I think what you are saying here regarding continuity in the story, using both fantasy and fact based quests, and judging each round before moving on are all really good ideas. Would limiting the word count on rounds help out with the judging? Like 1000 word max or something reasonable to read in like 5 minutes or something? I know that I tend to be long winded in many of my post lol. I'm sure that can make it challenging for judges, especially if there are a lot of players.
Regarding the images. Other then the IFC spaceship (which is credited) all of the images are from Pixabay. I posted from my phone and for whatever reason the links weren't working. They kept screwing up formatting of the post as well so I put a footer at the end of the post stating that "all images are from Pixabay."

Glad to know you think those are good ideas!
Yes. And I didn't want to put word limits on entries, BUT... That may end up being a route we should consider.
Good to know in regards to the images you used, I didn't see the footer at the end where you mentioned all images were from Pixabay for some reason, oops!
Another thing about all this is you mentioned @lordless.exile and his efforts with Manaia and I've been talking with him about working together and perhaps having our IFC world inhabit his world of Manaia, so maybe next season we can have our people land their and start our own colony/community and delve much more deeper in that aspect in regards to the storyline and we can sort of create a new main city and work on history and language and develop a storyline that has the visual artwork of his attached to it. I think that could be pretty cool!
I'd love to make this feel more and more like an RPG and having a world like his to work within would be pretty neat I think. And through doing that maybe we can each help each other to give life to each others virtual worlds and projects.
