No, what Rev means is that Jos wants it kept secret as to how it works for as long as possible.

And so do I.

As usual I think the policy of keeping these things secret is strange...at least if it regarding lack of clothes. You would for example know if you are dressed too lightly, since you would be cold...

If it is jerms that is of course another matter...so I hope it is.

now....just imagine if you have a cold, and you role play a kiss....do you think that the game could somehow catch on and start spreading it? Unlikely, but cool.

Or maybe if you just whisper to someone or they whisper to you, then you were probably "standing near to them" so then there is an increased chance that they get it. Or if you hand something to them or they hand something to you...same thing.

This is cool

I haven't seen it yet, but people seem to be sneezing.

People sneeze for any number of reasons. Allergies for one. Maybe what we'er seeing is people dislplaying thier food allergy.

Or colds. This could in fact be a cold that's going around, but since there's no cure for the cold IRL, I doubt there'd be one in cantr, so we'd have to hope that the cold would run it's course and people would get better after a while.

Sinusoildal Cancer. They could have cancer in thier sinuses and are sneezing as their heads rot from the inside out. There is a cure, however. Amputation.

Maybe there's nose demons running around with feathers. Who knows? I would just like to know if there's any way to fight the sneezeing, or if a sneezing character is now doomed to die.
Reality was never my strong point.

And maybe you should not apply all your real life knowledge about diseases? ;)

I've been lucky so far in that the sick people my char has come across have RP'd it pretty good. There's a great sense of mystery about the illness right now.

I haven't seen anyone sick yet, but if it's dangerous and characters start figuring out that it's contagious, I imagine that one "cure" would be to kill or drive out the carriers. :)

Now if your arm turns green and falls off is that a bad thing?

Oh, and if I run out of food can I cook the arm and eat it?
