Last night's playtest of the GURPS Discworld adventure went well. We identified rough spots in the action, and I got some good feedback on how to refine the presentation and execution of the player characters. Now I know I need to give more time in the beginning to not just the city of Ankh-Morpork, as I did last night, but the set-up and the NPCs in that first scene.
Also, it's perfectly okay not to have an ending in mind even for a pre-written scenario, as the players are going to come up with their own anyway, so why not run with that?
And I've decided it's actually useful to have memorized whole swathes of the Discworld novels, as it really helps in pulling out NPCs as needed and tossing off quick one-liners.
