34 people thought we should go check in with them. It won't be a waste of time, per se, but it's already been mentioned that they're stuck there for the month. Oh well.FunkyEntropy said:
Starting a new thread, please don't post in it until I give the go-ahead here.

In updating the Omake section, it appears that I DIDN'T forget to award that BOLO Omake the first time, and thus awarded XP to it twice. Hrm.Gromweld said:

Could we institute, like, I dunno, a "you must participate in quest discussion in order to have your vote count" policy? It doesn't have to be a lot of discussion to qualify, just a bare minimum to weed out the mindless horde?Gromweld said:

Unless players kept track of it for him. I think there are enough people here with the necessary motivation to insure that we'll pull it off. Lot of folk here sick and tired of worrying about idiots screwing us over.DragonBard said:

I do not feel comfortable actively discouraging quest participation. I'm going to be trying a new idea for how to streamline voting with the 6.7 vote, however, so we'll see how it goes then.FunkyEntropy said:

The other solution is weighted voting. Some options would simply be worth more (or less) votes, depending on how in-character the option was (or how much the QM liked it).
Best example I can think of at the moment is Panopticon Quest. Worked out pretty well so far, all though we did have a near miss with people almost voting for an option that would have resulted in a couple of party deaths absent an appropriate stunt (which never appeared).

You're correct, but they can also die when a bad vote at a critical time manages to get through and ruins it for everyone.uju32 said:
