Oxnard, how would you feel about using Discord in some capacity for the game? Something with as much complexity as this might benefit from it.
I'm not opposed in theory to using Discord or some other resource to leverage a game, but I don't know that it's necessary; ideally once we get through recruitment (which looking for 12 more characters is a LARGE recruitment to fill), we should split off into what for most will feel like three separate games (until whatever point you cross paths and insanity ensues).
Fair enough.
Recruitment For Characters is up here!
Question Oxnard: building Kings, same rules as the other characters? (Some choices already been made of course)
Yes- same character creation rules.
Agreed that Discord would be a good forum for this. I've moved as many of my games as I can to Discord. The simple fact that you can get notifications to your phone when people post in a certain channel makes it easier for fast gameplay.
Yeah- I understand the draw of Discord, but I'm so invested in so many games on here and really prefer keeping them all on the same platform. I have a method to updating them all. (Also, Discord doesn't work on at least one of the networks/computers where I update from regularly.)
Also going to chime in that Discord didn't work great for me when I tried a PbP from here on that platform. I'm sure it would get easier with use, but I had a hard time finding where the chat left off if there's been a lot of activity since I last checked in.
Also, a big draw of PbP is posting when it fits my schedule (busy job; busy family life), so the updates whenever somebody else posted isn't a draw for me. I'll check in when I check in.
Also also, Discord is blocked from my work's network, so I'd have to do everything related to it over my phone, which isn't ideal.
