BW, playtesting, demo and philosophy

Strange things happen. I was supposed to post an actual play review (AP) I have already written at the forge. But then, it turned out into something else ; which requires my attention and changes how I had plan to deal with this play test.

Okay, the play test, first :
- We were going to play test Burning Wheel, by Luke Crane, in the context of Avalanche
- While at it, we decided to introduce rpg to Julie (and Denys), who's going to give us a hand with marketing and promotion
- We were supposed to play a single session
- There was a BIG mess concerning character creation in the context of introducing new players
- We turned out to play three sessions
- I was evinced as a DM from the game
- I reported those three sessions at the forge and then "JoyWriter" came in and ask some philosophical questions
- We also talked about the use of "short sessions", or "introduction product"
- Francis has much to say about the game

So, well, the thread at the forge is a real mess. Too much stuff there ; I need to segment it.
That brings me to :
- Maybe tell you a bit more about how we plan to use the blog (and we have used it so far) ; the reason for which I need to separate stuff down.
- Get an overall strategy for BW. This system, used in the context of Avalanche, won't be settled in a single play testing.
- Prepare something like a review, once the play test is over ; and see where it fits best.
- Finish to present the webcomic "from the deep", as I need it to explain the crescendo of Avalanche, but also to have a complete product for a demo.
- Present our strategy for the "beta" testers and define our strategy for the alpha ones.
- Write something down about philosophy and Avalanche.

well, seems like those are the stuff this is coming.

Version abrégée. Je devais faire un compte rendu de partie tout simple. Et bien non, cette partie va nous générer pas mal de travail et d'explications. Un programme à mettre en oeuvre par le biais de ce blog.
