[QUOTE="Shayuri, post: 6043949, member: 4936"] Ah! Okay, I guess it's just a sort of difference in timing or expectation then... This is mostly an in-combat thing, as well. I write my combat posts in an open-ended style...which is to say I post what I do, but do not conclude with the results of that action. That's because I figure the GM will then fill in the results based on his own knowledge of the conditions (enemy defenses, saves, etc). I'm not asking that you repost what I write. Just include something that tells me what the results of my posted actions are. There's been times I didn't know if I hit or missed, for example. Things like the darkness could easily be handled in the next Death Magnetic post too, since it has no direct effect until she tries to act. That's fine. It's useful though for me...just on a psychological basis if nothing else...to have some kind of description of what happens because of my actions. It gives me that little 'yay' feeling that makes me want to post more, to say nothing of just helping me make tactical decisions about what to do next. :) Thanks for the response and explanation!
