Actually, I was speaking to a GM for simutronics and she said that in some of the "world-breaking" events (like the invasion of the capital city by pirates) two things happened: A) that everyone that was in the game that missed contributing to the outcome of the event can tell you everything that happened, almost as if they thought that they were in the middle of being involved, and B) everyone marks their "old-timer-ness" by how many of these events they've passed through. You still have to be careful of repeatedly favoring folks, but big events are good for the game. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ..
