A change I intend to make: limiting the jellybean-eating rate to (perhaps) three per minute per player. This will be for pacing. Right now you can click wildly and run out the list, which spoils both the surprise and the sense of immersion.
(I don't have any kind of timer or time-checking in the script system yet. Soon.)
Is your vision that other writers will be able to add their favourite flavours to the list of strings?
No, but that's a good question.
A basic principle of my system is *One Age, one Writer*. It will not be possible for you to alter anybody else's Age. This keeps the design process simple, and of course limits the possibility of griefing.
(This doesn't mean that people can't collaborate on an Age design, but just one player account will have editing access for the Age on the server.)
I envision a few exceptions to this rule, but they will all be strictly limited. For example, it is possible to create a "chalkboard" where any visitor can update the text. (This is just a publicly editable string. It's up to the Age creator whether to describe it as a chalkboard, a banner, a journal, an imager, or whatever.) Or there might be a "chalkboard" which is editable only by the instance owner, so that you can customize a personal instance.
To do what you suggest with the jellybeans, I'd have to add a new facility, a publicly editable *list*. This is possible but it seems less widely useful than the chalkboard trick. I'll keep it in mind, but I have a lot of basic infrastructure to finish first.
