Revision as of 12:55, 16 September 2005

This page is for discussing Round 3 of Ghyll, currently scheduled to begin January 2006.

Should there be a Round 3?

Are you interested? Would you play? What (rules, date, style, etc.) should change? What makes you unhappy with the current state of play? I've had every intent to keep the Ghyll Lexicon going as long as there are players (and perhaps longer) - in the absence of them, I'd probably move on to other (slower, less regular) products such as a Ghyll game deadtree book ("Poor Ghyllians Almanac" is the most popular choice at the moment, though that, honestly, is years away). Some folks have been debating privately whether to stop playing, and their dissatisfaction partly comes from the quality of phantoms being produced (and thus, needing to be written). What sort of phantoms and entries do you prefer to write? --Morbus Iff 09:08, 16 Sep 2005 (EDT)

I'm interested, and I have two proposals:

  • 1) Remove the phantoming rules. To wit: a) one should be able to cite three of any entries in one's citations, not necessarily two phantoms and one filled-in entry as is the case now, b) one should be able to write any entry under the particular turn letter, not necessarily filling in all the phantoms before creating new ones.
  • 2) Ban creating entries, even of currently phantomed entries, that are either people, groups, or places. We have way too many of those types of entries already, and banning them would force people to be more creative.

So really there are three separate proposals to vote on there, 1) a), 1) b), and 2).
