I don’t like that it’s us that decide wether to find or not the land in question. I like the idea of two alternating game phases (navigation and land).
But maybe finding land should be the end of the Dynasty…

MMMh. I can’t see bateleur’s vote on BNscript. Thoughts?

It should be fixed now. The firefox plugin is case-sensitive; it didn’t recognize bateleur’s name from the player list, as it was listed with a capital ‘B’ there. I changed his name on the player list to match his username.

Yep. Thanks.

I echo HKoD’s reservations about choosing to find land. I was thinking something along the lines of Random events using the dice throws to determine what happens.

I don’t see a purpose for this mechanic, other than to end the game, as HKOD said.

I was fairly explicit about the purpose in the comment section, I thought?

Seems okay as a starting point. Finding our way home does seem like an obvious goal for the game, but stopping off at a few inhospitable ports of call along the way would also work.

per Kevan. Lan also may be a desterted island. Howwever the game mechanics still need some word, otherwise it is to easy to drive survivors insane by voting them down. IMHO also the other survivors looking out should be involved.

@Blacky - Driving other Survivors insane by that method does indeed seem possible, but since we perhaps don’t want to reach an Island quite yet that may be a good thing. (Also, as an aside, I note that it has not yet been established that being Insane is bad per-se!)
