Re: OOC Comments
One thing I will use this thread for is taking polls. To date, I have had it entirely secret who is a PC or NPC for various reasons: mystery, suspense, betrayal and keeping you on your toes, among others. This has seemed to work well and has created real suspense and mystery.
Yet I am aware that some people prefer to know who the players are in a more social manner than simply through their characters and thus would like to communicate with them OOC. There are three options for you to think about:
(1) keep it as is (secret, with all OOC through private messages to the DM)
(2) open identities (but then it would lack the mystery and pure roleplaying that it has been to date) OR
(3) have players join the game as an OOC personality to socialize but keep restrictions from revealing which character they play.
I actually do not remember anyone ever complaining about the method as it is, but I have never had any feedback about it either. Please let me know what you think on this issue. POST AS A PRIVATE MESSAGE TO ME ONLY PLEASE.
