  1. More data on card plays

    Basically, what I want as the narrator is to be able to tell how many cards a particular person has played in the scene, or what specific cards have been played on a given obstacle or person card. I find myself wanting that information frequently so that I can give prompts and help to people who are unsure of what to do, but having to do a bunch of math to figure it out.

    How important is this to you?

    The Activity Summary now lists how many cards each player has played in a given scene and how far along each challenge is and how it is trending (Weak/Strong/Neutral).

  2. Display outcome of cards on the Manage your game page

    It would be handy to see what the challenge and character card's outcomes were so we could have an overview of how these will play out in the game.

    really enjoying Storium so far though - thanks!

  3. Players can request revisions

    There should be an ability for the players to request revisions. Either because of it's something that falls under gross misconduct by the storyteller, or to request that the storyteller make something more clear.

  4. Clarify Formatting for Paragraphs

    Just a tiny gripe, and very minor inconvenience, but it might be worth pointing out that formatting asterisks need to block out each individual paragraph - I'm more used to html-style tagging so assumed you could just leave the asterisk open until you wanted to switch back to normal type. Easy to correct for the user, so hardly a big deal. Overall, think this is great!

  5. Provide character background

    I think I've noticed my players balk at character creation when it comes to background writing. maybe some copy there, or some suggestions to speed the players getting to play?

  7. Crop Larger than Image

    Like most image uploaders, users cannot "crop" an image to a size wider than the original. I think it'd be nice to be able to crop WIDER than the source image, filling the new space in with white, so that I can upload a square image and make it FIT inside the oblong space provided for any of the card images.

  8. Add a Documents area

    Add an area to put handouts, background material, images, maps, and other things to share with players.

  9. "How to Play" Feedback

    I had a number of minor comments on the "How to Play" pages:

    • There should be an explanation of when you will receive email notifications. I think the notification system is very good, but we just didn't know what to expect when we started.
    • Please explain the "Commentary" section in the instructions (or on a ? next to Commentary). It is not intuitively obvious who will see the commentary and that it is scene-specific.
    • I didn't realize that you can make moves without playing cards or confronting challenges. This should be more explicit in the instructions as it is a…

  10. Replace Icons with Thumbnails

    Storium does a great job encouraging you to find evocative images to add to cards. But you can't see the image unless you click on the card. I put the effort into finding the right image, I want that image to replace the little target/bag/flag icon so I know the players won't miss it and will see that there's something new when I make an update.

  11. Character Relationship Cards

    I would like to see cards that establish relationships with other player characters that you could then call on to address challenges. This would integrate the player characters better and allow for more player interactions.

  12. Allow players to post pics

    Would love to be able to post pics along with the post if we wanted to show the avatar in a certain position, or an object, etc.

  13. Narrator sets move order

    When a scene starts it's apparently a free for all to post. It would be very helpful if the narrator could set the posting order in-game with the option to let players skip their turn if they wanted.

  14. Display the narrator comments on a character somewhere

    I received an email notification that my narrator commented on my character, but it's not displayed anywhere on the site or on my character sheet.

    If you click on the link that was included in the email notification, you should see it. Can you confirm? (You won’t see it if you go to the site and then click over to your character.)

  16. Player vs player conflict

    There doesn't seem to be any way to have player vs player conflict. I mean I could create an obstacle, but that seems to be a little ... flat? There really isn't any benefit or penalty to the players other than just ... kind of being there?

    Thoughts:
    Be able to add characters to the character or conflict system.
    Be able to give up character's items and plot cards as possible rewards for winning.

  17. YouTube embeds

    It would be a very neat tool for conveying mood, atmosphere, information, or just background music if YouTube videos could be embedded within posts. I use it often in a play-by-forum game running on Vanilla.

  18. Options for various cards to be dropped

    So, you have two out comes. Weak or strong. Instead of having just one pool of cards that the players can draw from, why not tie them to the outcome. You get X,Y,Z for a strong outcome, but just X,Y for the weak one (or even A,B).

    Gives the players something to shoot for, when they decide what cards they want to play

  19. Provide choice of rewards for completing a goal cards.

    When a narrator plays a stack of Goal cards for a player to pick up, the only reward currently given when that Goal is compelted is a wild strength. However there may be times when the narrator would prefer to reward a pre-defined Strength, or unlock a stack of asset cards on completing the goal.

  20. Allow preample, for cooperative creation of the game world.

    Player would be able to register to a not complete world, suggest or even help create the game cards.
