[QUOTE="Yttermayn, post: 5306178, member: 31390"] Scott: Sure, since .1% of nothing is still nothing, I think I can accommodate you. ;-) As far as player death goes, I think most or all of the main characters should probably survive to the end. Your minor, secondary characters, however, may not... Which is my subtle way of saying that it would be awesome if each of you wanted to also create secondary, less fleshed out companion characters that probably have some kind of connection to your main char. They would be more or less NPC's controlled jointly. I wouldn't get all obsessed about their stats or skills or anything, the focus would be on relationships. Another thing I was thinking about was that at times, for dramatic/storytelling purposes, I have no problem with tossing out die rolls, particularly if there is an excellent paragraph of writing explaining how the task or check was accomplished or failed sitting in my PM inbox. This goes for both PC and NPC chars, I'd be writing them too. A third thing I was thinking about was that we should be strict about keeping OOC stuff exclusively in the OOC thread so as not to disrupt the story flow, and make it easier to retrieve and sort the thread into documents for editing later. Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
