I suspect this thread has run out of steam and this is coming too late, but...
Now that I have some experience under my belt with the ways of Enworld, I would have in retrospect made a few key changes to the thread:
- Change the title to something more accurate like Discussing Changes to Prisoner 13
- Marked it as a (+Ideating) thread, which means it's only for discussing net new things to the adventure as written (vs status quo arguments)
- I would have re-structured the OP, to improve understanding, as it conflates a few different things
My hunch is that controversial topics generate most of the activity and ideating threads tend to get very little responses/comments, which is unfortunate, but at least it would make this thread a safer place for anyone who did want to discuss possible changes, and impose less on the sensibilities of those who like it as is.
In the end, I got at least one idea that works for my gaming table, from
@Maxperson so thank you for that!
I also thought about implementing the above changes, but that felt unfair because it would retroactively affect the optics of every post that was written in response to the original OP.
Cheers everyone!
