Quote from: Skarg;859210I see. I do "channel" large amounts of stuff similar to how you say, but I also write a lot down (as much as I can without slowing things down), because otherwise I know I will forget or mis-remember details, or generate inconsistent stuff, and I like abundant consistent details and mapped locations and so on.

Well, and I "channel" when I make worlds, and I determine what's where are what's going on and keep notes on (and maps of) all that too. So while I channel for source, it's what generates a lot of pre-generated information that has me going into game sessions already knowing a lot about the setting, so the generation there is mostly about details and what actually happens. I rarely invent entire major things that didn't exist before during play sessions, at least in my preferred GM mode.
