Game Discussion
Dearest marinanites.

As some of you might've noticed, the pace of Marina Nova has changed over the past year or so. We've gotten smaller and slower. Our newbiedays aren't the parade of fresh faces as it used to be and our mistletoe mingles no longer break the comment limit. In addition to this, both of your mods went and got themselves busier offline lives which, to be quite honest, is terribly rude but probably also inevitable.

Because of these changes, we thought it was time to sit you down and have a chat.

We would like to hear your thoughts on the game. Where you'd like to see it go and what changes you want to see. What would make it easier for you to be more active? What would make it smoother for new people to come in? Marina has always been built on player participation — how can we make this more accessible to you? Do you want to keep the game the way it is, or is it time to downsize it?

We're eager to hear your thoughts and have an honest, open discussion about the future of the game. One thing is certain — this isn't ending, only changing.

Hopefully my thoughts come out pretty clearly...

I actually don't have a huge issue with this game. In fact, it is by far my favorite out of all my games. I feel like there's a decent balance between plot and non-plot - meaning stuff happens in between the plots.

Something about this game works for me. People tag pretty decently... I don't feel like I can't move forward because I'm waiting on threads or anything. In fact, all issues I have with the game are completely personal issues of my tagging/plotting mojo being unpredictable.

I don't know how helpful this is as basically I'm saying I really like the game the way it is.

Wanted to add... since I don't know if I made it clear enough, the ability to have slice-of-life, and the fact that peopel here are amenable to it, is a huge selling point for me. I honestly despise meta plots which might be part of why my RP left for a while? Aside from being pregnant, all my games went super meta at the same time and people legitimately stopped doing anything slice-of-lifey. And my problem with meta plotting is at least one of my characters would be SUPER involved with meta plots, but I don't have the time or the desire to get involved in that. And I hate playing my people OOC.

This game is the closest to slice-of-life I have, and that's where I tend to excel. So yes, please keep that if possible.
