I know there was a geriatric thread (updated about a year ago) but I can’t recall a game run since then with the geriatric rule set. There are some games that I’ve seen or played in attempting to limit upper levels of posts and they seem rather pleasant.

It feels like more and more I see people fatigued by games that have 100 pages on day one, so:

- Are you interested in geriatric games/games with a post limit per day/etc?
- What’s the appeal of high volume posting in a game for you, if applicable?
- How would you implement a post limit/restriction? Flat number of posts per day, phase, percentage based, etc?
- Are there certain setups you’d like to see ran with any limitations, or setups you think benefit from higher posting?

I’m interested in running games with a limit on posts per day but I want to see what people think about them in general before I queue one up, and if there’s something specific that people find more appealing (off the top of my head I’d probably go with something ran recently in the open queue).
To be fair, I would rather read multiple small brief paragraphs than a post that takes up half of the screen. I have nothing against high volume post counts so long they aren't full of fluff. I think it would be all right to give a post restriction of 25% per phase. I'm not sure about setups really.
