[QUOTE="gamerprinter, post: 8552541, member: 50895"] I was just explaining why I play, run, design and publish railroads generally, but I only write one-shots (and when I do, I don't even know who is going to run, or play in it, nor any of their backstories, so I cannot plan for that in a one-shot) so sandbox isn't ideal for a one-shot, a short plot, escape from the giant starship before it blows up - simple enough plot, doesn't take much. But you all have different approaches, even different definitions of what a story is, great. I'm glad. But I have no intention to convince anybody to do things my way, you're more than welcome to play the game how ever best works for you - I'm sure you're playing in a way that is fun for you and your friends, and that's all that matters. I didn't post to disagree with anybody, nor offer some worldly claim of knowledge on some non-existent best way to play. I only know what's best for me. Anything beyond that is just a hollow conversation. I don't need consensus. So you don't like my dichotomy, so what, I don't care. I wasn't trying to suggest you should. My work and participation is done here. ;) [/QUOTE]
