While we, the writers, can read any sim in the fleet (and know what's going on all over the ship) your characters do not. Part of realistically playing a character is making sure that the character only reacts to what they know. There's nothing wrong with picking up hints or clues about what's going on all over the ship, but even powerful telepaths should be mindful to keep some surprise in store for their characters.

{{Heading|Logs of All Sorts|#EC599D}}
Logs are an important part of our character’s lives as it gives us yet another look at how they think, act, and feel in the Star Trek universe. This also allows a different writing style and a diversion for the usual writing style of UFOP: Starbase 118 RPG.
To send a log of any sort to the official IC list, it is recommended that you make sure to include the type of log, the stardate, and in the subject line the tag <nowiki>[LOG]</nowiki>. Example: '''<nowiki>[</nowiki>LOG<nowiki>]</nowiki> Captain’s Log Stardate: 239202.18'''
The content of the log is up to the person writing it and just has to remain in the PG-13 rating as required for all writing in the fleet.
Please note, Logs '''DO NOT''' count towards your required sim total.
