TOPIC: Web Token Feedback Needed!

Cool.  Thanks <br /><br />Jennifer

<br />Will there be a computer available in the player coach area for players to look up their rumor/lore tokens? How much time will this take up from the indoctrination/training time? Does anyone else feel that the presence of a computer in the training area may kill the ambiance of True Dungeon?<br /><br />An alternative might be to have a "sage" set up... who can look up the codes on a cheat sheet and tell the players the rumor or show them the lore item/picture in a more roleplay friendly way.<br /><br />How the Web tokens will work at the event are not final yet.  Probably the only way to use them is to go into the Tavern/Courtyard BEFORE your event and redeem them at an NPC who will look at the name on them and tell you the corresponding rumor.  More info later.  <br />[/quote]<br /><br />I'm not a avid player or token collecter but having an NPC play the rumor at GenCon, while very cool and adds more ambience, might be inconsistant - not intentionally but, through role play and the natural tendancy to add to the story for dramatic affect may be a problem.

oh - I was hoping training time is just that...rumors/lore is done in the tavern or prior to checking in for the 24 min of training...

I say caveat emptor.

I would suggest that having a wireless router or something that would allow an internet connection might be better than a computer set up for the public. I suspect many people could bring laptops and work on their own or with their group if they had local interent access. As long as you provide a signal, secured or not, everyone with a mobile computer nearby could use it at the same time.<br /><br />Any color for token backings works for me. <br /><br /><br />

I like the idea of having to turn them in for the clue at GENCON.  As long as someone had a sheet with all 80 clues, there wouldn't be any inconsistency.  That's probably the only way to do it - few people will be able to memorize 80 different clues verbatim, and remember which went with each token. 

Coaches with a list of 80 clues...hmmm<br /><br />Might save time to say any Rumor Token turned in gets X  and any lore token turns in gets Y.  Might limit the number turned in at con, which would not be a bad thing since the true goal was to get folks to look online in the off-season.  <br /><br />If there is a way for the Coaches not to mess with them...I am all for that.  The first 12 is busy enough with doing Saves, and all the new Damage reduction stuff I think we might be facing.

I agree with Gary. the 12 minutes is limited as is.

Now if they bring in a person per shift to do nothing but Rumors and things like the amulet of wonder, and help keep tables set-up...that will work just fine.    =D

Coaches may have nothing to do with the AoW this year!

Sweet..I am hoping for a different thing for each room

<br />Coaches may have nothing to do with the AoW this year!<br />

<br /><br />And then again they may...you only think tracking down a little wooden die sounds easy...then you have to do it a dozen times a shift.  I tell ya the thing had legs of it's own!
