| | Posted: | | | | I was wondering, can dividers be used for separating writing credits? For example, many of the DC Universe Animated movies have separate credits for each character (i.e. Superman Created by Jerry Siegel & Joe Shuster; Batman created by Bob Kane, etc) and right now there are just a jumbled with "Original Characters by" attached. Locally I've added some but wasn't sure if it can even be submitted. |

Locally, I use custom roles for this. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.
There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom.
Against this power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand.

Batman Created by
Bob Kane The rules don't allow for a group divider on the "Batman Created by" credit because Bob Kane is not a "crew team". So if we cannot use it for the one, should we really use it for the other? --------------- |

are simply credits and don't warrant a divider. I agree, but I feel the same way about song credits and look where we are with those. And I notice that the latest proposed rules update proposes nothing to help clear up the matter. --------------- |

| | Posted: | | | | Ah, ok. Then will have to keep local. Kind of a pain to have to go back and add them in if I want to submit. Also unfortunate the rules update doesn't address it. |

I fully understand where you are coming from...which is why I use custom roles. Those allow me to have the data I want and still be able to contribute, should I need to, without having to do that. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.
