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.

Well, the one thing this game has going for it that our other one didn't? A whole lot less drama and... personalities. And inflation. The character to player ratio was really off, especially considering the people who consistently didn't tag until the end of the month to make AP. And they often had the most characters.

Also, we were pretty much doomed the moment we split from the original game.

	I do not know how you ladies dealt with all the drama last time around. I seriously do not. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Good point, though I have to admit, I wasn't aware if there was any drama in this game or not since I assumed if there was any it was taking place on Plurk, where I am... not. I think we did pretty well with our game, considering, and I certainly enjoyed it, even with the drama. But life is a hell of a lot easier here! :-) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Oh we did great with our game. I was looking over various threads, and the setting you, me, and Kate worked up was pretty damned awesome with some incredible potential.

I'm not aware of drama in MN either and I am on plurk. From my perspective, it's pretty drama free, people seem to be able to talk together, and the whole game is the most pleasant overall RP experience I've ever had I think.
