Each house has developed a certain criteria for members. These criteria are based off your writing style. Though your personality and first impression are taken into account as well, they play only a minor role in which house you will be placed in.
NOTE The criteria is not heavily detailed as to make it easier on the members who process auditions; if they were insanely detailed, it would be almost impossible to place people, haha.
PALINDROME "Emotional writing with moderately detailed description and dialogue. Most of the attention to detail is spent on developing character and the character’s relations to other people/environment. Thought is used more than dialogue, although both are used throughout the piece. Length is moderate."
TRINITY "Simplicity is key to a Trinity member's writing. Other characteristics include colloquialisms, brash writing, short sentences, even fragments that work with the writer, not against him or her. It’s especially important, if the writer has fragments, that they are used properly. Characters tend to be very blunt themselves with a heavy mouth and strong emotions.
Description is sparse but used effectively. Length is not the greatest, but used to their advantage."
EPSILON "Extremely stylized with long, flowing sentences and extreme vocabulary. Length is another major factor here. The writer pays a lot of attention to description and setting. The way the characters interact with the environment is very delicate, for lack of a better word.
Character’s emotions are also well established in Epsilon’s writing, though more dramatically, unlike Palindrome’s."
HOW DO WE EARN POINTS? Post! Win challenges! Create challenges! Refer members!
There are a million and one different ways to earn points for your houses. For a complete list of deeds worth cash, click here.
WHY DO WE EARN POINTS? To earn prizes, of course. Points are tallied on the side bar. At the end of each month, whichever house has earned the most points will be rewarded with one or more prizes. As well, members earn their own points, which can be seen in your mini feed (the details underneath your avatar.) You can use these points to buy your own prizes in the bank.
WHAT DO HOUSE HEADS DO? Once you have been sorted into a house, you answer to your head. They choose individual rules for their house and moderate all posts. If you have questions, although you can direct them at administrators, that is why your house head is there. Bring them to him or her.
In the future, as Propaganda grows, house heads will likely have more to do around the site.
CAN I ROLE-PLAY WITH OTHERS OUTSIDE OF MY HOUSE? Of course you can! There isn't an plot or anything surrounding the houses, nor are you seperated by level. Role-play with whoever you want to, haha.
I WANTED TO BE IN A DIFFERENT HOUSE! You are placed into a house according to your writing style (and very vaguely your personality/first impression,) so there isn't much else we can do, unless you've changed your style and wish to be moved.
If you truly feel there is a mistake in which house you have been placed in, please contact an administrator or moderator.
If you have any questions that have not been answered here, please feel free to PM me. (:
