This is pretty good advice. I've sort of stumbled into it a few times.

Sometimes I'd be like "ok so here's the room. Blah blah blah details. What're you doing?"

Andy will be like "I'm gonna check out that detail"

I'll get like "cool. You all see Andy head over to that detail. Good?" And sort of pause there for a beat to see if anyone wants to interrupt or preempt.

I think the linked article is a generally better method as it's more complete, but I think mine is a little faster. Especially if you have a couple passive players.

A good article about making sure all the players actions are resolved in a sensible order. By hearing what everyone plans to do before starting to resolve things you can avoid lots of potential problems.

I must admit that this isn't something I tend to do, I tend to run games without a defined initiative system so just ask my players what they are doing and everyone gets a chance as we go around, this could potentially lead to situations where someone was planning a set up action but another player got there first but my group are pretty happy to say hang on a second it makes more sense for me to do the thing first then you go after so we've never really had a problem with it.

I can see it helping if you had a less familiar gaming group or players who were less happy speaking up when it's not "their turn".

"i look"

dm:"you see nothing"

"I leap ..."
