Definition of "Storyline"
A storyline is an event involving more than 1 person during a specific time period with a clear narrative. For example:
- Mr. A and Mr. B standing and arguing or insulting each other — this counts as a storyline that has already begun
- Mr. A goes to steal cement, wire, or other items — this counts as having a storyline with the police agency
Storylines may occur at any time while players are playing. However, whether it is considered official depends on whether the Prime Minister's office has been notified and an announcement has been made.
