Re: GM Questions
Can spell scroll purchases be done off-screen or do they need threads?

Off screen is fine, but if you wanna experience the high-octane thrill of purchasing items, by all means:Akh Uur Hoon wrote: ↑Thu Aug 10, 2023 7:54 amCan spell scroll purchases be done off-screen or do they need threads?

Re: GM Questions

If so, that should help me settle for something else though, so that's good!
Thanks!

Re: GM Questions
Concerning the Arena. Should we just roll the challenge all in one go in post? Or should we actually start a thread and introduce ourselves to the pitboss?

Re: GM Questions
At the point (as is common occurrence) where I have no idea what the game expects me to do so...
Could we have a rough estimate of how proactive you wish players to be? Both for anything related to the main chaos plot and for players driven side plots.
In other words, should requests to the GM be exceptional, commonplace, or somewhere in between?
Also, is the game designed in that things always happen on a given IC day, meaning there's little interest delving too deep into what's happening as we'll always be hitting a wall? The extreme opposite, where nothing will happen at all if we just wait and see? Some midpoint?

Re: GM Questions
Thank you, Dare, that is a VERY good question.
Re: GM Questions
Somewhat common place. This game is supposed to be a "day in the life" game with a few things thrown in, so I am doing my best to use your background and the things you are doing to build events and experiences. I very much expect people to bother the staff to do stuff, so by all means, if there is a personal plotline or objective you want us to explore with your characters, poke us.Dare Shah wrote: ↑Fri Aug 11, 2023 2:59 pmAt the point (as is common occurrence) where I have no idea what the game expects me to do so...

Only one thing that has occurred is supposed to occur over time, but that is due to its nature. Every other thread that I have seen can be solved at whatever pace you can achieve it. If you miss something or get lost, what happens is a larger piece gets revealed, so you don't get discouraged...Also, is the game designed in that things always happen on a given IC day, meaning there's little interest delving too deep into what's happening as we'll always be hitting a wall?

I'm trying not to tease ya'll or drag stuff along slowly (sans one thing), I swear.

Re: GM Questions
Last level up thing. Mostly amounting to reporting choices and asking whether I should do the changes on the char sheet myself.
Thanks again!

Re: GM Questions
You can change the sheet and note the changes in a post on the character sheet thread.
