What a wonderful thread.

Would you guys say the advice of “Elide the action sometimes” is a form of say yes? I’m talking about the idea where you leave a battle half finished and jump to the end, or maybe a month later. Not always so galling either. Maybe everyone camps down for the night and the MC jumps to the next evening.

When you move the fiction around in time and reframe a situation, aren’t you in someways saying yes? Or atleast you are identifying an upcoming lull where playing the moves out might be boring so you’re jumping forward to the heart of the conflict.
