I am going to have to agree with Glirdan about the streak of friendship that seems to be abound here. Besides the obvious fact that most of us right now are rather spaced apart, soon, if the map doesn't fail to point out, character interaction is most likely going to increase during the nightly hour period. Since this is in the mirth section of the downs, some form of humour or entertainment is expected to occur. Taking in the obvious and putting it aside for a second, some form of competition between characters would be nice to occur, since this is a race, and not everyone I am sure is going to return to their home in arda on a golden sunset of riches and many happy smiles. That would just defeat the point. While having characters kill off each other, or seriously wound them to where they are defunct from the game and such is quite too far to be taken, slight impediment to their ease of travel does not seem to be pushing the boundaries too much. Nothing on the level of "A gigantic Oliphant is going to crush you, oh nooo!", but on a smaller scale, for example, "It seems sharing a camp wasn't a good idea, most of <character name> food was gladly eaten by <other character>." or another such thing. This doesn't cause any more harm than making the player having to include problem solving skills to get around the problem along in their post, thus leading to something more interesting to read along with their scenario. Sorry if I sound like the King from Alice in Wonderland, I am just making a slight suggestion, if I may. ~ Ka

I'm in favor of sabotaging, obviously, since I just left my character to brood about it, but if we were actually officially able to sabotage other players, I think it would have to be more regulated, or else the early dwarf will get all the blueberries... in a sense.
Naria certainly did problem solve that one, though! And how! ![]() Right, but anyways... I mean...I usually am awake to see every transition, so compared to poor, poor Eomer I have this HUGE opprotunity to constantly do all sorts of things to his character. But knowing that, it just wouldn't be as fun. What if, when there is a pair at night, those involved would have a mod roll a dice/flip a coin... draw virtual straws... something which would define who will be the unfortunate victim, and/or in the case of a larger group, also the conspiritor. Even then... the luck long-straw would have the ability to forgo it entirely. My only concern past that, is it puts even MORE work on the mods in an already labor instensive game.

I really like your idea Valesse!!!! This Mod dicerolling will do just nicely as I can do it when the night begins....
Lets put it to a vote shall we Vote yes if you would like me to roll a die each night phase for players who are at the same rest point, to see who will be the sabotagee and sabotager. Vote no if you don't like the whole idea.

I vote no. I've got something else in mind but I still have a few kinks to work out before I post it.

I vote yes.
With the reservation that there should be something like common agreement about the level of damage that can be inflicted and which are the consequences of them. This sabotage idea shouldn't become too decisive factor in the game (like: I take all the food the other competitor has and so s/he can't move at all the next day because of the search for food etc.).
