Audience Participation Double Header!

Don’t worry, cats ‘n’ kittens, I haven’t forgotten about the next post in the “running an RP event” series.  However, since I’m running behind today, I sent out the HALP I NEED A TOPIC signal, and got two very good questions: From that Fellsabucket: “How do you balance out personal like/dislike for a character between [...]
