But should this depend on the size of the crowd? Could you recognise your friend
Bob the dwarf if he is standing in a huge crowd? What about Joe the Giant? Would
you suddenly notice new people over time if you stood in the crowd long enough?
For example:
]north
You are standing on a grassy knoll.
There is a large crowd of people all around you. You recognise Bob and Joe in
the crowd.
]say hi bob, have you seen Bubba?
You say 'hi Bob, have you seen Bubba?'
Bob says 'He said he would meet us here, but I've been standing around for several
minutes now and I've still not seen him'
Of course this would also mean that if you saw someone, the chances are they
would also see you. I suppose this is more about the players location than
anything.
Perhaps I am just getting over-complicated now?
KaVir.
