First Pass for Players

Step 4: First Pass

Group decisions are now over. For the rest of the game, each player makes decisions individually and has vast power to shape history. Each player now gets to add more detail to the history, creating either a new Period or Event. Players can go in any order they want.

To add a Period, place it between any two adjacent Periods, then give a short description of what happens during that time. Say if the Tone is Light or Dark.

An Event is a specifc thing that happens inside a Period, like a prince seizing the throne or a colony ship arriving on a new world. To add a new Event, decide what Period the Event is in. If there are already other Events in that Period, place it before or after one of them. An Event must be inside an existing Period. Tell the other players what happens during the Event. Say if the Tone is Light or Dark.


No order on this one, just post something over the course of the next week. I'm guessing very few of you have access to the Google Doc - so I'll add a link here and you can request it.

If people hate the Google Doc idea, we'll do screen shots or something.

Global News Ends

Global News Organizations cling to unreliable web networks and dwindling big corp bottom lines. A grassroots revolution of local news reigns over the airwaves -online, tv, and radio- and while information about world-reaching events becomes secondhand accounts, localized news becomes ironclad. Trust in your local journalist returns, albeit reluctantly.

Signs of Something Different

Right Twice a Day

The more perceptive members of the Browsy Weird Stuff community notice government interference with their community, driving them into cryptographic hiding as the Broken Watches. This international group trawls the internet for reports of unusual things before they get scrubbed. It's mostly nonsense, but twice a day...
