But think of this as a sloppy generative thing that can be abandoned as soon as it serves its purpose.<br /><br />The hockey game could spark an idea-- what would offsides mean in a guild war scenario-- or you could just use the team positions to help generate a bunch of the personalities involved in the intrigue to come.Telecanterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07238356788092725244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6446461178381374626.post-29515470284263633682010-12-21T14:02:54.929-08:002010-12-21T14:02:54.929-08:00Relationship wise, there are issues; in baseball, ...Relationship wise, there are issues; in baseball, the relationships are more often one way, not two way.
