[quote=@Assallya] I didn't say we would be rolling dice. I meant that the characters might be aware they are in a game. After all, the term GM was used so I took it to imply this was based off a role playing game. It's not a game without dice or some other means of random determination. [/quote] The usage of the term GM doesn't automatically mean the involvement of traditional game mechanics. This is a predominantly freeform website, so naturally it is more likely that there will not be a game system in place. Especially when the word is already widely used here in reference to the more freeform style of thread management and plot construction. Not saying you're wrong, though. The OP not mentioning anything about mechanics doesn't automatically mean that they're not in place. I just think that your logic isn't really absolute. One of us is looking stupid here. This didn't have to happen.
