Ideas thread

I see your point. I am not sure I see the point, but yours is well made.
No, but they can spend the time needed to plan and set up the big reveal, and go back and edit things to make it work before releasing the polished artifact to be read. We generally don't have the luxury.

No harm if it does not work. We don't have to use it. (I don't actually believe that, but am trying to be supportive.)

Yes, I got that
Agreed

This is a mockup of what I meant...





...but it sounds like this one fell on stony ground.

For the record. Of course it was old man Withers. Who else?

Meh, I get the reasoning but it feels weird to me. Not a fan

The options for hiding rolls include the option to hide the Reason for the roll while showing the roll itself? Would be a fun way to add some adrenalin for players from discord

Get the post link url when on mobile now the title's missing.

Clicking the thread name in a thread list goes to the first page. I think most people agree that it shouldn't.

Move 'Custom' character sheets type to the top of the list (new character and add to game) instead of the bottom.

With all the special features it is getting it is probably the most commonly created sheet these days.

It's always been more sensible to have it at the top than the bottom. I'm pretty sure more people have always used Custom than 13A (not that 13A sees no play).
I think that was actually my first suggestion for change, long ago before the era of Adam, but I forgot about it.

So, approved 😄

I completely disagree, and 13th Age should remain the default (sarcasm included at no extra charge).

Moving Custom from the bottom to the top of the list for 'New Character' also moves it in other places like 'New Game'.



Quelle horreur, Right? The most useful system and character sheet type at the top, however will we cope?

Unfortunately, it also puts it at the top of the Systems page and it looks a bit rubbish there (it's currently at the end).



I could remove it from the Systems page, but that'd be like not advertising a big feature of GP.

I think it looks fine at the top of the systems page.

Before people see all the special games, they get told that they don't need to worry if they can't find their personal snowflake since there is a custom option to cover their needs.

Maybe we can add a bit of text saying what it does?

If a custom game champion wants to write it then I'll add it.

Agreed. I never looked at it before but just the "Publisher: You" thing is a bit eh.

I can think about what to write there but I wouldn't stick with the format of the others. It's not the same as them, after all.

Something like: "With enough work these custom sheets can do everything the specialised ones can, and then some."

It is 'work by you' but I don't know it we want to spell that out.

I think you're right. It's different and should look different.

Except this is about custom games, not custom sheets

Doh!

"With enough work our custom character sheets can do everything the ones for specialised games can, and then some."

The game type is sorta all about the character sheet.

Not really. They're separate options and not all supported game types have their own character sheets (Loop and Flood come to mind)

Actually, now that I think about it, the "Systems" selection is kind of an outdated part of the site, now that we have Custom Types.
