[attr="class","info"]An important part of any Fire Emblem site, this is the introduction post to how to run a successful paralogue quest. Are you interested? Well, you should be. It's a nice way for some development with strangers, and even better, it has a lot of chances for input for members! Yay!
[attr="class","infobig"]STARTING A PARALOGUE
Anyone can start a paralogue in the Requested subboard. Basically, what you do is start a thread including the quest parameters (examples would be defeating bandits, finding a lost item, defeating an amount of Risen, and so on), the location and the recommended party size. A staff member will be along to give a brief glance of the quest to make sure it's appropriate and then create a thread in the main paralogue board containing the details of the paralogue, including the parameters, the location, the party size, and the possible rewards.[attr="class","infobig"]JOINING A PARALOGUE
Once a paralogue has been moved into the main board, people are free to post in order to sign up for it as they please until they reach the maximum signup. At that point, a staff member will move them into the Accepted board and create a single post to set the scene in the area for the paralogue. Usually this post will contain some important information required for the objective, but it will also be rather short.[attr="class","infobig"]THREADING A PARALOGUE
Once the first post has been made, the participants of the paralogue will post back and forth in order while they complete the quest. Upon occasion, usually for important quests, a staff member might post with a little more information, but as a policy, the staff will stay out of most paralogues in an administrative manner.[attr="class","infobig"]COMPLETING A PARALOGUE
When the participants have successfully cleared the task (or suitably failed in it), one of the staff members should be tagged so that they can close the paralogue. From there, rewards will be distributed according to how well the task was cleared - so as a note, if you smash through it attempting to just get money, you may not get as much of a reward, while on the other hand, if you do it in a manner that is above and beyond expectations, you could receive more. The paralogue will then be moved to the completed board and the process begins all over again.[newclass=.infobig]font-family: garamond; font-size: 20px; letter-spacing: 8px; text-transform: lowercase;[/newclass][newclass=.infosmall]margin-top: -5px; font-family: arial; letter-spacing: -1px; font-size: 12px; text-transform: uppercase;[/newclass][newclass=.info]margin-top: -5px; color: #ddd; width: 400px; background-color: #343434; border: #282828 10px solid; padding: 10px; text-align: justify;[/newclass]
