The Protocol Game
Sat, Nov 1 from 12pm - 2pm
Creating, implementing, and enforcing protocol in O/p and D/s dynamics can be so challenging and frustrating — but it can be easier. Come learn about the Protocol Game and create, implement, and enforce 52 protocols in the next year. In this workshop, you’ll learn: how to create a “training wheel” of categories that will drive your protocol, how to implement new protocol so it actually sticks, and how to enforce new protocol with the minimum of effort. And you’ll walk away with all the tools to create your own Protocol Game.
