Re: Collaborative Worldbuilding Threads
If there's no worldbuilding thread in a week or so, I think I'll try throwing an "Infinite Rebuild" question game thread (Infinite Worlds, cutting out all but the Conveyors and Projectors, and a Homeline diverging later than 1990 and currently no later than 2030). All bets off on everything else. I might go for just a hard 100 character limit on the answers, instead of sentence limits.

BTW, this is 100 characters. Your first sentence wouldn't fit in that (well, beyond the bracket). 01234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789 01234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789 If there's no worldbuilding thread in a week or so, I think I'll try throwing an "Infinite Rebuild" question game thread (Infinite Worlds, cutting out all but the Conveyors and Projectors, and a Homeline diverging later than 1990 and currently no later than 2030).

Re: Collaborative Worldbuilding Threads
Probably needs to be wider than 100 characters. The odd nature of the dice can irk me, six sentences hardly feels like a limitation, while 1 sentence feels overly tight, especially when people gamble on a 3-4. Maybe middle 1 of 3d6 is better compromise (<8% chance of six), or maybe lowest 2 of 3d6 (1/216 chance of 6).

Re: Collaborative Worldbuilding Threads
Really? My editor seems to be 62 characters across, for the posting editor.
ETA: And then 112 characters for the edit post editor.

Re: Collaborative Worldbuilding Threads
what's wrong with a fixed word count?
As for post apocalyptic setting, I've been playing a lot of both Fallout 4 and Fallout 76 and yes I know the basics of the history,so it caused a smile on my face when the in game hacking mingame had GURPS as a choice.
