* Added the ability for regular cast members to play up to three characters in a story. They must send characters on audition and be approved as per usual.

* Made it so that the application announcement now include the name of an applying character to make it easy to sort out who's character belongs to who when receiving multiple applications simultaneously.

* Reduced the number of act post pages displayed for pagination to 10.

Thanks Founder!

They're nice changes, particularly adding the character name to the application message.

I noticed a couple new Story Themes as well. They're quite attractive.

I really like the look of the improved tech grey theme and will use it for something sometime. The multiple characters per player change helps me deal with a story issue.

The work is appreciated Founder. Thank you.

I'm testing out extended StoryCrafter controls over cast assignments. It is fairly powerful so don't play around with it unless you feel confident you know what you're doing.

I had no idea what this actually entailed until I went and had a look.  Wow, good stuff Founder.  Thanks.  That should come in handy for those games that have a player drop for whatever reason, but the character themselves is still integral to the story and needs to be filled by another player, rather than played as an NPC.

I agree, it's a GREAT feature!

As long as a snooty SC doesn't just arbitrarily re-assign characters. O.o

Thirded.  Or whatever.  :)

Great stuff!

I believe the 'hmmmm?' in your question answered it for you.  :D
