Starting to plan a new show for next year, and I have a question for #TTRPG designers - what's something that you love to see from someone who runs an AP of your game/what are some things that AP runners do that you feel support you as a game designer?

You're investigating a series of grisly murders and you're hot on the killer's trail. You've gathered the clues, filed progress reports with your employer, and you're this close to piecing everything together, until... you interrupt the killer and become their next victim. Your reports go dark. 1/3
