It is easier to keep up with act spending and serves as a quick way to look back at past actions. It can get annoying when looking back in the thread to find previous actions if you have to skim entire posts for them.
There will be plenty of posts that may have no actions at all so it makes it easier if people only have to check the bottom of the posts for any act spending, and not have to read through a bunch of flavor text. I'll give an example.
"And the god Dem Onstration looked at the void surrounding the star and was displeased. He put out his hand and made a rocky planet. It would be a Utopia for his future creations, and so that is what it was named. (3 Acts)
Next he reached into the planets core and squeezed to melt it down. The purpose was to shield the planets future life from the harmful rays of the sun with a powerful magnetic field. (1 Act)
He next brought forth a great many rain clouds to cover the planet with water. His world would be covered in oceans, vast and blue. The land that remained uncovered would serve as the resting place of his future creations and worshipers. While the deep depths would house a great many creatures and mysteries. (2 Acts)
With what remained of his power he put a great abundance of iron on the planet. This would be used by his future children to create many a fantastic creation. Tools of science and luxury and, if it came down to it, war. (3 Acts)"
When going back to reread posts, it is easier for people to read the actions like this.
Create Utopia, an Earth sized planet- 3 Acts
Melt Utopia's core- 1 Act
Cover two thirds of Utopia in water- 2 Acts
Make iron an abundant resource on Utopia- 3 Acts
