this is where we post news to the masses. activity checks and other announcements will be made here by the staff.

here at it's a mad world we are a no application site. which means all you have to do is register your character then take care of your claims. this way, we can just play and not have to worry about all those pesky application deals. however, if we get registrations in more than one category, then we'll have to take matters into our own hands and assign bans. i know that no one wants to be in a war, but being a soldier could be fun for plot development.

this is one of the most important sections to a site. here you will find all the claims that will apply to your character once you have been accepted. do not

do you have a specific character that you need to push your plots along? need a specific lover or friend? here you can post an ad and see if another member is willing to take this other character on. most of the members here are willing participants in plots, so you are likely to find someone.

have so many plots with members that you can't keep track of all of them in your head? well here you can post a nice thread to keep them all in one spot.

be it msn, yahoo, aim, or everything else inbetween, everyone seems to use instant messaging over the internet. pick a fun screenname and go nuts. talk to people across the world, or in the next room, that's your perogative.

one of the main ways of communication between soldiers and their loved ones are letters, so this is where that takes place, as well as those nifty notes passed around in classrooms.

due to a local tragedy, the park in which logan darko was found dead was named after him, per the family's request. there is a memorial plaque in place for the young man with his date of birth, a marble image, and a thoughtful inscription. the park is gorgeous and lush, it's a nice place to be at one with nature.

a coffee phenomenon that has taken over the world. there is a small little shop on the corner in downtown dermont where most of the high school and college kids loiter at. the coffee and food is great so it's no doubt why the locals gravitate here.

alcohol consumption is something that everyone partakes in, legal or not. here at ivan's roadhouse, he cards, but if you are on his good side, he might just be able to sneak you a few beers without anyone noticing. and if you are eighteen years old, he might be able to score you a job if you need one.

there are small shops and boutiques on this street where many of the females of dermont like to haunt. you may find a sandwich shop here and there, it's very old american. you may even find an occult shop run by a local old bat that some people are a little wary of.

when citizens of dermont leave the plain of existence, they are buried out here. there are more plots out here than you would originally expect, and there is a cathedral right smack dab in the middle of the cemetery. it's where most of the funerals are held, it saves money.

the place of good food and fancy clothing, it is again a place where the united states can find solace, knowing that they are on their side. troops are planning on moving toward france, so they are an allied

we all have a life outside of roleplaying, unless you are the character themselves. so post here if you're going to be absent for a period of time or leaving the site permanently. there are routine activity checks, so keep yourself safe with a heads up.

this is where the plugging happens. there are both first time and linking back boards, so post carefully. we do check them. also, if spamming becomes an issue: dermont, we have a problem. this is currently guest friendly, so post away.
