I looked at this as more of a narrator set option. Free-for-all or set move order, preferably something that could be flipped scene to scene. Combined with the idea of limiting some scenes to certain characters, I think this could solve a lot of problems with "Okay who moves now?" that my group is running into.

We will soon be adding the ability for the narrator to explicitly specify which characters are in a given scene. Would that help a bit?
Meanwhile, you can visually segment the action in a scene by using a horizontal rule (“
-” in our layout syntax). Note also that the system does not require that players make a move in every scene. So you can ask someone to “sit this one out” and the scene will be able to progress just fine. Hopefully these techniques can get you un-stuck for the time being?Regarding simultaneous scenes, we’ve received this suggestion from a couple of other users, too, and so we are thinking hard about how we could add it to Storium without making things difficult to use and understand. It’s high on our list so please stay tuned.
Thanks for the feedback!

We are going to try out something related to these suggestions, probably in the timeframe of Gamma. Thanks for the feedback, everyone!

Currently, any card in play is visible to everyone, and each characters’ cards are visible to everyone. The only cards that are “private” are the ones that the narrator holds in their hand.
We’ve toyed with various ideas for making some information “secret”. This is a good addition that we will put into the mix, thank you.

I am once again running into the problem where, due to the fact that my group can't all always be online at the same time, a set move order that's enforced by the system would be very helpful. Hell, even if I can't decided it and it's completely random, that would be better for us than the current free for all system.
I'd prefer to set it up several posts in advanced but I could work with the "next dibs" suggestion.
