[spoon-discuss] the wheels of justice grind so slowly... |
The justice system is entirely too slow. It took me about 45 minutes to figure out how to 'unroll' Orc's Speeder movement and Grid actions to reset them to a pre-CFI state, and I'm probably still wrong. I've tried a couple different times to find a clear, unambiguous wording for the idea I'm tossing around (below) but can't get it. I want to add to CFIs a clause that permits (requires?) players to specify a preferred remedy -- one or more changes to the gamestate that take effect upon a CFI being ruled True. Basically, legal Post-It Notes (TM). You can add to a CFI comments to the effect of 'this is the illegal move, this is what this part of the game state should be afterwards'. I just don't know how to word it. (Actually I do, but my "Wild West Justice" prop from a long time ago failed miserably. People just don't seem to like the 'benevolent dictator' concept. Sigh.) ...dave -- David Smith dave@[technopagan.org|bureau42.com|whatisay.com|mvn.net] This signature contains 35% or more post-consumer recycled electrons. _______________________________________________ spoon-discuss mailing list spoon-discuss@xxxxxxxxx http://lists.ellipsis.cx/mailman/listinfo/spoon-discuss
