I'm putting together my seed of a game idea for the first round, excited to see how other people run with it. Some questions that came to mind today:
What happens to games that are not completed? Say a game makes it through round two but the third person fails to submit something on time. Will the other two participants be notified at the end? What about if the second person in the chain fails to submit something by the deadline?
This is actually one I've been thinking a lot about. Certainly at the very least, I'll notify everyone involved at the end. If the second step doesn't come through, I'll send off the game-seed from round 1 to someone for the third round, too (and tell the original collaborator what happened). I'm also hoping to be able to reassign stuff if I learn in time that a collaborator drops out (and ask if early finishers have the time/energy to work on the dropped game) but of course that depends on hearing from the person who's dropping out!! Which I know won't always happen. Hopefully with timely reminders and posts though we'll get most of them.
