Playtesting a challenge is obviously important. I don't always have the time to do it, between my studies. I do do simulations on paper, which gives me some insight, but playing is obviously very different. Thus, I'd like to invite you to playtest the challenge. This means just basic playing with the rules, seeing if they work. But when do they work? The rules work when you're having fun and your Clan thrives. Cats are lost and gained, different events happen, kits are born.
"Bugs" happen when the challenge does not work. These are what I'd mainly like you to report on. Did your whole Clan die off? Are there too many cats? Is everyone in the medicine den? Too few kits? The leader is in power indefinitely because they aren't losing lives? These are all problems with the frequency of events, and that can be adjusted. How about is there too little happening, or perhaps are you always working on one event or another? There should be a couple rest days in between the events, but no more than that. Please report this as well. I'd also like to get the insight of someone rotating between Clans. Does the challenge still work?
Please, playtesters, report everything you experience. All this will go towards making the challenge better. At the moment, the challenge still isn't done, so events will happen with less frequency than they should. You can still playtest by just rolling between the existing rolls every couple of days to simulate the actual frequency of events.
