I also think part of the problem is that we write out the plot and where we are going and why... then unless people get involved, that is how the plot is played out. Some things have to be carefully scripted to avoid player death, which I think some people don't realize.
For example: Player T is in jail in Malkier. Player U wants to kill that player without suffering IC consequences. Well, Malkier isn't going to have it's prisoners in a place where they could be easily killed. So that would need to be highly thought out.
I also think people don't realize the difference in global TP vs. regular TPs. Global ones are like the taint cleansing... it takes alot to get that planned out to where pieces fit in reason. With Age and I running it, if people start turning in another direction, it'd reasonable that it'll take forever. And there is room left in it to work. The Manetheren ending was a mess, but even the end of that was planned out. So... I'm confused.
