Change our timeline flow?

[Emiricol]

Wondering what you guys think about slowing the timeline down to one season per two months?

I am finding 1 season per month a bit fast, but that could just be me...

I find time to be racing by. Slowing things down is something I am WHOLE HEARTEDLY in favor of. I suggest that we go on a 2 months per season schedule as Emiricol has suggested to see how that goes.

Sounds like a good idea.

I always seem to find time running out on me.

We could slow things down, which is fine... I do like though that we can orchestrate long term ideas in a realatively realistic time. Also, this way characters can expect to age. If a player plays for a year their character ages 4 years. A teenager could become an adult, a fortress aided with magic can be built, a village could spring up, etc. If we slow down we do lose some of that ability, which is a really cool aspect of our game world, and a unique aspect of it.

I would be fine if we slowed things down, but I would rather not. I'd like to keep things the way they are.

I would suggest the we change it to maybe 2 months a real-time month. I know this ruins the idea of seasons, but still keeps the game-to-real time moving at a decent pace. While I like the idea if 1 season/2 months, it is basically real time. I think that's something we should avoid right now.

So that's... one season each 6 weeks. That gives a little more leeway. I can deal with that. Less than what I'd like, but more than we have now

 

[Emiricol]

If everyone can live with this, then the current season would actually change on Nov. 15th. How's that?

 

[DMEntropy]

That sounds good to me.

 

[Memnus]

That sounds alright to me, too. It'll give running campaigns more time to actually affect the world.

I'll write it up tonight for posting tomorrow Unless someone else would like to write it up and post here so I can cut and paste
