Re: How to Prevent IC info being shared OOC'ly

Thanks for that camlorn.

Another option I was thinking about was to have players keep a kind of character journal, just with brief notes about their roleplay, indicating how they arrived at certain conclusions.

For instance:

Was in the inn today and noticed Tom was limping.

The cloaked man who stole from me the other night was limping.

I asked Tom if he would let me look in his bag.

He refused.

I asked a law enforcer to search him.

He was searched and had my item.

Tom was arrested.

This would, at the very least, let the staff know what a player was doing with their character, which could help in them assisting with plots or including them in events. It also would help players to keep a record of things like this to help them with remembering certain details.

As for whether it would prevent IC information that has been obtained by OOC means being used in roleplay, I'm not sure.
