Alright I can't decide and decision paralysis is making me not do any actual work What do people like better? These court names:

• The Orion Court, Court of Curiosity, the Amber Court, often called hunters

• The Aquarius Court, Court of Hope, the Cerulean Court, often called Quixotics

• The Lilium Court, Court of Wonder, the Sanguine Court, often called roses

• The Draco Court, Court of Greed, the Amaranthine Court, often called golden axes

• The Andromeda Court, Court of Jealousy, the Chartreuse Court, often called green daggers

Or

• The Hungry Court, The Court of Greed. The Golden Axe. Hungry Courtiers. Gold Diggers (derogative).

• The Quixotic Court, The Court of Hope. The Shining Bridge. Hopeful Courtiers. Wishers/Wishful Thinkers (derogative).

• The Romantic Court, The Court of Wonder. The Blossoming Rose. Wondering Courtiers. Dons (derogative).

• The Jealous Court, The Court of Envy. The Green Dagger. Greedy Courtiers. Snakes (derogative).

• The Inquisitive Court, The Court of Curiosity. The Seeking Compas. Curious Courtiers. Cats (derogative).

It's still being tinkered with, as an fyi.

@Thenomain I'm going with emotions because when I think LA -- and specifically Hollywood where the changelings will hold power -- I think of several different emotions.

I've got some other suggestions and am looking at 3-5 emotional based but not seasonal based courts.

• The Hungry Court: The Court of Greed, always hungry for more. They will do whatever they can to consume and amass more. Be it wealth; material or otherwise, friends, fame, anything-- they are always hungry.

• The Quixotic Court: The Court of Hope, always optimistic that things will turn around. The Hopeful Courtiers believe in hope for the sake of hope, it doesn't really matter the outcome in the end-- spend all your money on a pyramid scheme, it'll be okay! You'll get rich!

• The Romantic Court: The Court of Wonder, always striving for some new advancement. They push for advancements in human and supernatural society. They seek to push boundaries and break records.

• The Jealous Court: The Court of Envy, always angry about what others have. They believe that others do not deserve the things they have. Assassins, enforcers, and bullies.

• The Inquisitive Court: The Court of Curiosity, always seeking something they don't know already. Always seeking some new experience, new feeling, new knowledge. Whether others know it already or not-- if it's new to them it must be good.

Here's some theme thing for Changeling:

@Olsson :

Meh + no code.

https://github.com/thenomain/GMCCG/tree/master/Z - Game Lines/Beast the Primordial

Cough cough cough.

Not saying I want to run it. Or even like it. But I think it's mostly complete.

So it is.

@ThatOneDude if you want to run it...

@Lithium said in Chronicles of Darkness Game: Seeking help:

I am curious about this, I am just wondering how much the God Machine itself is going to be involved in this.

Opening meta plot involves the God Machine.

@Olsson :

Meh + no code.

@skew said in Chronicles of Darkness Game: Seeking help:

I can do your wiki.

You are best skew.

Also, Thenocode might poop itself if you add all those games.

We'll find out!

@ThatOneDude said in Chronicles of Darkness Game: Seeking help:

Release the demons and let them run the place! >.>

I keep thinking that with CofD and Demon in Mu* that a conversion to the cWoD Demon (maybe using the rule book for conversion) would take that management overhead out of the equation. Demon would then be similar to the other spheres with less of the over head that comes with the new Demon.

You're saying words, but I don't know what any of them mean.

@Bobotron said in Chronicles of Darkness Game: Seeking help:

The obvious question, I guess, first...

Is this going to be a sandbox multisphere game, or is this 'starting metaplot' going to be something you're going to push/continue to develop as staff?

City of Angels is a Chronicles of Darkness MUX founded on the ideals of creating a cooperative chronicle. We are an "us against the darkness" game. We will open with a metaplot that will touch each sphere. We are not a sandbox game, nor a game that is meant to run forever. City of Angels will feature a string of metaplots (aimed to run no more than 5 or 6 months), connected to each other ramping up to a finale. This finale may be a year or several years after the opening of the game.

If metaplot and story driven games interest you, this game is for you! If a game with a story you know will end (someday!) interests you, this game is for you!

What's going to be different about this game to draw people in to help you with it other than ALMOST ALL THE THINGS?

I am not even thinking that hard. It's a game for story and fun times. I don't need to be unique. People will either play or they won't.

ETA: Man, I completely misread your second question-- what makes me different to draw people to help? mmm. I can't really say? It's a game for folks who want to do a cooperative story driven game rather than say a sandbox where people all do their own thing--

Also for some reason I can't see the bottom of this input window so this is gonna be weirdly typed :x

Alright folks, I'm slowly (very very slowly) tinkering at a thing. Looking to a multisphere Chronicles of Darkness/GMC/nWoD2.0 game. I'd like some folks who'd like to work with me to make things.

