DISCUSSION: To Plot and Beyond

[thusiamods]

Hey guys, your resident mods here with a... not quite a full-out discussion post, but we'd like to get some ideas and points of note out there and your feedback on the matter. Particularly involving the latest plot and currently running plotlines. There have been a few discussions on plurk, but we'd like to have something more formal to make sure everyone has the opportunity to read and get their input on things that'll affect them.

There's a few things we'd like to touch upon with this post, the main points revolving around current/past/future plots and how we as mods can make things more fun for you in the way we handle them. Also on our agenda are things like State of the Game, God Functions, Player Accessibility, and probably more. To keep things organized, we'll be using header comments to cover specific topics and linking them in the post for easy navigation, so once you see a topic linked here, feel free to jump right to it.

Re: AFFECTING THE GODS

I actually really like the combination. Mostly I've been doing a lot of 2 and 4. Albi has been responding to personal interactions, but Albi and Kali have pretty much said they can keep each other from going too far with something. And for a while, a lot of that was 'don't get attached because that will hurt.' Then personal interactions and a bit of 1 has made it more or less impossible for Albi not too. (Since the biggest sense of responsibility people would have, I feel, is in taking care of others for the general population.) And 3 seems to fit in well enough for any god who knows the system. Or just unintentional. (One day, Albi could just get ice cream as a domain with how much it's associated with her.)

And there's plenty of reasons why some of the stuff doesn't take as well with some gods, but really well with others? Like I've been mostly playing with 2 and 4 being affective on Albi because of her origins, which holds a leaning to being responsible for OTHERS, so she responds to them. If not the most socially graceful way, she tries to do what's best by them.
