No, it's our task. Because last time we left things up to Ana, we got the flash teleport mess. This isn't a knock against him, but rather that it's unfair to ask one person to think about how an entire world works. The responsibility should be shared. So yeah, expect me to be critical if something doesn't work. It's my job to make sure it all runs smoothly, just as much the DM's, and yours.
I meant that ana, being the DM, is kinda de facto the person who describes the events and controls the npc's to make events happen for us. I did not mean to suggest 'let's just have ana choose how he wants to resolve the ED thing' but rather an opportunity for tiro to get in contact with ana and go 'hey, i want this to be a thing for my character, i think this might work out if yadda yadda yadda happens, can you make it work?' and if the DM says he can, i will make its way to the story.
I was not depriving player input, rather I was supporting it.
Right. That seems fine. My question, then, is 'and will that happen'? I'm not sure how many times everybody else has spoken to Ana about mechanical stuff. My impression is that it hasn't happened often, so I'm operating under that for now, since apparently all the communication took place in the chatroom. If Tiro wants to work things out with Ana, that seems like a pretty good idea - I'm just not sure it's happening.
