"The Game of Life", or TGoL, is a semi-realistic, post-by-post, wolf roleplay site based around a chess metaphor for a war between two packs: Light and Dark Pack,
respectively, to match the light and dark pieces on a chess board. The wolves themselves don't know anything about chess of
course, only that they are locked in a seemingly eternal battle for the rights to their thriving yet limited land. Tensions are
high, blood has been shed, and all must be careful which move they make next, for it could either ensure a victory for them or the end of everything. You, as a player, may either play a wolf
from one of the packs, directly involved with the war in some way, or a loner on the outside, either looking in, taking advantage of the distracted packs, or staying out of
it all together.

SPRING 01
The ice and snow of winter are finally starting to melt away as things warm up, making way for budding flowers, returning prey, and spring showers. Mating season is no longer in effect, but those whom did get pregnant should expect to give birth within the season, towards the beginning of Summer. Prey is steadily becoming a little more plentiful, which is good news, but all of the melting snow/ice and the spring showers are causing The Divide and Flatlands to flood, coaxing both packs to stay on their respective sides... lest they wish to get swept down stream.

A new announcement has been made in regards to major revisions/additions to the site! Read here.
4.2.2018 -
An "Activity" section has been added to the Rules thread, since I realized this was never clearly defined. In addition to this, a thread for making characters inactive and a thread to take an offical abesence have been added. I've also enabled guests to be able to view the IC and Player Record Book boards in their entirety so you can get a feel for activity/characters before joining the site!
4.1.2018 -
The theme's been changed to have a little more color and to be a bit more visually appealing!
3.4.2018 -
TGoL has offically been completed and is now open to new members, so feel free to join and submit your characters for acceptance! We have many high rank positions open in both packs and would like to get those filled as soon as possible. Also, please advertise us to anyone you think might be interested!
If you as a player feel you won't be able to be very active for a certain amount of time (be it because of school, work, stress, lack of muse, etc.), you may take an absence, which will excuse you and your characters from any activity checks held during that time. Now, if it's only certain characters you won't be able to role play, you may wish to just make those certain characters inactive, which can be done here.
Unlike with making chars inactive, you don't have to tie up every single thread you're involved in, but you will need to post here stating what players you are roleplaying with are allowed to do with your chars while you're gone. Additionally, you will need to set a time for when you are returning, and will not be allowed to just say indefinitely; if you aren't sure how long you'll be gone, we'd prefer you to just list a long absence time than leave it open ended.
Fill out the form below to take an absence and understand that unless you post here to prolong it, you will be applicable for the activity checks following your return.
