I think they should do something to bring back that feeling of ownership.... in Florida we WHERE the PoU and we felt like what we did mattered... unless you are VERY quick to respond to player events (3 months tops) then players start to feel disconnected from events. With LG we felt changes over the span of weeks sometimes. And yes, I know how HARD it can be to respond to player input/events, we strived to give players almost immediate impact in the Living Arcanis campaign... and it was a pain in the ass, but it was worth it.I also loved the way LC would run their organizations, you could get in through adventures or be invited by a fellow player who happen to be a member of such a group, Rp'n out being someone squire for an entire convention to gain membership in a Knight hood is the stuff cool RP'n stories are made of... I also fear the lack of home play options will do more harm then good... I already know two tables worth of people who are skipping out on the Adventurers League because where are far more interested in D&D Expeditions then the published adventures, So they already said they are sticking to Pathfinder... sorry, running games at a store is fun and all... but when you have 4 tables of people in close proximity (most stores are not all that big) it can get loud and crowded.. doing that every week... not for many players.</blockquote>
