[QUOTE="CanadienneBacon, post: 5384750, member: 11146"] If you go with a "who posts first" model, then you negate the Improved Initiative feat. And also burn everyone who put good points into a better Dexterity score. I'm not a fan of that. I prefer straight init, in order, just like you've been doing. If you're going to improve one thing, it should maybe be your DM communication/posts in the IC. It seems like you know exactly what is going on (don't most DMs? :)), but there may be a disconnect in the way you communicate/post that info. It would be helpful for me to know whether my PC hits/does damage in your DM posts for each round. As it went this past combat, I saw damage dealt to a wolf but had no idea who did the damage because there was perhaps not enough in the text itself from you that said who did what. Thanks for keeping an open mind. [/QUOTE]
