Posting your characters in should be a simple matter of having your characters arrive. Your post can include your character's happenings since the beginning of that morning, and you can interact with whomever is already present.
Also, this is the last entry point for whomever had wanted to join the Byakuren plot but couldn't (for some reason or another) participate. I plan, by next wednesday, move the plot onward. If these people have not posted for themselves by then, I will be moving the plot onward and that window of entry will be closed indefinitely.
Also, I expect everyone that does make it to be sufficiently present. You may wish to revise my posting guidelines on the wiki, where basically I give you 3 days to reply to a post that needs a response from your PC, and sideline the PC in a long-lasting fashion if I have to do that a second time in a row.
