In Coldstone, is it possible to have the player chose from several characters to start with? They would each have different stories and live in the same "world" but would start in different places. So it would be like a whole bunch of games rolled up into one, with one world and "bigger" story that they are all apart of. Or would I need to make 18 different applications and have them download them piecemeal?

Short answer: Yes, what you want to do is possible. You can also let players create their own characters,

Why was I told repeatedly before that doing this would require a lot of herd work to accomplish in a minor way(ie, character pic changes, teleportation location decided by variable, etc.)? You make it sound like they've made it a lot easier, and that players can make up thier own character(I was told that they could not, exept maybe simple things like player name).
Hmm, I guess I'm falling behind again...

Because it WILL require a lot of hard work. I never said it wouldn't. But, the option is there for people willing to do that work.

Thanks. I'm not afraid of a little work.
