[QUOTE="JohnBrown, post: 67052, member: 2243"] [b]Lord Melkor[/b] No, just was tired last night when it arrived. Besides I am preparing a fairly lengthy (and hopefully funny) IC response. Suggestion to Everyone -- How would you feel about a "Diplomacy" style turn based situation it might work something like this: Everyone emails Edena with there specific moves for the turn (I am spending X points on Industrialization, moving X PL of armies here,etc.). When I say specific, I mean pretty specific, such as "I am moving 20 PL worth of troops to Greyhawk through the Kevellond League territory, skirting the Nyr Dyv and avoiding as much as the population as possible as to not seem hostile to William", etc. Once Edena has collected all of them, he reads them, rules on the actions, and posts the results All of us are allowed to 3 posts to adjust to the "events of the battlefield", but we can't completely undo a emailed statement. For example, we could call off an attack, but not pretend that the forces didn't mass on the border (something I did a lot last night). People can then make additional posts to role-play, joke, have a good time, etc. Repeat process. This would slow things down, allow time for people to clarify things with Edena, build alliances, etc. I also think it would help to emphasize role-play, since it wouldn't be such a sprint to try to cram message after message. Anyway, just a thought. Again I did have a good time last night. John [/QUOTE]
