I'm very torn about the +task system, and well...a lot of the systems, to be honest. They're kind of like mini-games to me, only I got the idea early on that if I neglected them too much I'd be screwed. Adjusting to the toggle style (eg, using @<command> instead of +<command> for a lot of things, the @bb, etc) is new, not being able to use aliases or shortened names in pages, three different kinds of message systems, systems for developing npc's, systems for clothing, systems for building.) It's pretty overwhelming, and fortunately people have been very patient when I've asked questions. I try to look stuff up first but I don't always find the right syntax, or the command to do what I want to do is not intuitive to me.

I've been kind of regarding these as MY problems, and not necessarily those of the game. It's a much heavier focus on coded systems than I'm used to and I just have to take the time to get used it and get into the practice.

I've suggested a sort of To-Do List cheat sheet that a couple of people said was a good idea, along the lines of "Run these weekly, do these daily" and while the part of me that loves order and Tetris and putting things in neat boxes loves the idea of a checklist, I worry that it will start to feel more like an obligation, or "homework" in order to keep up.

Kvetching aside, I am enjoying my RP there, there's always something to do, and thus far I have been welcome to every scene I've asked to join.
