MODERATORS
One that felt most silly to me was "does your world have spinoff adventures and one-shots or is it one big story", because this question assumes
A) I have "my" world
B) I always use that world
C) That there is a "main" story
D) Any deviation from that "main" story is a "spinoff"
E) That one-shot adventures have anything to do with any of the above points
There's definitely a version of that question I could answer, but it would be more like one of these (and I'm honestly not sure which the question means):
"Does your group play one continuous campaign or a variety of episodic scenarios?"
"Do you always use the same homebrew setting when you run campaigns?"
"Does your game have a single primary story, or are players free to pursue their own objectives and deviations?"
