Ok. I see what your saying now. It does make sense. The whole reserving thing does limit what can happen. And I can see why you don't want to touch the story.
And I see how in a story you can save things for yourself, like is happening, and if we adressed it as a RPG its more a response to what is happening. That would be more fun. However, if people have cool ideas in mind and they want to save situations for themselves....whatever. Its a big pretend world.
