  1. @tdtwix Well, I can see how it would work. Continuity is a wonderful thing when handled well. But I can't wrap my head around how a situation requiring a persistent group to progress in plot can work if something happened that caused one of the members to go missing for a while in person. Do they just hand control off to another person for the duration? Are they just not there? Also, a large part of how I start a scenario involves disregarding placement until after someone states one to be relevant, and then going there. Whereas jumping in on some of the more plot-focused ones seems weird if there's no reasonable way my character would be there at all. Wow, I need to work on being more concise. XD

    1. @retl Well, I understand. I love to RP, but if there's a set plot, it doesn't work. I agree, if an RP depends on something to happen, then if somepony goes missing for a bit, the plot fails. The only RPs that work are the ones without any set things. You choose a character, follow rules, but the story leads itself. That's the best kind since the plot's focused on the ones driving it. You can't make something happen without a script, and then it's not an RP or fun.
