So people, a question here. With the opening of the new SIM lumbering along there was some discussion amongst the over-inflated ego heads (Owners/Managers) about the DEPD, Hospital, a possible fire department and 911 roleplay calls in general.

For a long time 911 calls in DE have kind of been a bit of humour and joking, hopefully with an IC response. It's always been hard to properly co-ordinate an IC response though with the tangle of groups for the emergency services. So, there's been a proposal that for the new sim, there will simply be a single "Dead End Emergency Services" group that will cover the DEPD, Hospital and Fire Department, as in, no more individual groups. The thought is that it means anyone who plays in multiple departments need only use up one precious group slot, it'll make co-ordinating RP easier and managing the group easier (there will still be individual managers and tags for the DEPD, Hospital and Fire Department, each service will simply be based out of one SL group). After all, the SL group you are in does not dictate your RP.

My question is, what do you, the players, think of this. I'd like to hear from all DEPD, any remaning hospital members and the general public of Deadend as well as to their thoughts on this.

Thanks muchly in advance,
Kait Windlow, Dead End GM
