give Narrators the power to edit the character's cards.
If a character picks up too many of a card that you intend to spread out, or if they pick up cards that they are not supposed to be able to because they're not 'in the scene' where the card is.

Allow players to address multiple challenges in one move.
Often a player will wish to address two challenges in short succession, or even perform a single action that furthers two challenges at once. For this reason players should be able to address two or more challenges in one move.

Let narrators add hidden outcomes.
I started a mystery story, and quickly found I have to keep the clues hidden in a Word doc on my dropbox. My Strong outcome is "You get the clue" and my Weak outcome is "you get the clue, but..." (fail forward philosophy). However, I can't say what the clue actually is.
I would like to have an outcome option that automatically reveals the hidden clue text, but not until after the challenge is resolved.

Create a super-simple mobile app for tracking games and alerting you to new moves
A very simple mobile app to push alerts when someone either comments or moves in a game you are playing would be very handy. If it's not on your roadmap, hopefully a public API will allow someone else to build one.

allow narrators to invite guests as observers without making story public
It would be great, if narrators could invite guests as passive observers to a story, without making the story public (i.e. invitation by email or private link). I have a few people who are curious about Storium and I would love to be able to give them access to a story, so that they can passively wathc.

Preview the posts we make to the forums
Right now when we're playing a game, we have the option to preview what we're posting, rather than publishing it immediately. This lets us look at it, make sure we didn't mess up italics, paragraphs, etc.
Can you please add the same functionality to the forums? Since we can't edit our posts (except for a brief window when creating a new thread), it'd be nice to be able to get them right the first time.

Users can now edit their forum posts as long as they are the most recent entry on the page.

should find stories by language.
Since english is not my mother tongue it would be nice to have an additional language attribute to be searched / filtered for. Furthermore it would be easier to find open games in One's native language.

Editing Characters after submitted (but before playing)
I noticed that after you submitted a character, and pending approval, you cannot edit it -- only before you submit it or after you've been approved to play.
This makes it really annoying when you just caught mistakes or you realize someone submitted already a character too similar to yours, etc. Allowing this change could make people actually avoid being refused.

Add a page or tab for the world to reference places and show a map?
It be interesting to have some tools to organize a bigger game or if players are on two different adventures to show the world to the players whether it be in a city or across continents that were created by the players. maybe even a tool to make maps as the narrator would be interesting to hear your guys thoughts.

Assets to have an option of being positive or negative
I would like to have the option of giving an asset a positive or negative value, in addition to the neutral value already in existence.
For example, a 'gun' could have either a positive or negative value attached to it, depending upon the genre. So forex in a Pulp scenario it could be postive, in a Dr Who type scenario it would be negativ

Permit more than one Place Card for each scene.
I understand that only one Place Card can be played per scene.
If this is not true, please let me know, soon---my game could start as soon as this weekend (April 26th)...
A Scene should not be defined by one place---many scenes in literature flow from one location to another.
Having the ability to play, perhaps, three Place Cards per scene would allow more literary "fidelity".........

For some challenges, last card played selects different player as winner
As an option: allow the narrator to define a "pass the buck" challenge. The winner of the PTB challenge (last card played) must select some other player to complete the story.

Allow the narrator to offer options for what the next scene will be.
I'm doing it informally by putting in [Do you want to pursue the suspect? Go back to the station? Check with your sources? Something else?] at the end of the scene closing. The players can then choose the next scene, rather than the narrator picking it for them.
I would love to see some tool put in to allow that rather than having to do it informally.

Summarize the "Favorites" section
In the "My Favorites" section, perhaps show a list of the favorite-d stories with a notification icon/text to the right identifying how many new moves, activities (e.g., ending a scene) and/or the date of the latest activity. That way users could identify if they've seen something or not (instead of trying to remember if they logged on 6 or 7 hours ago).

Character Submission Closure
Hello,
I recently was writing up a character submission, and while I was proof-reading it, the narrator closed the submissions. When I went to save, I was told that I could no longer submit what I had spent my time on creating - a character rooted in ideas based on the story he wanted to tell.
I would've loved the opportunity to, at least, submit what I had written. Thankfully, I copied and pasted the text into another document, otherwise, it would've been lost completely.
Is it possible that if you are mid-character creation that you be given a timeframe…

More than 1 Nature Card?
Is there chance to have more than one nature card? I have instances with my world that the "Race" and "Classes" are separate and can't be placed together. Putting the classes in strength/weaknesses doesn't seem right.

Sort Favorites
It would be great to have the option of sorting notifications from your favorites by game, so you don't have to dig through pages of notifications when you miss a few days of action.
