a scene is around two hours.
  • A Game Session, if an exact time is required, is one day.
  • A Chapter, if an exact time is required, is one week.
  • A Story, if an exact time is required, is one month.
