re: Move 1

[yhlee]

A player character has asked a question re: mission leadership in Move 1 and I'm opening an OOC thread to ask what y'all would like to do. Please read the comment over there, then respond to this post with your thoughts. (I'd do it over there, but we're up to 80+ comments on Move 1 already, which is going to be hard on folks playing the game over mobile, so I thought a new post for discussions would be best.)

To reiterate:

[GM/OOC: Before I respond to this, I would suggest that a logical mission leader should have some kind of history with the resistance (so, not a newcomer) and, ideally, military, intelligence, or diplomatic background as well. Does anyone in the player group want to volunteer? If not, I'll assign someone based on GM judgment and/or hilarity.]

Hmm, how often are you expecting people to be around in order to fully participate in this game? I did have an opinion (not on the leadership question exactly, but sort of related), but I have been busy for the last couple of days and haven't checked back until now. (And wow is there a lot to catch up on for only being away for a couple of days.)

I sort of thought this was a game where being around a couple of times a week was what was expected (I know I saw it somewhere)...

If a constant presence is needed, or really anything above the twice a week because I do have other creative things going on and can't commit to more, then I should bow out.

Let me know!

Yeah, at this point it looks like the game is going to be moving at...a faster pace. I'm truly sorry--I had anticipated that it would go at a more relaxed pace than this, which was why I went with "twice a week minimum" in the guidelines. I don't think throttling people to fewer posts a week is going to be realistic, especially when the majority are posting more actively. I'll miss you, and I'm sorry things have turned out like this, but I respect your need to manage your creative endeavors!

Yeah, I think it's going to be too fast for me to keep up with. I've been in almost this exact situation before with a game, and I tried to run faster for a while but ended up dropping out in the end, so I might as well skip the middle bit this time.

I wish you and all the players the very best, I'm sure it's going to be awesome.

So noted--I'll remove Elesa from the active player roster, and good luck with all your other endeavors!

Thank you!
