Cam/IoD Game structure idea

[twicedead]

There's a problem in long running LARP chronicles. You have a lot of characters doing a lot of different things for a indeterminate length of time. This tends to switch the game style across to simulationist - but this doesn't really work because game events can only occur in tiny chunks of time with limited ST ability and will to support everyone

I'm doing something similar for the mage LARP I'm running ATM. we have a 'quarter' which has two session of social games and a month of smaller mini games allowing character to focus on and move towards the conclusion of stories. Players can also supply their own minigame ideas

I see two problems with your plan, first is that Cam players have always been a pain to write plot for and some are downright resentful for it being there. The second is it reduces the ST to a challenge monkey and admin roll.
