[QUOTE="hawkeyefan, post: 9635814, member: 6785785"] What questions do you think remain unaddressed? Gimme a bullet point list and I’ll answer them in kind. So you see a decision the GM makes entirely on their own, and one that must include the player’s choice of score, the approach and detail, and any information learned via gather information moves as being the same, huh? Is that really your argument? What game are you thinking of in particular? Or what play style? What are the other principles that guide the GM? We know you’re in favor of predetermined setting or scenario “facts”. What other principles guide your play? Where did these principles come from? I mean… so far the strongest post in favor of what I think is your style was made by [USER=16586]@Campbell[/USER] … everything else has been vague talk about “organic” play and assertions about games you’re not familiar with. So elaborate on what you do know. Describe a principled approach to play that works for you based on what you want out of play. Do it without the need to put down any other style of play. [/QUOTE]
