It's nice! I'm not sure how people can be totally put off by the year....it's not as if it's a huge adjustment from a number of period pieces. Made a character and had my first scene.

Holy crap. After much insanity, I'm going to work on getting TDM back in-line and rolling forward. Apparently, the only time I actually get to MU* is when I am at work, and so I'll be able to work on rebuilding TDM's momentum on fri/sat of every week. i picked up a part time post and I babyait an empty, smallish building by my lonesome. It's kind of peaceful.

Anyway! If you played, or were interested, or had stories and ideas, let me know!

The only caveat is that I still don't really know 2.0 mage, at all, and could really use a staffer that does.

@Teto

!!!

Rey is (was) awesome, and I regret poofing from the game before more RP could be had.

AoA, meanwhile, folks got handed capitol ships, and I just sit over there trying to get two damn cyborg parts added to the +sheet and ignored. Thus, I poofed, as mentioned. Will track @Teto down.

@Alzie Make sure to supernal veil before you throw yourself off high rises. Don't worry, no one will think it's suspicious at all!

Fly! Like an Eagle! Into the Sky!

I was impressed by the whole experience thus far. When, in chargen, I hit the "backgrounds" section, my precise thoughts were: "Ah, backgrounds. My old nemesis. We meet again." Largely because in the past this is the step where nitpicking, anal retentive assholes tend to turn what should be a simple approval process into demanding instead a Ph.D.-grade thesis on the ins and outs of the setting (including huge amounts of non-documented bits).

Imagine my surprise when, upon seeing a staff member log in, I suddenly had a mail notification not ten minutes later with an approval. Not even a hint of a nit to be picked.

I like this place. Friendly players. Friendly staff. Fun setting.

@Lithium man sex console Captain, my data readings show that your libido is entering dangerous levels. Doctor Slutty McLovesalot requests your presence on the holodick.

@Misadventure Strikethrough.

@Chime

Thanks for the update! I had no idea there was planned maintenance going on. 😄

@TNP Ah, the teen's from the past/future/alternate timeline. The way the character rules are setup is that only one incarnation of the character can exist at the same time. We did this for OOC reasons mostly. So we wouldn't bring stressors to current players and staff. IE: 2-20 Wolverines would be a nightmare of 'No, I didn't do that. It wasn't me. Why do you keep screwing me over.' noise. Right along with MUX code naming and other potential issues. Bendis had his run with the teen X-Men and if a player wanted to bring one of them on as a character, sure. But only one incarnation at a time.

@Surasanji said in Historical Mu* - Looking for interested Staff:

I'd be interested in playing any such themed game. I'd be glad to offer a sounding board, as well- but would prefer not to be any kind of staffer.

Sounding boards certainly welcome, anyone interested in contributing even as a sounding board is just as welcome. I'll send the addie and wiki stuff to those interesting in contributing constructively.

Full up! If you're REALLY SUPER INTERESTED in a Numenera OTT run by yours truly, PM me. Bribery can be discussed, or I can add you to my 'if somebody drops out' list, either way. Thanks for the interest, folks.

@Cupcake Nah I just permanently freeze 'em unless the creator comes back, unless they specifically told me they wanna see them rostered. I think most people would feel weird about someone else playing their own creation so unless I hear otherwise that's what I go with.

@tek said in Zombie/Apocalypse Survival Game?:

It's a pretty dead game, no pun intended.

Sadly, it could never get the full support it needed to get it off the ground, and then the headwiz got sick. It had a lot of potential, just didn't pan out. I still have a char there.

Off the zombie track, but in the Apocalypse theme, Dropkick revived Battlestar Orion, if post-apoc with robots and space lasers is your thing - I've been playing there and having a lot of fun.

Just for anyone who doesn't know what I mean by Quirk, here's the wiki entry.

Suggestions on other potential systems to use would be useful and I've gotten at least one suggestions already. Thanks!

I try not to, but I make no promises.

I'll throw in agreement with @deadculture, Scenario 1 wounds like it could be a great setting. Usual the historical mu* caveat that deviations may abound (that most folks ignore anyone on historical mu*s to argue, cause historical minded folks enjoy arguing), it does have a lot of potential.

Sorry, should have posted that. Until I can get Mediawiki up on a dedicated server, it is http://akindofmagic.wikidot.com.
