I think on some events everyone may have to roll, while just one person
will be enough in some instances.
I'll let my players organise themselves. They are quite good at that.
That would give very different challenges at each scene/round. Survival
a scene 1, climbing for scene 2, fear or magic on 3, some fight on 4, etc.

That's my experience also. I hope each round will be different. EC tend
to be (IMG at least) 'get the related ability, augment it, get help from
others, then fight'. I very rarely see change in abilities during a
contest. My bad.

Yeah, that's something I like in HQ. You can pace it as you wish.

My wike gave me her authorisation to take her character as prisoner.
I'll try!
