I'm making my own scenario, one of the first ones I've made, but that's besides my point.

So far, my scenario is basicly being a detective. A number of "suspects" will become obvious at some point, but there will be false evidence, people covering eachother, etc. You must solve the mystery of the assassinations of a number of officials.

It's set in the future, where there's the empire and another nation/republic/kingdom. It might be the opposing nation, rebels, vanahtai, maybe even ninjas. I don't even know who did it yet, but what do you think of the Idea?

P.S. - I will make it have more story than action, most likely.

Almost no idea is ever bad in itself. The question is about the execution.

That sounds great. Although some sneaky bugger could steal your idea if he has thought of how it ended, I would look forward to that scenario.

On a side note, you probably shouldn't go around proclaiming "Hey everyone, I'm making a scenario" unless you genuinely plan to finish it. Many scenarios get sluffed off and left for incomplete.

But yeah, now that you've got an idea, off to designing!

I wanna finish it, I really do. I just get sidetracked so easily. Website, forums, building a database...

I figure if you don't have time to play scenarios, you really don't have time to make them.

A mystery could be a good scenario. Really, I've rarely seen an idea hurt a scenario (though it does happen). Bad scenarios are usually bad because of a lack of ideas of any sort, or because of lousy execution.

You might spend too much time making them, therefore not being able to make them.

Well, that makes SO much more sense than what that other guy said.
