Guest | :ggani: Mikititan I think u should add a second dm. 1 reason is becuase every time i dm a game they leave because it takes to long to make a quest evan if it is small. 2 because all my friends think it would be better to have 2 one could act evil or good maybe evan nuetral. Or evan be makeing a small quest while the other makes a bigger quest for when they are done with the other. so it is a continues game instead of waiting 10-30 minutes after each quest for another.:ggani: |

The only reason i would add a 2nd DM would be to help the DM so while he's creating the main quest, the other DM creates another quest to keep players idle so they have not to wait 30 mins.... then...NO. :bangH: That's why I created the DMH (Dungeon Master Helper), to help the DM so players will never wait for him. A 2nd DM slot will be the total chaos. Before, in a primitive stage, I had 4 DM slots but that was totally a chaos because they had full control over the map and stories could not be completed or followed and there was no order. In a role game, there must be only ONE director, the Dungeon Master, and he must be the only one who controls the plot. I can understand that when I released the first version, it was very hard to create a plot and keep the players idle at a same time, so that's why then, I released the v.103. with usefull features like the DMH, which you can program to act like a 2nd DM, but YOU program it. No other "organic" DM must control the flow of the game. :mtk: |

yeah, i think its a bad idea to add another DM, because it would be chaos, when you're making a cutscene the other DM maybe dont know that the first one is doing it and does somthing else and then its ruined, you would have to play it long way before |

I still think the semi-dm would be a good idea to help players. No offense, but the DMH system just doesn't really do good enough of a job on battle.net. You really should try playing a game with it miki with other random people. |
