--20cf300fb4f11279030492cdb381 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 You may well do, Ian, but I will not put up with this suggestion even in the slightest, and in fact am offended by it. If there is even a hint that Andrew's idea is acceptable, I will stop DMing DQ games and take down every page I have contributed to the game. I may be the only one that does it, but I would not be shocked to find that I had company on this. On 17 October 2010 23:37, Ian Wood <dawnhaven@xtra.co.nz> wrote: > Please be civil.

Useful if games are on-world. Courtier / spy etc info irrelevant for most o=
ff-world games.
=C2=A0
Speaking of which, while GMs are welcome to run games on or off-world, part=
of our campaign revolves around a shared world. Perhaps the GM ep bribe co=

hared spaces, which means most but not all on-world games, and few off-worl=

For the guild meeting we could:
=C2=A0
I would like to have a meeting of all the adventuring skills and give ppl s=
ome things to do. We could break off into rangers, spys, coutiers warriors =
etc.
A meeting of all the spys could contain info on the difference provences an=
d some requests for info. We could appt someone guild master whose job it i=
s the=C2=A0liaise=C2=A0with GMs to find out what is going on in the world. =
GMs could put info requests in relating to their=C2=A0campaigns.I reckon we=
could have 2 professions scheduled to meet each guild meeting and ppl coul=
d choose to go to them or not based on the character they were playing next=
session.
=C2=A0
For example we could have a coutier meeting with desriptions of social stan=
ding of the ppl in Cazala and the=C2=A0courtiers=C2=A0could be directed to =
find further info on aspects of our social landscape.
Ppl could write summaries of their finding for the wiki or for their guild =
meetings.=C2=A0
=C2=A0
What do you think?
