GM Prep for a Game of Trollbabe
ejh:
Thanks Ron and Jesse.
As is often the case with this sort of thing, I went back to look at the part of the rules where I remembered specifically reading that you come up with Stakes only after the player designates a location, and no such part of the rules actually turned out to exist. :)
Thanks for the pointers on what you can prep and what you cant! In the end I guess I'm not that surprised to find out that the kind of prep you'd do for Sorcerer or for Pool isn't in fact out of place in Trollbabe either.
(Now that I see that link to the Forge Midwest thread -- I think I at least skimmed that thread that back when it was posted, stowing "I didn't prep for this particular game," in my mind, and when I read the rules just now, projected my memory of that specific incident into the rules as a generalization.)
Ron Edwards:
Yeah, but my point was that I did prep for the game during the course of the table-group prep. I followed every one of the steps in the rules.
Best, Ron

ah... the vague months-old memories that I projected onto the text conflated "after making the characters but before play begins" with "as play begins." Stupid months old memories! Begone, banished by the power of fresh attentive reading!
