HOW'S THE GAME?

[paradisamods]

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 valawie (Valerie), fan of todd (TF), or never die ftw (Ashley).

Anonymous will be left off for this round. Sock journals are allowed, but you will have to request comm access to post with them.

This round will be an OPEN FORUM. Please feel free to bring up any game-related topic you'd like to discuss. All topics will be linked in the main post.

But!!! If we start allowing people to tag everything they've commented to with their character tag as mentioned above (without a qualifier/special tag like "c: Brock" to save space), how will you differentiate a closed joint Molotov/Brock post that other people tagged into from an open Molotov post? This is so wordy.

IN OTHER WORDS, Ezio, Spike, and Max also tagged into that post. Under the new system, it would be clearly Molotov's post, with additional tags for Brock, Ezio, Spike, and Max. How would this look to you in terms of AC?

unless i read the discussion about tags incorrectly which is possible

No, that brings up a good point! It's also why I'd prefer not just use one all-purpose tag if we start tagging entries we commented on. But this all needs to be a big discussion and voted upon first, of course.

The pros and cons of everything: a discussion.

But if we did use one generic tag, I'd see there's that room filter that pertains to just Brock. But this is where it all gets very technical so I'd hope there would be more clear "THIS IS A JOINT POST WITH SO AND SO" notes on the entry.

I should also note that I'd be paying closer attention to the joint posts because if someone is tagged in the entry but did like one or no tags to contribute, then I'm more likely not to give that character credit.

Okay, got it!!

Personally if we do go the route of tagging everything, I'd prefer if we had qualifying/special tags as well. But that would be a thing to be decided later, I guess!
