Story Post: The Beast Doesn’t Move

Another bellow, from the same location. The Fishing Contestants are unperturbed, having now grown used to these eerie but impotent rumblings. And why shouldn’t they be? After all, no one ever seems to be Affected.

I see the dice rolls in the Dice Roller, but I don’t see any changes on the gamestate page for the Moving the Beast or Sight Disturbances. Did you accidentally click out of editing the page?

Nevermind. Browser caching issue on my end.

Submitted the edit right around the time of your comment, so that could be it too. I didn’t do a separate edit for Move the Beast because nothing changed and the wiki doesn’t allow empty edits. Actually, should I be doing trivial edits like adding or removing a space in order to document completed actions that don’t change the wiki (e.g. this Move the Beast, or Dive for Treasure results that don’t affect the gamestate)?

No, the output of the Dice Roller itself is considered to be gamestate per the Appendix entry:

Gamestate
Any information which the Ruleset regulates the alteration of.

And the rules regulate the alteration of the Dice Roller in the Random Generators section.
