I have a question about the prompts, it says to roll a D6 however there are 39 prompts. How do I roll higher prompts if i'm rolling a D6?
Thank you for reaching out, I worried I might not have explained it will. so I will try again.
Think of the prompt list as a board game if that helps. Start at the beginning, roll a D6 and go down the list that many spaces. So if you rolled a 5 you would go down to prompt 5 which is "Resident stops in". You write about it, then roll a D6 again and continue down the prompt list from 5. If you had rolled a 2 you would move 2 more spaces down to prompt 7 (5+2 = 7) which is "something is broken and you need help fixing"
Does that make sense? Is there another way I could explain it? If I can write it better I would want to do an updated version.
I think maybe I should write like
Once you have finished writing about that event, roll another D6 and continue down the prompt list. If you move past the end of the list or answer 10 events, you have made it to through a busy day and it’s time to head home for the night.
maybe the "Continue down the prompt list" makes more sense then
"move that much further down the prompt list."
Oh ok. Yea that makes sense. Thank you for your explanation
Maybe this? After rolling your first D6, add the result to the next D6 roll. Continue this process down the prompt list,
