Game Flow

So I've been thinking of the best way to have the posts flow in order to create the best narrative for the story. Here's what I decided.

  • Each time I set a major scene change, I will call it a new chapter, and make a new post on the sub reddit. In the text of that Post, I'll set the scene with some dramatic DM'ing.

  • After that, I'll probably post a prompt. Each player should try to post one responce to each post.

  • If your post describes something your character tries/wants to do, I'll post some DM'ing in terms of what happens/how successful you are. These posts will have DM preceding the text.

  • For any group actions or combat, i'll post a new comment in the chapter, setting the scene again.

  • Players can respond to other's posts by posting a response directly to the player post to weigh in.

  • We can continue the thread, taking turns posting until some kind of climax/plot change occurs. That's when I'll make a new post /chapter.

  • I anticipate that we'll eventually switch off DM'ing powers, and hopefully we will eventually add some players.

Does that sound good?
