I share with two other people, and while it is informally do your own dishes, pick up your own mess, do the rest collectively as needed...we're a wee bit useless. Clean, but bombsite would characterise our shared space.
On the other hand, we have tried rotas and such and they always fell by the wayside. So now we've figured out the things each of cannot live with, and try not to do them: I hate things being left in the sink. These days, this is generally respected. K hates preparation leftovers being left sitting. This is universally respected. E can't cope with thigns being put away wrong. Everything has a place and lives there.
None of this is written down though, we've just lived together for eight (me and E) and five (K) years respectively.
