HOW'S THE GAME?

HOW'S THE GAME?

It's been awhile! It's time for another round of Game Discussion, also known as "How's The Game?"

Here we come together to discuss the game, its plots, the settings, and just about anything we can think of that we'd like to talk about, expand upon, improve, change, etc.

This is not an HMD for players and their characters; this should be about the game's function as a whole and not the people in it. If there is something you feel is absolutely necessary to address that involves a specific person, please IM a mod first to discuss it. We can be reached at terraqueous orb (Kayla), end title (Fudgey) or a great fanfare (Jenn). (Though Jenn is on hiatus right now because her laptop is broken, so Kayla or Fudgey would be best for right now!)

Anonymous will be left off for this round (see first section).

Here are the sections that we've come up with. Add your own and we'll edit it into the list.

Anonymous: Why is it turned off?
What do the mods/helpers do, anyways?
How is my activity being monitored?
Activity check changes
Applications/turnover rate
 → Test Drive Comm
Abilities on the application
Villains & Heroes
 → Recent Villain Activity
 → Upcoming Villain Activities/Plots
Death
World Plot/Paradisa Lore
 → Concrete Resolutions, etc.
Canon Updates
Mini-plot Planning
Changes since last HTG
Plots in General
Regular Plots?

How's The Game will now be held quarterly, in order to avoid excessively long stretches in which there is no outlet for discussion.

My only concern is that the post has been up a while -- and I'm not sure that everyone would see another section added into the mix, now. This is something that effects everyone in a big way -- the plots potentially shape the building of CR and the flow of our characters' moods and development.

You have a point, but we'd link it up in the top sections list where everyone can see. If we don't get enough/many responses we can always link it seperately on the OOC comm. :)

I DON'T KNOW I'M JUST LAZY and I imagine a lot of other people are too. I figure for something important you'd hypothetically want the most feedback in the laziest way available, and a poll is great for that. A few buttons to click without the need to tl;dr or anything, and you have people telling you what they felt about the types of plots we've had and would like in the future :>

Either way we'll get feedback, I just think we'll get better quality feedback with a discussion post/meme reserved for that!

Makes sense. However, I'm really worried that with all of these memes and OOC things proposed for plotting and CR etc etc popping up on here that people will be spending too much time OOC and not enough time actually .... playing the game, rofl.

I think what I'm gonna try to do to compromise here is set up a section in here for discussing the subject and based on what we hear here I'll throw up a poll later with the options brought up here? Does that seem fair?
