Yeah

Cause no one wanted to kill anyone else and we needed to end it  

But we already decided that won’t happen this time

maybe for the next one there could be an obvious time limit in place due to some in world reason that might encourage the game to be much tigheter in length.

No Eddie it's not your fault!! You deserve a break after everything you did for the last one.

I genuinely think our main problem with this one is the map, it's huge so characters never run into each other, and having some characters on the water (mine) means that we can't really have a 'fight scene' if we do run into each other. The islands idea was fun, but I think it could use a lot of tweaks.

Next time we should think about having a smaller map, and specific locations that characters can gather at (the casino worked great for that in Cosmere)

I agree with all these points. The archipelago was a cool idea, but didn’t work in execution. Oh well, hindsight’s 20/20

GUYS

I THINK THE GREENSPINE SHOULD BE ABLE TO WIN

HORRIFIC FUSION DEATH MONSTERS COUNT TOO.

Especially if they have traumatic hallucinations of my character.

Alright I've been trying to figure out what's going on in this subforum. How does this work? As I understand it, it is currently the Drominad Hunger Games. 

Is everything on the forum? If so, that would mean everyone knows where everyone else is at any given time.

Apologies if there's something I missed.

Are you familiar with the concept of metagaming in a game such as D&D? Effectively, it uses the honor system to not have your characters know things that you do - just as responding to attacks with plausible injuries is honor system.

So you're meant to pretend you don't know what's going on?

Yeah, pretty much. The GMs will, if needed, enforce it - usually they don’t have too, since the goal is less to win the games and more to have fun playing a character trying to win the games. If people were willing to cheat through out-of-game knowledge, they could also cheat by simply refusing to die.

Dragonheir explained it pretty well!

I'm one of the primary GMs, so I help run the games, but if you have any questions more info can be found on the intro page here:
