There's been some talk about setting a Shared/Solo game, which I'm really excited by. We sort of defaulted to 30's style noir as an example, but I'm not sure if that's the best world. So, a POLL! If you were to participate in a Shared Universe for your solo gaming, what genre would you most prefer?

(UPDATE: THE POLL IS OVER, AND SCI-FI HAS WON. SEE OTHER POSTS IN THE GROUP FOR #SHAREDSCIFI).

  1. I'm good for all these categories, but if I have to pick one, I'll pick my favorite.

  2. That's the best way to approach it.

  5. it's up to you, of course, but you might want to have a follow up poll between the highest and closest ones to pick a winner. Probably will get more commitment that way, as people who, for example, voted for Noir Mystery might not play Sci-fi if it wins, but might play Modern Supernatural if it wins in a runoff poll.

    Is there a way to make these polls take multiple choices?

  6. Alex Yari There are polls you can make on other sites that allow you to make multiple choice, like Strawpoll.

  7. Yeah, I was just wondering about G+ polls. So people don't have to go offsite if they don't want to. Thanks for the heads up, though!

  8. Yeah, and the google ones can only allow limited answers--I wanted to do "D&D-style fantasy" vs. "Grounded Fantasy" for Fantasy and "Cyberpunk" vs. "Space Exploration" vs. "Post-Apocalypse" for Sci-Fi, but I also wanted to keep it as easy as possible.

  9. Todd Rokely Oh, yeah, definitely. There's many sub-genres.

  10. Yeah. If Sci-Fi was the clear favorite, I'd probably do a follow up poll, but 30's Noir is running neck and neck, and is just different enough that I think it might be best to give it a whirl. Assuming the numbers remain the same.

  11. We'll let this run through tonight. Hopefully everyone interested will get a change to chime in!
