So, there may be some changes coming. I know several of us are disappointed with the starting posts, so there may be a shift to a smaller group of writers. I'll keep everyone updated.

I will share this post I just did in another thread:
Everyone is welcome, but I do want to advise you all that I only enjoying playing with those who write well, can creatively distinguish between dialogue and narrative, and make proper use of grammar and punctuation. By putting thought and effort into your writing, you make it more entertaining for your co-writers. This isn't a babble chatroom rp -- it is an epic tale that deserves to be respected. Of your posts, ask yourselves, "would I enjoy seeing these paragraphs in a published novel?" If your answer is anything but "yes!" then you might consider a few edits.
Creative and literary integrity should dominate your list of writing priorities, so that you may craft a fine-tuned work of literature that your co-writers can undoubtedly sink their minds into with relative ease. Take not the easy route with over-used words and phrases, but rather branch out your narrative to truly unfold the splendors of the written word.
What did they tell you about crossing the streams! Canon ranks or GTFOAlso, just so everyone is aware, because the military rank system in the Imperial Navy drives me nuts, let's just use ranks similar to Starfleet in Star Trek.
Ensign, Lieutenant Junior Grade, Lieutenant, Lieutenant Commander, Commander, Captain, Commodore, Rear Admiral, Vice Admiral, Fleet Admiral, Grand Admiral.
Better than the Americans.
Why not call a week a Five-day then if it has five days?Also, I did change up the calendar some from canon. I have the Ruusan Reformation of the Republic set 1,104 years ago, as shown in my date stamp in the intro post. I am using the five day week as displayed in some sources: (Primeday, Centaxday, Taungsday, Zhellday, and Benduday.)
For the months, I decided to use the number of the month followed by "tember." So, in the intro post, it stated the date as Threetember 16th, 1104 ABR, meaning the 16th day of the 3rd month of the 1,104th year After the Battle of Ruusan. In my version, there are ten months total: (Onetember, Twotember, Threetember, Fourtember, Fivetember, Sixtember, Seventember, Eighttember, Ninetember, Tentember). Other worlds may have their own local names for days and months, but these are the ones used in official Imperial matters, based on the Coruscant Calendar. Each month has seven weeks, each week has five days. So that's thirty-five days in a month and three hundred and fifty normal days in a year. On Tentember 35th, there is a celebration known as Eve of the Nova, sometimes referred to as Nova's Eve. This represents the end of the year and the rebirth of sorts as a new year starts. There is a period of ten days known as the Long Holiday, where there is often extravagant parties and balls and feasts and gift-giving. After the ten days pass, the calendar restarts with Onetember 1st, also known as the Day of Rest. This is where people recover from their ten days of partying and then resume normal life on Onetember 2nd. So, with 350 normal days and then the ten days of the Long Holiday, a full year is 360 days, which is roughly the amount of time it takes Coruscant to complete an orbit around it's sun.
