Apologies for the delay, folks, but my post's up now. Sorry for not really cutting Rose in, but in-scene, Rez has business to take care of outside the walls.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=199515.msg9962781#msg9962781">Quote from: Cold Heritage on 09-05-2014, 23:59:17</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">I think I would probably go the route of having things go sour when the MC post comes in - if possible, let the original roller's post stand, and have the narrative flow go something like: "things were going [as per contents of original roller's post], but then [interference happening], and it all went to heck. Then [MC moves here]." Specific situations might need some editing, but that is how I would go for it.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>This is probably the best way to go with it. At times it's useful for the original poster to remain cognizant of their own roll vs. that of who<em>might</em>interfere. For instance, a marginal success that another player might mess with and turn into a total failure, well...Best to treat it as pretty darned marginal. On the other hand, Rez's last roll, as stated, was so damned high that even if everyone present decided to interfere it still wasn't going to matter in the end. Well, at least to the outcome of the roll!<br/><br/>AW is a tricky system for forum play. It encourages people to take charge of their characters AND the world AND the situation, which latter two are things most people assume are fully in the GM's purview in most games. But it also permits interference, and ANY "interrupt-driven" RPG rules are troublesome when you put them on forums. I think Cold's answer is the best we'll get, though...Work out some way through which someone interfering can "snatch (your) defeat from the jaws of victory" and rewrite the outcome appropriately.
