Yes, I thought that too! But I couldn't resist. Which is why I am planning on conducting a poll for people to vote on which camp our hero should join - when I get that far.
As for the rest of the game, of course we all did things in our own particular order, but we completed the same quests, so I don't think the story will vary that much from the actual game experience. I am actually using a walkthrough to help me out with the order of things whenever it 'seems right.'
BTW; I think the thing people will possibly dissagree on the most will be the personality that our hero displays, because we all sort of 'project' ourselves onto his character. (maybe that's what you had in mind, Hwfanatic?) My take on him is that as he starts out very innocent and genuine, albiet a slight problem with opening his mouth when he shouldn't. (hey, maybe this story is really about the rpgdot forums! Lol.. just kidding honest!  )As he dwells in the Colony, however, he will gradually pick up some traits and thinking that is made manifest there, bad included. Ultimately, though, he becomes a "reluctant hero" who is more powerful than even he gives himself credit for.

But, then, the story wouldn't be yours... Don't think of writting stories as a way to humor others: think of it as a way to express yourself.
Our way of liking it would, in the end, probably be limited by the level of resemblance betwixt  the two projections, you got that right. But, I would say, instead of making an universal character to all likings, make one of our own. |

Just write your own story, if you start worrying about what others think and want, things will only go wrong. If your readers wanted to hero to join an other camp, they should have written a story theirselves.

I for one quite like the idea of a poll to determine the camp. It's still entirely his story, only with some reader participation.
We could look at it as our shot at making a little difference in a world that is otherwise out of our control.
NB Loved your latest installment |

Yes, well, that's the problem. You see, I don't HAVE a favorite camp. I've played them all and they each have cool points. So it really doesn't matter to me which one I write about. Like Gorn's best mate said, I just thought it would be a nice way to have others participate in the story.
I guess when I get ready, I'll throw a poll out there and if you want to vote, great, and if not, the story will still go on!
