Proposal: Don’t End Just Yet!! Please

Timed out, 1-2. Failed by JonathanDark.

In the rule The End replace “While there is an Open Judging and The Last Fragment is empty, as a Story Action any Storyteller may call for a Ending Drawing by making a Story blog post where the title contains the phrase “Ending Drawing”. When this post has been made, the next Drawing is considered the Ending Drawing” with “While there is an Open Judging and The Last Fragment is empty, as a Story Action any Storyteller may call for a Ending Drawing by making a Story Post Votable Matter where the title contains the phrase “Ending Drawing”. If a quorum of Storytellers votes in favor of this post the next Drawing is considered the Ending Drawing”

Make the Ending Drawing just a Drawing and cancel all of the pending Creative Writings.

Give 20 Points to Clucky and give 20 Points to Darknight.

I would like to propose a rule change and do a little bit of a back track to the story.

GloopyGhost has invoked a rule and then disappeared. The rule takes us out of the story at hand and is forcing an ending. This story has barely gotten going and no real action or intentions of the characters has been developed. There is nothing of consequence to any of the few antagonists that have been introduced.

I would like to propose that we take away this segment and forced ending writing. It’s too soon and it feels like this action is being used as a way to end the game.

If anyone has presented pieces of writing for this, maybe they can be compensated for their efforts with points.

Also, I propose that the next time an ending is proposed, we amend it to require a group vote of agreement to an ending before it’s set in motion.

If you don’t want the story to end, you don’t have to vote for the wrap up. If it goes voted down, I believe the ending fragment just stays in limbo and then another round starts that can continue to the story.

Personally this dynasty has already been going on for 6+ weeks. And the current pace is slow enough that it isn’t being very fun for me.

So really it’ll come down to how Darknight and dfj feel

against I understand the reason for this and if timing wasn’t still an issue I’d be for going on but as clucky mentioned, this dynasty has been going on for a while and if players are starting to not have fun I’d rather move on to the next then drag this out and potentially cause him to idle
