[QUOTE="Jeph, post: 2247630, member: 6738"] Hi guys, I've done two 24 Hour RPGs ([url=http://www.1km1kt.net/rpg/Once_Upon_a_Time_and_Long_Ago.php]One Upon a Time and Long Ago[/url] for 2004, which is rather good, and [url=http://www.1km1kt.net/rpg/Sunrise.php]Sunrise[/url] for 2003, which is rather bad), so maybe I can offer my perspective on this. In the 24 hour game and 24 hour comic, you have a GOAL of reaching 24 pages: it's not a requirement, it's something to shoot for. Some people did just a plain word document with nothing but text, some people did a bit of formatting, some people, like Mr. Reed here, did the whole shebang. The point of the 24 hour time limit and 24 page goal is to stimulate creativity under pressure. Some people are liable to have more of those pages be filled with stat blocks or art than plot and character descriptions, some aren't--point is, the way that you fill those pages doesn't really matter in the end, and if you hit your goal or not doesn't really matter either. You can always come back and touch up the game later, like Phil again. Basically, I'm saying that 24 hours and 24 pages is the way to go, rather than a word count requirement or what not. :) --Jeff [/QUOTE]
