I keep all of what happened in one journal, and everything else on the computer. All the maps, the schedules, and the character sheets using a gurps character sheet program (forgot what its called), because I run it through discord using a text format. I hardly plan anything besides what's in my head.

Ive been trying to use different ways to plan besides just pure vibes. like using joplin, or some wiki format or even trying to do use a mindmap? But alas most of what I do is simulating what I believe would happen and keeping character sheets of possible enemies on hand.

So, I'm curious, what do you do?

Lol! Yeah, im really trying to work on making the world alive. For my next campaign Im in the worldbuilding and planning phase right now, and Im planning to have the PCs be a mercenary group, who can be hired by various factions. But in between missions Im going to run a faction game with other players, so that the factions naturally evolve and actually hire players for their goals, so that the missions and world feel real. If all goes well anyway, I'm crossing my fingers lol

I hope it goes well 🫡🫡god speed! that sounds really cool lol I'd be too scared to try something like that. I like running smaller scale games
