This is really valuable information, Sandman. Thank you.
I can definitely get a better sense of the play-by-PM system from these forum posts. The thumbnail system for posting board images is perect. Being strategic and entering into negotiations are difficult when all players don't have a common board from which to work. The GM shows both the maps with arrows (indicating movement that occured when orders were processed) and the post-movement maps of positions at the start of the proceeding season. I think we'd only need to show the latter, as the text readout from jDip essentially covers the former.
I think it's also a good idea to disallow as much in-thread banter as these folks seem to produce. Given the culture of Barbelith, though, I don't think this will be much of a problem. Others who are watching the match may want to comment, and that would be good fun.
(If anyone wanted to write faux news articles, though, I'd love it. Those things are just damned funny.) |
