What is a Captain DM ?
A Captain DM is the exact same as a Chief DM – except they are only covering ONE DAY (there are 4 Captains, to spread out the work load). The Captain DM is the one who runs the day to day running of TEASE and handles all issues with the support of the various Coordinators. Since this is a multi day / multi focused Conference (not just a Play Party) the Captain DM’s are essentially Assistant Chief’s for one day (that is why there is 4 Captains) – otherwise the Chief DM would burn out by the second day, and we would like to avoid that. Captain DM’s decide if a scene is to be interrupted or ended for rule violations. It is not normally a duty of a DM’s to interrupt play at TEASE (they are just the eyes and ears of the Captains). A DM might try to catch a Tops eye to discreetly (without bothering the bottom) let them know of potential rule violation (or to clarify) – if ignored they will inform the Captain – who WILL interfere. Obvious rule violations are reported by the DM’s to the Captai
