"Hey, I know there's this sniper plot, but a I've had the Frankfort Frank Festival scheduled for two goddamned months. I don't really want to turn it into a head-popping extravaganza - can we work out something where I can run it without having to constantly pose terrified people in kevlar helmets?"

Yeah, this is essentially what I was saying above, except I looked at it from two players/storytellers coming to an agreement, while Pyrephox is looking at it from a point past the possibility of that agreement and at which staff has had to become involved in a mediatory capacity. But it's essentially the same solution. In this scenario, staff's reaction could reasonably be: "It won't be a head-popping extravaganza, but maybe pose a little tension because no one knows if someone might get shot, and we can add an incident towards the end after your scene is mostly over."
