Help[Games] Pioneer Congrats: Sign-Ups
We'll try this once more, and I promise that I'll try to actually do it up right for once, okay?
NOTE: This Congrats will require you to write a bit about your fam each round. If you don't want to do that, please don't sign up, okay? Part of the fun of this one is telling the story of your families. :D
Rules
-You will be required to write a little piece about your family each round, including signups. Won't be long or complicated, but if you don't want to write? Don't sign up.
-I'm limiting this to twenty-five people, or else I'll get horribly overwhelmed.
-No spelling changes. Nicknames are acceptable.
-For middle names, you may choose either from the surnames list or from the appropriate first names list. You must choose only from the first names list for first names.
We're going to be making up pioneering families for this Congrats, and our story will start in 1843, when your husband and wife married. Are they back East, getting ready to look for new prospects in the West? Are they traveling already? Are they settling into a new life somewhere? Don't feel like you have to limit yourself to the inevitable destination of Oregon. Anything west of Missouri is fair game. ;)
Now, then, the form!
