New Game Mechanic!
Hello hello, happy Victis Honor weekend. Brainstorming with Mercy and Caroline yesterday, I came up with a new game mechanic I'd like to implement. If you've read this post you might have an inkling of what it is, but to sum up:
- Dominic and Seamus have made a new Battlescars journal. It will be out at all future meetings for anyone to read or write in. - So far it contains the written submissions Seamus has collected for Victis Honor day (at time of writing that's 2 NPC entries and one from Tristan, but feel free to go add more to that post!). - Battlescars members who have personal journals will also be able to sign a (more permanent) confidentiality agreement that gives them access to the Battlescars journal through their own journal (kind of like an IJ community). - Anyone who does this will then be able to post to the Battlescars journal anonymously or otherwise, and other members will be able to comment - also anonymously or otherwise.
In practical game terms, what that means is this:
- You may now post (anonymous or not) entries which will only be seen by other Battlescars members. Please title these with 'Battlescars Journal: Anonymous' or 'Battlescars Journal: CharacterName'. - These entries will count for activity, so please tag them with your character's journal tag even if they're anonymous. Please also tag them with the new 'journal: battlescars' tag. - I would prefer if characters commenting do so logged in, rather than on IJ's anonymous setting, just so I can be sure all comments are from current members. If they are commenting 'anonymously' just say so in the journal title.
I hope that all makes sense! If not, question away and I'll try to explain better.
