Well firstly let me commend you on this endevour. Hope you pull it off. Secondly I was wondering that if you go through with it, could the system be intergrated into other games? It's a shame that lots of games don't have such intricate social mechanics, a system that could easily installed would be excellent.

The most important parts of any game are story and characters. Master these and a good game is on its way.