What I have:

• Setting: Los Angeles
• Grid: Partially dug but not dug LA grid. -- Looking to do the Greater Downtown Area, and South Central (GDA is build, SC is not).
• Code: Chargen is in, +roll, +sheet, etc should all be in. I gotta put in +resources/+equipment (I think), but it is in.
• Wiki: Got a pretty wiki, it needs a little work but it's pretty.
• Starting Metaplot: I have an idea, it'll need some work with all the various spheres.

What I want:

• FOR THE LOVE OF GOD SOMEONE HELP ME WITH THE GRID ;-;
• Wiki-- could use someone to help with character profiles, etc.
• Theme: Looking for folks for all of the various spheres to help with spheres.

What Spheres?

• Werewolf
• Vampire
• Mage
• Human
• Changeling (mebbe)-- chargen isn't finished for them as I'm trying to remember how I was gonna do contracts.

Not Spheres:

• Demon-- unless someone is going to do EVERYTHING for demon, and make it so it won't conflict with a game that is meant to have cross-sphere in it... No.

@skew who are you replying g too???

@WTFE i don't play with the reputed custodius player-- so you should be safe with me.

@kitteh Well, I've been playing her for like half an year now, so I'm having some good luck, yes.

I'm looking for someone to play my commoner's (Mirari) father--

http://play.arxgame.org/character/sheet/16139/

He's a fresh CG so he's as much as a blank canvas as he's written! Or if you don't want to play an old seasoned pirate, come chat with me about making something else for the Corsetina org!

@Scorn said in Basic Anomaly +Jobs Functions:

Maybe I'm crazy. I probably am. (Okay, definitely.) But I'm curious.. how difficult would it be to configure the list of displayed jobs (i.e. when you type +jobs) to include the name of the submitting player as well as bucket, job name, due date, assigned, status?

(Ssssh, I'm not supposed to post.)

But this is actually already a function. You just change your &jobs me=<stuff>. For example: &jobs me=BOTD will give you bucket, opened by, title, and date. &jobs me=BOTDS gives bucket, opened by, title, date, status.

Updated. (No I'm not coming back to actively post, just want my friends who happen to play on Arx to be able to find me. <3)

Hallo people!

I went through the trouble of having @EmmahSue reset my password so I could come give you guys an update rather than make Thenomain do it!

First off, jesus-fucking-christ thank you all for everything. You guys are utterly amazing and I'm touched and floored beyond belief. Thank you all, so much.

I was able to get a new ride relatively fast thanks to you guys. I only lost two weeks worth of work (I'm part time, don't have sick or vacation time, this hurts me a lot), it could have been losing my actual job. So you guys really did save my fucking life there.

Here's a general update on me:

Six days after getting the new car I thought I was having a stroke because the right side of my face was not working correctly. Leave work again, go to hospital. It's Bell's Palsy (at this point my doctor things I got a viral infection that wasn't visible on examine in either my ear canal or a salivatory gland because it's swollen and hurts a bit still), and I go on antiviral 5x a day. Then immediately get the flu and an ear infection, and miss another week of work.

The Bell's Palsy is slowly starting to get better, and I'm slowly getting over the flu.

Life's rough, but I'm still kicking.

Thank you for the people who have donated in the past couple of days: It really does help since I've missed so much work between the car accident and then the illnesses.

Since there's a few folks I only contact here, I thought I'd drop my contacts.

You can catch me at these places:
skype: sanguineblues
steam: cobaltblues
discord: cobaltasaurus

But I'm gone after this.

@Lithium Okay, cool. I was mistaken.

@Miss-Demeanor There hasn't been a lot of consistency is basically the name of the game. Part of the approval mess is my fault: I was like, "You know players can spend their own XP if we toggle in the code right?"

And then we do it, and turns out that whoever input werewolf in Reno didn't account for most XP spending. So Werewolf code is a mess that doesn't work the way it should in the book.

When I offered to change the system over from the half-mess it is to Thenomain's actual working werewolf code I got absolute silence. Even though it probably would have taken me only a couple of hours. I could have done it over a weekend and the code would be working correctly.

It's part of why I stepped down as Nekomata. That and other stuff hasn't been getting done and I don't want it to default to me.

What Lithium is also neglecting to say is the approval procedure. Unless I'm mistaken she/he is technically approved already, the XP spend and the notes are shit that gets taken care of after the character is +approved.

Granted, the approval process is as fucking backwards. But Lithium could be out an RPing. As far as the code is concerned Lithium is approved.
