change the order in which moves are displayed
... or, rather, offer an option to flip them, newest to oldest instead of oldest to newest. A long scene requires me to be constantly scrolling to the bottom of the page to read the newest addition. Wouldn't it be nice if that were right up top instead?

Offer 'Sliders' for either characters or stories
Many games explicitly have, or are often described, with the phrase 'sliders' - Much like these UI elements, the idea is that it represents movement back and forth across a continuum of options.
How 'Hard' is the science in our SF game? How much is this game split between Mystery and Horror? How much control of NPC's does the Gm want to cede to players? Of course, you can't think of every one of these continuums, so why not make them an option for Narrators to use when describing their game? These are ubiquitous web elements already, and could be…

Side bar with character
The site bar with the characters in a game could be fixed (css) so you could see it no matter where you are in the page.

Allow players to revise a character submission
It would be great if, having submitted a character and realised you'd made an error, you could unsubmit it for a revision.

Put the entries from the daily digest email in chronologial order
At the moment, they are aggregated like so:
• The narrator ended a scene (3 total)
• The narrator started a new scene (3 total)
etcIt would be more useful if you could list the flow of posts as it actually happened, and maybe highlight the most recent move.

Favoriting Scenes
As a Storium player I would like to mark a scene in particular game as a "favorite" so that can return to the scene later to marvel at the storytelling within the scene.

Have game adapt to changes you have made to cards.
I've changed the name and sex of some of the basic character cards but the original names keep popping up and I have to waste time going back to figure what I changed the name to and then edit the new card.

Review System for Worlds, Stories, Narrators, and Players
I'd like to see the ability to give 1-5 star ratings and have them listed along with the corresponding item. This would help greatly in choosing stories to participate in as a player or worlds to use and players to accept as a narrator.

Show asset cards as neutral-color (perhaps border)
If there is a 5-card challenge and a negative card is played, the challenge is described as tending weak. If a neutral asset card is played, the challenge is still described as tending weak, with 2 orange icons in the grid. To a player this looks like 3 positive cards need to be played to end positive, but in fact, 2 would do the trick.
With large challenges (e.g., 9 cards), where one has to balance strength, weakness, and asset cards just to achieve the number, the "challenge grid" is not very helpful, since it is a single color.

require narrator approval for character bio edits
Add feature so that upon completing an edit the bio is sent to narrator with changes highlighted for approval or discussion. Saves having to try to co-ordinate off site.

Character journals
Allow people to write a side character journal if they were t involved in a scene, or between scenes, during intermission / what have you. The narrator could award new cards if they wanted, or credit toward a goal or sub plot.

show past games in a person's user page
Right now it shows currently playing games, but it would be cool to see the past characters (if public) a person played. It might help a GM decide if they think the person is a right fit for their game, etc.

Character bio text needs to be visible in popup under the cast list
There is a small free form bio section attached to each player character. It would be nice if that was shown in the rollover popup for the Cast area.
I noticed this was marked completed as in Alpha 2, but I don't see it on the rollover.
6 votesThanks for the feedback. In Alpha 2 we have added more character info to the popups, but you’re right that the bio is still not shown. This is mostly a space consideration, because bios can be quite long (and many are). We’ll noodle on how we might be able to fit this in…

Expand Card save, play, and use options for narrator cards. see description for specific suggestions.
Saving: option to make Any card permanent (like location and character cards currently are, remain after played) or temporary (like asset, goal and challenge cards currently are- disappear after played a setable number of times);
option to save Any card's play details: after writing and with its play details - like outcome suggestions, number of points and cards in a stack, etc.
Location: option to be playable anytime and more than one per scene;
Character: option to be playable more than once per scene (currently can be done by duplicating).

updateable summary/ table of contents/ important game history
an updateable summary of the game where main points/events can be recorded preferably by both narrators and players, maybe organised by character + significant npc's and story events. this is for complicated games where alot has happened and an outline style reference log that can link to specific moves, can help the readers and group follow plots and subplots and game references. i suppose this can be done also with a wiki which i read might be in production at some time in the future. this will help with new character integration especially i think- a system that can bookmark…

Ability to flag stories as "Not interested"
Hi,
While filtering through the stories it would be good to be able to click on a story and mark it as "Not interested", there are a lot of stories on there and I keep rereading the introductions while trying to find something to pique my interest. It would be useful to be able to just flip some off ( with a check box that allows me to also see these at any stage ).

List favourite users and favourite games on their respective pages
The favourite games and favourite users pages should list the favourited items. I would recommend a two column setup* with the activity items most prominent. Additionally, the user listing should allow removal without navigating to the user's page (a small "[-]" or a small version of the star from the profile pages)
- At least for the favourite users page. I don't have any favourite games yet, so I'm not sure what the activity entries are like there. The favourite user entries are narrow enough to allow for two columns comfortable, even after a font size increase.
