[QUOTE="moritheil, post: 4272933, member: 30610"] Quick note about "compressed time." Occasionally there are parts where I am fast forwarding or "compressing" time so as to not narrate boring things like days when nothing happens except for item creation. If you want to stick in activities in compressed time, please feel free to do so as long as they make sense. (Obviously if I have 2 days of compressed time your character can't take a week's worth of actions; if something isn't obvious just ask.) I will particularly be willing to accept a certain amount of backdating if it smooths out the story line and makes things move forward conveniently (i.e. rather than stop the story line and take a day off to go shopping, assuming you can, if you instead assume you bought X item previously when you were able to do so I will be inclined to let it go. I will veto it if you are not able to go shopping now, were not able to buy this item in the past, etc. I may still veto it if I feel it's more reasonable or better for the story if you [I]are[/I] forced to drop things and go shopping.) All in all, I'll act with a good story/good experience/good RP in mind. ;) Oh, and this process of judging can be avoided entirely by stating well in advance "as soon as we get time I will do X" and then reminding me later (with a link, if you want to be extra helpful.) :D It's the normally illegal "retcon" (retro-edit) that I'm talking about here.
