Let's Play TES!

[Wedge]

Okay.

I'm editing my post to reflect the race poll.

[Ad Bot]

[Marcem]

Argonian won

[Marcem]

Names are up!

[Ghoul]

Snot would be the best representation of the Blockland Community's own character. :D

[Digmaster]

And I bet snot will win :D

A sneaky Argonian named snot. Couldn't have asked for more :D

[Marcem]

Ok, so at this point, I'm thinking Snot won.
I'll leave it running until 4:00.

[Fizzles]

SNAWT

[Marcem]

Oh, by the way, say if you're playing or not.

Playing! How are we going to govern turn length? A day or two? Or by quests? Also we need a vote on what guilds to join (it is easier if you only chose one to begin with because they all dislike each other so if you are in all of them initial advancement is more difficult).

Yes.

It would be nice if you could start today so I'd have Sunday to play, otherwise move my spot to next weekend so Digmaster is second.

I think people should just be able to join whatever guilds they want on their turn, I don't think it's a huge issue. You only lose like 2 disposition points at the most (although multiple factions do compound with certain people) but it's nothing 100gp can't fix if you actually need to talk to a person.

As for the great house, we probably should vote on it because joining one means you can't join any of the others.

[Marcem]

Yeah, I'm starting it today, at 4:00.

Two in-game days.

[Wedge]

Two in game days is surprisingly short. Take one silt-strider ride and your turn is over.

[Marcem]

Hmm, then how many? A week?(Seven days)

[Wedge]

According to my brother one week is roughly 8 hours of game play (if you don't sleep or ride anywhere), and suggested that you give people 8 real hours to play and 24 hours to hold onto the save. They end at whichever comes sooner, playing for 8 hours or having held the save for a day. Or getting bored.

In my opinion, you should just tell people they have to keep some kind of journal of their adventure (lots of screenshots and a caption for each). That would make them play a bit slower.

But I really think 3-4 hours is probably more reasonable. 3 people playing 8 hours could probably finish the game, haha.
