Role-Playing

If you're a role-player then you've been asked to play a stakeholder who isn't you. You're playing a role - hence "role-player".
If you've been given an email address and a password, then when you log in, you'll see your primary identity in the top left corner of the screen. It's this person that you're pretending to be.
Note that you may also be impersonating other, additional stakeholders. You'll be able to inhabit these stakeholders via drop-downs at important places in the channel.
Please check the stakeholder you're role-playing each time you change channel.
The image below shows Conducttr's "virtual desktop". Note that it is customisable by the exercise designer and so the channel icons could look quite different.
Usually a person is asked to play a role because they have subject matter expertise. This means you are a valuable person to have on the exercise and may be asked to perform other duties such as reviewing & commenting on player activity and proving input to the adjudication process.
The tabs below describe some common questions you might have.
The permission to impersonate stakeholders is given by the facilitator. Ask them to enable someone if it's missing from a drop-down list (or it could be that stakeholder isn't active on that channel)
Content published by the exercise will appear in your SENT folder because it's been sent by you (or at least the stakeholder you're pretending to be).
Social media works as it does in real life. Your feed will only show content from people you follow. Use the spyglass (magnifying glass) to see all Tweets
