| Just to preface this: I don't think we've ever had any guidelines on writing AARs; Medea likes mine, and I'm certain of what they need to contain. Also noone seemed to want to get the ball rolling. | Just to preface this: I don't think we've ever had any guidelines on writing AARs; Medea likes mine, and I'm certain of what they need to contain.

| The only time you don't need to write an AAR is if nothing happened and nothing was achieved. The rest of the time. Why not. There are a few people who are very bad at writing these.
