[QUOTE="Steve_MND, post: 6811449, member: 6801314"] Are any of these actually detailed anywhere as being the results of the summaries? I ask, because I've not seen anything along those lines. Sure, we get some season recaps here and there, and some veiled references to previous mods are seen in some mods, but in most of those I've seen so far, they are somewhat opaque and it's difficult to see them as 'this is something that occurred because the players did something' versus 'this is what we had planned all along for this storyline.' Also, regarding the low amount of critical event summaries -- you guys need to see if you can possibly extend the dates available for reporting some of these mods. By the time they make it out to the stores for availability, many of them only have a month or less on which to report, in which case getting a table together in that short time frame is often tricky for us smaller locales. Heck, I remember a pair of mods that by the time they became available for store play, they had a grand total of two days left to report in. I believe they were extended a bit after the fact, but no official notification of that went out that I was aware of, and we only stumbled across that fact because I was wandering around the website and noticed that they were still there a couple days after the mod said they would be viable. Maybe I'm way out of the loop here, but the fact that apparently so many large-scale decisions have actually come about as a result of the 'official reports' is rather a bit of a shock, as I had seen little to no evidence of that so far. Having the storyline develop as a result of player actions is amazing, but if we never know about those consequences, it's as if it didn't happen. [/QUOTE]
