Should there be a sub-forum for Storytelling games?
« on: February 29, 2016, 11:06:13 am »

I just want to see people's opinion of this. Do you think there should be made a sub-forum exclusively for storytelling games?

How would you define what goes there?

Can it have a bit of stats in it or only words. I don't know. Thoughts?

You could use it for dice less Storytelling games. I think that's a good idea.

Storytelling games are games where an author makes a story based on the community's suggestions. They often have images associated with them. The littlest cheesemaker is probably the most well known.

I'd say it's unnecessary. Suggestion Games already have their own subforum.

The forum that the majority of suggestion  games are in is literally a subforum. It would make more sense to make a subforum for group rp's cause those are fewer in number and even then it's pretty iffy as to if it's needed.

So there's SG's, group RPG's, community RP and... "Minigames".

I say if any should be turfed into a sub forum it should be the "rates" and "counts", not that I'm biased.

Yeah, he's a banned spammer. Normally we'd delete this thread too, but people were having too much fun with it by the time we got here.

I agree with Tack. Toss those into their own area so they don't clutter.
