Every once in a while a get an idea to do something similar to Twitch plays Pokemon. Where I set up an RPG or story thing to run on polls and/or suggestion threads.

Would likely set it up in its own community because it would be obtrusive elsewhere.

But basically run the polls and fill in the fiction based on poll results before introducing the next poll.

Current thoughts is to do this with The Fellowship where I am the Overlord and the polls play the characters.

Not sure it would be popular enough to work though. Ideally you could get a fair number of votes in a day but if not it would just stall.

Oh well. Random thoughts.

  3. Therein lies the rub. I figure for things like open ended solutions if go with asking a question and getting one or two sentence responses with the response with most likes being the winning response.

    For things with set limited options run a poll.

  5. Definitely doable. /tg/ does this kind of thing all the time (or they did back when I used to browse the board); they call them quest threads, as I recall. It’s basically like MS Paint Adventures was before Homestuck made that site too popular for user suggestions to really be feasible anymore. Cool concept, and it doesn’t take all that many interested people to keep up the momentum. I say go for it!
