Editing Coordinating Pause (section)

===Conduct===

Sadly, not all Players get along from the outset. Also, the Coordinator should not force the Players into anything they do not want to do. There needs to be a fine balance between Player enjoyment and story control.

The easiest way to manage this is to keep the Players involved in their characters. When the Players are focused on doing whatever they can to keep their characters alive and to keep learning more about the mysteries at hand, the less they can derail the story from the tracks. Conversely, the Coordinator should not be forcing the Players into playing their characters one particular way or to only progress the story in one particular direction. Essentially, keep the Players engaged and interested, and they will likely return the favor.

Another means to maintain this balance is to limit out-of-character talk while the story is in progress. While the Players may know information which the characters, in theory, do not, it is important that the Player's knowledge does not factor into the character's actions when the character does not know the information. However, it is okay if a Player consults with the Coordinator or other Players if he or she does not understand a rule or needs a recap of events to bring him or her up to speed.
