I've created the pages. You should be able to edit them now.

I had no trouble beginning. I did have trouble when it came to individual pages for libraries, boons and hooks, and resources. Those pages the creator of the game has to make.

Re: time

In reply to Player 8 (msg # 877):

Yes, currently you set new pages, but you cannot actually create them. In some ways this is good, because I'm making sure a naming convention is used to ensure not messing up other, similarly named pages. Since you can all edit them once created, I'm a little hesitant to unlock that one feature since tight control of that one feature protects everyone's efforts.

Closing in on finishing two nearly 16-hour days of work. My head should be much clearer tomorrow.

Yeah, yesterday marked the end of my "week" of 12 and 16 hour shifts, onto my "off week", where except for tomorrow's 16 hour shift, I have a whole week off. That said, after this off time, I'm moving to a 3pm-11pm monday through friday supervisory position. Hard to do any posting while or after being at work all day like that.

I want to get things running soon while energy is strong. I think I'd like to start on Monday. I figure I'll run all the initial threads, while asking everyone to use especially strong player agency since you already know your site and some of the things you're expecting since you have chosen a location, Boons, and Hooks. Try to have any little changes in companions and magi done by then, and try to be a good way through grogs. Sound good?

How do you feel about real world, historic books on mundane topics, that aren't statted within an Ars supplement, in terms of availability and price? Just curious, not really a big point.

Like, it sort of matters, literacy and good books are the best way to optimize your covenant.

For the moment, I'm not offering the same discount because I don't want to add the issue of trying to figure out appropriate values for a real-world book I probably am completely unfamiliar with. Once the game starts, that will provide more time to figure out such stats, and they can be bought for 1 lb per book.

Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. Going forwards I'm not planning to purchase too many books, but rather trade in kind or otherwise exchange for them - ill write up the ones I want.

Documentation

Should we expect the remaining covenants to be posted on the wiki?

We have the Travelling Covenant, Hedge Integration and the Aerie. The Border covenant is there, but lacking some details. The Redcap and Library covenants don't seem to be there at all.

Finally, I must have missed this, where should we submit our completed character sheets for our magi and companions?

Most skills that we would actually need for covenant stuff, like crafts. Would probably just not have books available at all. They are passed on by apprenticeship and the practitioners tend to not be literate.

Yes, we need to get the rest of them up there. I rather them be a little late than delay starting, though.

Magi and companions, assuming they are already named, Should have a character sheet under character details. On your details page select the character you want to enter then edit character sheet and enter them in.

But how do the various SGs access the information? Wiki pages would work.

Re: Documentation

I thought that covenants were going to have their own pages to put things on? I've been waiting for that to put up the Redcap covenant details.

Re: Documentation

We can all edit the wiki. You can go in and add a page if you want. So long as we all keep the same general format it should be fine.

Yeah, this isn't actually true of the weird RPoL wiki system. It's also going to be pretty painful to enter character sheets into the wiki - it has no block formatting tools.
