Feedback and Input, Round 3

[bravenewmods]

Hey guys! Now that we've wrapped up another major event, we'd like to get another round of input from you guys!

Event Feedback
We'd like to ask for comments or concerns about this event! We recognize that it ran quite long this time, and we seem to have overcompensated for last event's issue about the pacing being too quick; we apologize! We'll work on our pacing in the future. We'd like to hear your thoughts about this as well - Was there anything you liked or disliked in particular? Anything you thought could have used some work?

Looking Forward
We're open to other event suggestions! We won't always be doing major plot intensive events, so feel free to suggest events of a more light-hearted nature! Of course, if you have any thoughts about where you'd like to see the plot go, you're welcome to leave them here as well! We're a little more than six months into the game now, and we're excited to continue to show more of this world to you guys!

Miscellaneous
Anything else you'd like to see in the game? Activities smaller than an event in nature like contests or performances? Or is there anything about the game you find disorganized or frustrating? Feel free to comment upon and suggest anything else here!

This post will be open to anonymous comments. However, we cannot screen the post as anon would then not be able to see our responses to them.

Event Feedback - I think the pacing for this event was fine, because it takes a while to actually log things out when you're tagging in groups. I liked the event overall. Not really much to add here.

Looking Forward - Maybe a small gang of thieves can stir up trouble in Union. They're competent, but more of an annoyance than a serious problem largely because they're not stealing anything incredibly valuable or important. They're stealing things more to prove that they can rather than to cause any harm.

Miscellaneous - I'd like to see a plot calendar. Even if the dates have a little wiggle room, knowing approximately when to expect an event to happen in the month would help for planning out posts.

Thanks for the feedback and the suggestions!

The plot calendar is actually something we've had hovering in the back of our heads for a while. We're going to work on this; it might not pop up immediately, but it's definitely on the backburner.

Event Feedback - I think the pacing itself was fine, but maybe don't leave the endings quite so open-ended? Since it seemed like a lot of people just stopped posting because we didn't know how the event was going to end, even though it would be over ICly and we were just waiting for the threads to wrap up.

For future suggestions? Uh, maybe now that we've got more cities allied with Union and stuff, they decide to hold a big event to commemorate and to cement ties? Like a festival, something like that.

Also, seconding an event calendar post, that'd be nice.

As noted above, the plot calendar is something we're going to work on. In regards to the open-ended events, we prefer to leave players the possibility of changing our script if they want; in this case, unfortunately, no one had actually progressed with the final section yet. This will probably be a combination of making sure players get to event end a little quicker and narrowing things a little on our end.
