Events "genre" / types.
-
Okay, @Thenomain is evil, and has issued me a challenge. This challenge will result in an overhaul of some of the fiddlybits in my events code.
One will be a definition of available genres (don't panic staff will be able to add new ones).
To make things easier I would like to have a couple of lists people can plug in without doing the commands one by one. (Instead on install they just grab the attribute and set it).
So some thoughts.
GENERIC/GENERAL LIST:
- social
- mystery
- action
- open
- suspense
- drama
WoD:
- changeling
- mage
- werewolf
- vampire
- mortal
- mortal+
- changing breed
- immortal
- sineater
- demon
- promethean
- mummy
- cross sphere
ANITAVERSE
- Kiss
- pack
- pard
- rodere
- coven
- police

DRESDEN:

PERN:

GAME O THRONES
- DEATH

ThThe specific and generic can be mix together mind.
Thoughts on things to go on lists?
-
I'd suggest adding an "Occult" category. I used the hell out of that as a category on TR.
-
"risky" is one that might be good. Not really a "theme" but a good keyword for the scenes that might be riskier than others in terms of consequences for your character.

I am not sure what these are. I set an event and these are tags to say what's likely to happen?

-
Where does Strip Truth or Dare fit on the genre list? Make sure you have that one covered.

You'd probably want to add 'private' and 'invite-only' to the list, for things like the family events or private scenes somebody needs to schedule and keep the reminders for.
I always found the 'private events' going up on the event board to be in slightly poor taste, but I understand their purpose and there seemed to be plenty of them.
Being me, I'd probably use the heck out of a 'humor' or 'comedy' or 'campy' tag.
'competition' might be a good one for the general category, also. It could cover anything from beauty pageants to jousts.

@Sunny - this list seems right to me. Everything else could be covered by the generic tags.

@Sunny @JinShei @surreality Thank you!
I'll add those to the list of prebuilt "genres".
RE: private events, it's always been a want of mine to be able to make +Event/private -- which is visible only to staff and the players invited (and would in theory only notify those players). Taking out notification to the +Bbs, and changing how people see new +Events may make this a little easier.
Hhm. May need to make a private / non-private tag for events. HHHHM.
