Well yes, but I think we have to consider the overheads that long discussions of this type create and the level of granularity that they can add to the game - too much for what should be more strategic and over-arcing in nature.

I can see that movement of this kind will significantly smooth the game flow, even though I am a major user of dispatches...

Maybe a Solomon solution would have been to have kept the old rules on AAs, but forbidden any pointless and will draining debates or DM directed questions on the subject.

I.E. There's a clear rule on how you get an AA.. you put it in your action, you describe the guy/girl and if you fail, you fail. (and you shouldn't be able to invest lots of RPs to get a level 20 wizard, without requiring the DM to provide you with a plausible solution).


P.S. I can't vote on the polls because I, too, love my dispatches, 2 player short novels, and my IC slugfest but not enough to burden the game with it if that's the effect it has.

Must be a coincidence; we have been working our DM's really hard  ::)

You dont joke with the real important stuff like RoE etc.

Could as well rob a bank and call aprilsfool when apprehended by the authorities  ;D

I've never been entirely clear what it is about becoming the DM that leads inevitably to seeking your enjoyment at the players' expense.  I ran my last game for less than two complete sessions before introducing them to a wise olld kindly wizard who began sending them to kill his rivals guiding them on their heroic path. 


They didn't find it as funny as I did when they got arrested in session 10 for multiple counts of murder.

Ah yesss, now where in this mighty fantasy is the person who'll do the actual pushing that leads to the dumping?
