RULE #1- THE SUBJECT LINE RULE

The USS Challenger has a unique rule set forth by Captain T'Pen, so that detailed records on each mission and player can be kept up-to-date. It is a MUST, and strictly enforced.

The subject line of each SIM must include:

  • Rank, Name, Location, Duty Post, "Name of Mission,"
  • AND if the SIM is extremely long or extremely short, then (long) or (short) should also be included.
  • You can add a creative title if you have room.

There is no clear cut rule as to what constitutes long or short. It is generally accepted that the writer makes that judgment based on the average length of his or her own normal SIMs.

Subject Line Example: Ensign Charles Warren, SO - Brig - "Then there was one" (short)

Note: When submitting a Joint Post, the subject line should begin with JP by, the the Rank and Names of all characters participating in the Joint post, PLUS all the information included in "Rule 1."

Example of a JP Subject Line:

JP by Ens Alan Kroft, Lt. Sander Spake, & Dr. William Rynos, MOs - Sickbay - "Viral Mishap" (long)

When SIMing an NPC, designate the character as an NPC on the subject line before the name.

Example: NPC Debra Bothnet, Nurse - Sickbay - "Viral Mishap"


Ranks can be abbreviated as follows. The entire rank name is not needed.
