[QUOTE="Charlaquin, post: 7462366, member: 6779196"] No, that helps. Quote a lot, in fact. You may have said all this “before,” but you did not say it in the opening post of this thread, and I am not aware of the entirety of your posting history. That was the exact same question! See, that’s a helpful answer. That tells me that I shouldn’t bother suggesting solutions that involve such states unless they satisfy your other design goals extremely well. That will help focus my design. If you aren’t willing to rule it out completely, just tell me THAT. Telling me “It’s fine if it’s fun” is meaningless because I can’t read your mind and I don’t know what’s fun to you. Telling me “I don’t generally like such mechanics, but I’m not totally closed to the possibility” is useful information. Well, they didn’t. Anyway, thank you for your input. I’ll take it into account and throw some ideas out there. [/QUOTE]
