## Writing

Even though most of the lore on the SMP is improvised, the members use treatments to know what should happen in each lore event. For example, when the lawyers visted Abenz in prison, they had a breif treatment of what was going to happen during the stream.

At the current moment there is no head writer for the SMP, but each character is in charge of their own lore. Some members received help from others (particuarly RTH, who helped Space and Onyx think of lore ideas for their characters.) and wrote with the respective creators' input.

Although many plot points are scripted, sometimes they do not play out as planned and the creators improvise instead, as seen during the Revival, where there was going to be a fight originally.

The canon lives system existed since the beginning of server at the time when the members decided to do lore on the server. Creators determine whether or not deaths are canon based on their relevance to the plot, and often joke about how canon unplanned or accidental deaths are. Currently, everyone on the server only has one canon life (as shown with the events during Snowboi's kidnapping).

## Bloopers

Although the events and overarching story are planned out in advance, there are still mishaps and funny moments that come out of every event, which has lead to many memorable and funny bloopers.
