My girlfriend is really slow at text roleplaying. It’s been getting worse, and today we got mad at her because we went two hours in her game without any plot happening during a session where everyone was in voice call.
Do you have any advice for her on how to improve the pacing of her game?
Everyone else was at our computers and we found out two hours in that she’d been on her phone in bed the whole time. She swears she’s equally fast on her phone.
I was streaming The Office for the other players while we waited for her to type because it was really boring, and she joined the stream, so she was also watching The Office on her phone while typing on her phone.
Yeah, that’s not poor typing skill, that’s just slack-assing, nothing you can do about that except find people who are more engaged with the RP. :P
Also if she’s just as fast on her phone as a physical keyboard then I’m gonna go ahead and assume that she can’t touch-type worth a damn. Skill + physical keyboard will beat skill + virtual keyboard every time, even accounting for swype, auto-correct, word-completion/guessing, etc.
