Thank you for your feedback! We appreciate all of it.
Our current idea for AC is 20 comments across at least three threads per month, and a reward system for more (40 comments let you turn one echo into a double echo in the following month, 60 comments let you turn two echoes into double echoes in the following month [double echoes=one trigger yields two echoes]).
At this time, we have three ideas for levelling the field for characters from large casts and small casts/LCWs:
Firstly, we will try to encourage AU family bonds and other close CR that might be capable of replacing canon cast to at least a degree when it comes to echoes. Secondly, we will try to encourage characters from similar canons to help each other out with their echoes - say, two vampires from different canons. To achieve both of this, we would mostly use plotting posts and similar venues.
Thirdly, there will be a hard cap on the number of echoes per month and on the number of echoes per (extended) conversation. We hope that this won't be limiting to players but help to balance the game some. (The rules will be slightly altered for new characters so they can catch up with older ones more easily.)
We would appreciate any further ideas and thoughts on how to handle this issue, from you or others.
