What have you appreciated seeing so far, so that we can do more of it?

What have you liked less, so we can avoid it?

How can we help *you* have fun, too?

1. The sheer volume and quality of player interaction with each other. Y'all are doing a bang up job of roleplaying, keep on doing it!

2. Timeslot infractions. One thread per time slot per location with very few exceptions (Inn, for example, it's ok to have different threads in your room, the baths, the dining hall, the stables, etc.)

3. Keep communicating with the GM. If you have a question about something, ask it. If you see something that doesn't look right, either because GM goofed up or player did, let me know. See something that looks rumor worthy? Why not put in the memorable moments thread? Communication is key.

Just to make sure: We start the game with Strife = 0, Fatigue = 0, but Void = Half our Void ring rounded up (as per page 36 of the core book)?

Once per timeslot you may pursue your passion, recovering 3 strife. You may not recover strife this way in a timeslot you are competing in an event, nor in a timeslot you are pushing your agenda.
Do we just fluff describe something related to our Passion, or is there a roll to make? If so, what is the TN, and what happens if we fail and/or acquire more strife from said roll?

Fluff related to your passion is sufficient. Otherwise you'd really struggle to ever get back down below half strife :)

Most Memorable question.

Are we voting for best exchange or single best player?

For instance, the reactions to my motormouth have left me chuckling a lot. I’d love to vote for them (as of now). In best exchange, I’d assume I couldn’t because I’d be voting for myself. Best player, I assume I could.

Obviously no time pressure on this since it’s gonna be a looooong time till we vote on that.

Starting day 5, Shichi charm with braided ribbon, yellows, greens, and a red
Starting day 6, LE has weirdly mottled hands, all colored in browns and yellows, as if her skin had changed color. (fading D10, gone d13)
Starting day 9, LA, has ink stains on fingers. (gone d11)
Starting D13, new bracelet
Honor is the ideal. Unremarkable Retainer. Average Samurai
