Wanted to thank Staff for the recent Kra'hei Event Friday night. Players on the S'Kra side of things are very happy about the event and I heard back from a few non-S'Kra players who enjoyed it and are looking to be a part of the future of the Kra'hei.
Specific things that were great and appreciated:
1. Using a pirate invasion to keep things fun when the moons went down and we had to sail to Ratha.
2. Unveiling the history of the Kra'hei with some great S'Kra lore and locations.
3. Giving us action based choices to choose how to deal with the Kra'hei leader.
Its going to be fun and interesting to see what the future holds for the Kra'hei!
I just want to jump on the bandwagon of cheering on this new paradigm of choose your own outcome eventing. Huge kudos to the GM wbo initially proposed it, and to the players who are responding to it! We are really excited to do more with this and see what you all decide!
You sense you can DANCE SILLY to demonstrate your desire for more events!
You are certain you could HUG the whirling mass of razor sharp swords, and nothing at all would go wrong.
You're pretty sure the Immortals would be amused if you SPIT on their altar. Yes. Amused.
I would just like to know if it's now possible to spit on an altar and hopefully someone will answer that for me. I personally find it too offensive to test or to ask anyone to do it for me. I am hoping the GM who posted that remark, or perhaps another GM will confirm one way or the other.

The post was made in jest, and was in reference to the new mechanics we have been using during events to allow characters to communicate their choices.
We have not changed any mechanics in game as a result of this new method of event choice selection. All choices in events so far have been presented with benign in game roleplaying verbs purely meant to be a means for communicating with us, the GMs, what the characters would like to do. For example, LEAN FORWARD or POINT UP, to indicate 'choice A' or 'choice B'. Note these choices have been presented with a fair amount of direct instruction/clarification, for example, this was part of the text sent to a player during an event:
"You can redirect the bolt by POINT [OtherPlayer], POINT [AnotherPlayer], or deal with the strike yourself if you LEAN BACK! You must decide quickly!"
All choices have been presented with existing in game roleplaying verbs. There is no implementation of spitting on altars, nor is there mechanical support for it. Sometimes, there are bad choices presented, with potential consequences that would be reasonable for such an action.

I approve.

[Shrine of Ushnish]
In a dark, fetid alley, hard behind the Viper's Nest Inn, you happen upon a small shrine. Kicking away what appears to be rubbish from around it, you reveal a sculpted granite image of the serpent god Ushnish. Seeing that, you realize with a shudder that it is not rubbish you just pushed aside, but offerings of dead rats, uncured, fresh skins and other offal left by devotees of the viper-headed deity. You're positive that the remainder of this post is a flat out lie.
Obvious paths: out.

You spit on the ground.
> spit on altar
You spit on the ebony altar.
> tap altar
You tap an ebony altar.

You spit on the ground.

>>You... you know the gods in DR aren't real, right?
Lies! I also tried out SPIT ALTAR just to see if it was possible. Next day I lost my wallet and my garden was raided by raccoons. Zachriedek is the truth.
