NEW1: Would you enjoy a public, searchable, cross-indexed database of ImPort powers to facilitate plotting and CR (choose one)?
I'm relatively certain that you mean this as an OOC database, but it could potentially be read as an IC one; or at least I read it as potentially that way, at any rate. Just maybe a clarification on that-- additionally, maybe break it into 2 questions, because I actually think an ICly public database of ImPort powers could be interesting (but it may not be everyone's jam, so would def need opinions).
Though, I realize the IC option of a database could be pretty polarizing, and it may even need further in-game explanation; would characters have to be complicit in adding their powers to this database (maybe it could even be part of being Registered, like the fine print of "by accepting these terms and conditions, you agree to having your powers listed in a public-access database" sort of thing), or is the government just putting it out there regardless of characters' want/not of having their powers listed out there in the public, and updating it any time someone ports out/back in with updated paperwork?
So, I'm thinking something like:
NEW1a: Would you enjoy a public, searchable, cross-indexed database of ImPort powers for OOC use to facilitate plotting and CR (choose one)? Yes No Maybe Don't care/mind Abstain
NEW1b: Would you like for the database above to also be available for characters to access in-game (choose one)? Yes No Maybe Don't care/mind Abstain
NEW1c: How would you prefer an IC database be implemented (choose one)? ICly chosen, as part of Registration ICly chosen, separate from Registration ICly unwilling, as part of arrival or porting back in from an update I don't want an IC database at all Don't care/mind Abstain
NEW1d: If the IC database is implemented do you want it to be retroactive for characters that have been in game? Yes No Don't care/mind Abstain
