Open Roleplay Rewards

In order to foster more fun and engaging open roleplay within the community, Our Three-Star and higher GMs are enabled to provide open roleplay rewards. Each GM may assign EXP/Loot points to players who go above and beyond the standard bar-talk. These points will be delivered through an Open Roleplay ER that is specific to the event in which the points were earned. In this ER, the GM will provide an overall description of the context and content of the event that occurred. These descriptions will be spot-checked by Four-star and higher GMs as a way to make sure we are only awarding worthy roleplay.

Open Roleplay Tidbits

The following rules and restrictions apply to Open Roleplay Bonuses:
 * 1) A GM may assign an open roleplay bonus to whomever they see as providing good roleplay, and reserve the right to not assign it to anyone they feel is ‘phoning it in’.
 * 2) A GM will not announce to the room who does and does not receive a roleplay bonus. You’ll be added to an Open Roleplay ER, at which point you are free to do whatever you wish with that information.
 * 3) If you feel your roleplay is not seen by a GM, you are free to take screenshots of the chat log containing a significant portion of the roleplay (I need to know context) and send them to a four-star or higher GM via Roll20 PM.

There is no set criteria for good roleplay, and there shouldn’t be. However, a few things will be considered when deciding whether to award a bonus. Duration, mental-level of the content, and inclusiveness are just a few important things we consider. This is not an full list, nor do you necessarily have to worry about fulfilling all of these aspects. This is just to give people an idea of what is considered good roleplay, if they’re brand new to roleplaying.
