I'm a bit confused on the action economy laid out. I understand the one major and one minor per post, but as far as the points system... do major and minor actions have different point costs? Including between them (like certain major actions cost more than other major actions?). Is 1 time point equivalent to 1 hour or so? What would the benefits of choosing a role that has to sleep for longer be versus one that has a shorter sleep requirement? And how well do you think this system would include collaborating with other players? 

I still think it has the potential to be fun. I would also consider maybe expanding the role options or making them more open ended.

Apologies for the late reply, but thank you for the detailed thoughts!

Yes, each action will have point costs which will be stated in the GM post, generally, Major actions would cost more than Minor actions, though characters may have skills, equipment and consumable items that may turn the situation in their favor.

I'll admit, the time system is still something I'm considering, am thinking of using a separate stat instead to indicate fatigue. Generally, the benefit of a character that needs less sleep is the opportunity to do more actions instead of needing to spend time to rest, which makes it more likely for you to influence people or discover clues.

Regarding collaboration, it is, technically a "competition" of sorts, though there is nothing stopping the group from looking for a compromise where the reward can be shared. And there is also more than one way characters can get their goal, as there are NPCs in the gathering they can influence to further their ends (this is me meta-gaming the pay-off as a GM to make sure that all players find a satisfying ending for your contributions to the story without diminishing the main reward).

Edit:
There can be more role-options, and they can be open-ended, would just need to consider how to make a balanced skillset and one that fits the setting's vibe. Very open to ideas and collaborative worldbuilding, of course!

I'll be posting the revised system within the week if there's still interest in this.
