From the introduction: Stårgåte Live Åction Role Plåying (Stargate LÅRP) is designed as a 24 hour time in style system. Within that time there is Uptime when the characters are actively on missions, and Soft Time, when the characters are based at the gate command. It is possible for players to go off base (out of character) during this time. If you want to leave you must notify the base staff they are leaving and change out of costume. It is vital that the organizers know who is and is not on site at all times.
