This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quote from: Xenon;358259wow, leave the room for a minute and chaos breaks loose, all from the NPCs no less. you would almost think the GM was trying to make things happen. looks like Rey has violent friends.

now im wondering at volume, distance, and how soundproof the walls are.
:) well leave half a dozen NPCs in a room together ... Surely the signs were there :)

I have found that one of the limits to the wiki format and remote asynchronous play in general is that large events take an age to play through and this puts pressure on the patience of the players so an occassional GM poke where on a table you would let the scene breathe is required.

BTW - on a completely different note, does anybody know how to remove a Quick link on the Wiki?

I can edit the Recent changes page but remember that if you had a page only you could see then when you delete it even though you can still see it flagged as deleted only you can see it flagged as deleted (i think )

I understand how to delete a page. My issue is with the Quick links. Surely, besides being able to add a Quick link, you should be able to remove a Quick link?

true I was talkogn about deleting the link to the page that appears in the Recent updates list (which is how I nearly always navigate the wiki truth be told).

For Quick links go to Settings on the top most menu list (next to Tristram ). Hit that it gives you a list of various options and one of them is your Quick links list. You can just pull the line out of there and sorry for the confusion (sometimes I have to accept that people do actually want the answer to the question they asked and not teh question i think they meant to ask :) ).

Aha - got it. Thanks for putting me straight on this issue. I know it may not seem important but I actually like using the Quick Links.:p

Very impressed with the current trend of linked crossing threads. Nice :) Might get hard to maintain but nice.

Just to give you a look behind the curtain that I think will let you know I do have a plan. The GM schema such as it is follows a plan in which the current separate themes play out over the next few days. Then there is another mass scene, the Wedding, and then the threads will diverge and follow their own courses. In addition there should be flashback episodes running which server to highlight current events or establish elements. These will deminish as the current game expands. The meta aim of this to to ensure all players have at least one thread they can post to that doesn't rely on other players updates so as to ensure people have a space to play as much as they wish and not be rdelayed by others. On top of all that of course are the threads that players create themselves such as Trump contacts, clandestine meetings and lavish lunches.

Lastly, Goals. I explained this at the outset but it has so far slid a little, but Stormwind submitting Elaine's goals has reminded me.
XP in this game is given for achieving goals. Some will be plot goals that I have put in place but others will be personal goals. So I need from each of you about 3 goals or so and I will assign each of them an xp value of 1 - 5 points. A goal needs to involve conflict of some type as XP in Amber is given for overcoming obstacles. So learning to play the violin is something you do with the experience you gain from achieving your goals and not a goal in itself.

Glad to provide entertainment ;)

It was completely accidental :D ... I didn't plan him at all, he just evolved that way ;)
Actually he's been slowly gaining a bit of color and fleshing out during recent events (completely incidentally), so I might even have to figure out a name for him at some stage.

Please do. We need a clumsy kawai character for comic relief, and the occasional "aaaaaw", sometimes... that's until Jibbajibba get him kidnapped by the dark witches of the East of shadows or sth ;)

I think Turner is a good name for a page, but that might be a pun that gets old pretty fast....
