While I’m, in theory, on board with this – it’s a bit more effort than I think most people imagine. Not all imms have the same powers or ability to make those things happen, and it normally requires an ‘up the chain’ team effort, meaning to even get something going you’re counting on everyone being around.

That’s one of the reasons I enjoy smaller quests. I can just jump in, do them, and don’t need to make more work for someone else on my account.

I’m working on learning how to do ‘bigger’ stuff, but it definitely requires more effort. Creating objects isn’t as easy as *poofing* them into existence or anything. Then tracking them has its own difficulties. Then trying to keep track of all the players involved, or even trying to set up an auto-completing quest (which then requires a coder’s assistance). Even rewarding requires higher up stuff, so it definitely gets tricky in terms of trying to get approval for everything you said, coordinate enough to make it work out properly, and then be involved online as its happening to actually monitor and see the results.

That said, I’m 100% up for trying, but I don’t think I could manage them that often given that it requires so many people coordinating together at the right times.

Totally giving it thought, and I’ll see what can be managed. It likely won’t be as grandiose, but hey, gotta start somewhere, right?

Thanks for the helpful idea!
