What are some inspirations for your quests? Both quests and non-quests.
A general curiosity I am currently investigating is the DDR (GDR for anglos). It's general aesthetic and state structure makes its history (and current state) really interesting.
Though we often heavily associate communism with Slavic/Eastern cultures (thanks, Cold War) people often forget that for 41 years there existed a culturally 'western' communist republic that, despite its best efforts, got subsumed into another country after almost half a century apart.
Pitch a quest, be it one you want to run or one you want to see run but don't have the time/confidence to run (if it's the latter then just run it, it can't hurt). If you don't have an idea for a full quest, then how would you change one you've read/are reading?
I don't have the time at all, but if I were to return to QM'ing again I would return to running a historical quest set during an important historical time period. My first thoughts are the dissolution of the Austro-Hungarian empire (from the eyes of an Austrian, à la Radetsky March (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radetzky_March_(novel)) and the Seven Year's war in America (i.e. the French and Indian war).
What did you do during 4chan's downtime? Did you go to another site to get your questing fix or just wait it out? Have you expanded your quest reading to other sites since, or are you /qst/ only?
I don't use this platform outside of /qst/ much, so I just stuck to the other platforms I use. Then again, I am not too much of an online person and I had already quit running my quest for quite a long time by the time the site conked out, so it did not impact me too harshly.
Do you feel more or less confident to post now, after all the dirty laundry has been aired out and the timer decreased? You should still vote btw, unless you're posting from a mobile IP or something and have an excuse.
No. I don't lurk. Either I am interested and into the quest when it begins, or I do not join at all because I am too late/not interested. I would have liked to see where Our Brave Boys was headed, but it requires a fuckton of preliminary lore reading + the characters have already been created and assigned partners. I would have loved to hop into Max Spider, but that has around 25 1000-post threads for me to comb through. Also there is apparently a fuckton of American capeshit comic lore in it that my eurofag brain raised on Astèrix and the Bluecoats cannot comprehend at all.
What other boards do you frequent? What boards (besides /qst/) do you wish had more traffic? If you could make a board, what would it be?
I don't really use (or like) the rest of 4chan, but /n/, /o/, /k/ and /ck/ seem nice. The more devoted the board is to the topic (and the more I like said topic), the better it appears to be.
