[Meta Thread] Dragonstrike's Pokerole Test Game: Mount Coronet Mystery

[Lord Windos]

Question: Is that Orange Haired Woman on the shore next to the Stairs for the Floor, or are the Left or Right shore (using the picture's as the main reference) ? 'Cause I don't think I need to tell anyone Ran will be making a b-line to the woman, damn the Stair being right there. That, and I want to wait at least an Encounter's worth of time so that Kee/Karen/Kokgeki have their Encounters at their section of the Floor.

Question 2: Will investigating/checking out the OHW take up an Encounter? I don't particularly care if it does, but if it doesn't I'll have to find something IC justifiable for Ran to do that would delay him from taking the Stairs after resolving that situation, so that I don't interfere with the others Encounters by rushing to the next Floor.

She's on the same shore as Randolph and company.  Espeon's back is currently turned to the group.

It does!  Each room's events will typically take only one encounter in total.  The stairs tile, however, is just an indicator that you've reached the end of the floor when you've finally reached it.

Tiles that have been visited already may or may not count as additional encounters at my discretion if they are revisited.

Okie dokie, and okay! Now I can post without worrying about the details now, hooray!

Hmm....which means its probably more efficient for which ever group runs into a dead-end to sit around their until the other group finds the Stairs for a Floor OR the other group also gets dead-ended, in which case both groups start retracing their steps however much is necessary. Not very fun, but unless the old tiles get radical refreshes or big changes on revisit, it's just going to be a wasted Encounter for whatever group waltz back into them (If it does eat up an Encounter), which builds their Exhaustion gauges and forces them to be put on a delay while the other group is actively exploring their given tile(s).
