I'm not really big on the whole chat thing in general considering it could work really well but has a lot of potential to become a complete mess. One big reason that I don't really go on the Total Drama Wiki is because they ban people like crazy over there for little things. Yes, rules do need to be in place, but I already see a few people suggesting "ban them if they don't listen". Obviously terrible things deserve a ban, but I know I've seen people over at the Total Drama Wiki get banned from the wiki for tiny things, so hopefully we can come up with different consequences (or like somebody else suggested a chat only ban).

Also, I think one rule that you might want to make for the chat is for writers not to give out spoilers for their own stories without warning everyone they're coming first. I know that if I was reading a story that was only on chapter two, I probably wouldn't want to log into the chat and see the author talking about who'll be eliminated five chapters down the road. Just a suggestion though.
