So, I wondered about what players think about building into this game an easy way to advance. My thought is everytime a thread is completed each character gains one XP. When you get 3xp you advance a level. It would be very accelerated advancement, but I think applicable to the slow pace of pbp.
What do you all think?
I'm doing something similar with my Skyrealms of Jorune game, though we're still in the first few days of play and haven't got that far yet. So I think it's a good idea from a metagame standpoint. In both cases, it really depends on how fast the GM decides to complete a thread.
I'm all for trying it, anyway, and see how fast it goes.
