Thread:Talk:Little Talks of Paradox/Prompts versus world-building

Heya folks. This is in response to the various threads happening around the cites of Velia. This is not a world-building game by consensus. You should totally do that in this wiki! But this isn't it. I am running the game, and I have a space in mind that it takes place.

I didn't want to discourage folks from creating stuff, but it is getting out of hand, and I feel like you are missing the story I am creating for you, before we even start. Here are some guidelines, to help play this game in the wiki, where the tools encourage being bold:


 * If you want to create something, make a new thread and ask me if it fits in the current game.
 * Most of the time you will have space to create things when I, as the storyteller, ask you to fill in details.

Dungeon World has the mechanics in place that will give everyone ample opportunity to world build, but one of our central tenets is: play to find out what happens. So, you know, play! Focus on in-character knowledge.

Now excuse me while I go uncharacteristically shut down conversations. ^_^
