Formatting Rules
Update:
For several reasons, we decided to change the main narrating tense to present tense. Check for the forum, post #164 (page 11).
So as of now, these rules apply:
- Narration and thoughts are to be told in present tense.
- Except for obvious exceptions such as flashbacks and the like. Let your common sense guide you on this one.
- There is no more need to distinguish Direct thoughts from regular narration. If you don't know what Direct thoughts are, don't bother.
Punctuation & Style Rules (WIP)
- Em-dashes (—) without spaces should be used for separating thoughts and marking unfinished thoughts.
- Special words are to be dealt with like so:
| Original | Literally | Actually | Volume(s) |
|---|---|---|---|
| ”願い” / ”箱” / ”所有者” / ”O” | 'wish' / 'box' / 'owner' / 'O' | wish / Box / Owner / O | All |
| 『Name』 | 'Name' | "Name" / Name / Name (depending on situation) | All |
| 【僕自身】 | [myself] | "myself" / 'myself' (depending on bracket state) | V2 |
| 【王】 | [King] | King (all game terms: monospace font)
|
V3&V4 |
- Instances for which no rules has been defined are to be dealt with appropriately by using normal quotes, italics or nothing at all. - Box names are capitalized, but have no quotes around them.
