@simplications

Didn’t you just disavow us with a dramatic exit not even a page ago? Is this one of those “I wish I knew how to quit you” situations? Get in or get out but don’t stand there yelling through the screen door.

@Ghost

Yeah, that’s kind of the vibe I’m getting too, to be honest.

I read the logs. I see nothing wrong. I see two people wanting to play an edgy romance with broken people, and two players who were clearly consenting to what was going down.

Apparently, out of the blue, Isaac feels uncomfortable — even though he continues with the RP and even suggests going further than what was previously suggested?

There’s definitely something missing here.

Pure Conjecture Follows

I will say that during my times with Cobalt, it would not at all surprise me if what went down was something closer to this:

Cobalt is interested in Isaac. Cobalt expresses that interest. Isaac reciprocates but is also doing so with various other people, which Cobalt finds out about and takes offense to. Cobalt confronts Isaac, who throws @Macha under the bus by saying how he thought it would be fine but now it’s all weird and stuff, and so Cobalt instantly goes on the offensive, declaring him an undeserved victim of harassment and removing the impediment to her amorous desires problem player. She then finds out about others, and suddenly her ‘victim of harassment’ is ‘on a ban watchlist for harem building’, because that’s the only way to save face at that point.

This dude is very clearly not a victim of anything, unless you count unusual verb tense choices. There’s definitely something more. And, as I said, the above is pure conjecture, but it tracks with historical precedent, so it would not at all surprise me.

Take it all with a huge grain of salt. I think that sufficient receipts have been provided to disprove the theory that he was the innocent victim of harassment and that Macha is some kind of monstrous boogeyman, personally, but you do you.

You should change the sharing permissions so that anyone with the link can read them, rather than requesting access. Better form and all.

This is an amazing start! Happy that people have a Blade Runner game to play on. It's a great universe with a lot of rich lore in it, and I look forward to seeing what you all do with it in the future! Keep up the energy, it sounds like everyone is having a great time!

Anyhow, I concur. Finding a game where the people on top aren't sacks of shit isn't easy.

I feel like this isn't fair to a bunch of the new MUs coming out now or recently as a result of Ares. That's unfailingly a great crowd in my experience.

I am glad that this has been your experience, but it hasn’t been the experience of quite a few others. I think that is a more than fair statement.

E-mail confirmation seems to be working sporadically, if at all. Trying to figure out what's going on with that.

In the meantime, in the interests of fairness, I've set the forum to allow unverified users to post and reply in pretty much all the categories that verified users can.

If you've been waiting for a confirmation e-mail and didn't get one, chat me up and we'll work out how to verify that you're you.

Until then, back under the hood I go.

This sounds like an interesting game but also: your username amuses me for Reasons.

Dibs.

Jason David Frank, 49. Possibly my favorite PR.

Whaaat? Goddamit. I had such a teenage crush on him.

Very sad. I’m sorry for your loss. :’(

@chibichibi

I don't think it is a bad idea, but I would keep the roster small. I would also allow players to roster their own PCs for later or for others' use.

Ehnnnn. I would disagree with Gany on this one. I’ve never seen rosters done well in WoD. It usually starts a lot of drama and causes a lot of interpersonal friction. If players need examples just put up a few example sheets with backstories, don’t make them full-on rosters and DEFINITELY don’t let other people pick up someone else’s PC.

@hedgehog said in Real World Peeves, Disgruntlement, and Irks.:

My dad just died. Cascade of complications after what's usually a pretty low key procedure for his COPD. I'm devastated for my (step) mom, but also relieved as this has been a quarter century of decline since his diagnosis. You never want to hear a parent wailing in pain. And they lost the dog a couple months ago so she hasn't even got him for solace. And it's both hers and my birthdays next week.

I’m sorry for your loss.

@Scissors said in WebMU still in use?:

Thanks for the replies guys.

Then maybe it's not a WebMu issue. It may be some changes on my corporate IT side that now blocks WebMu connections.

I've tried Duckclient but my corporate firewall is definitely blocking that.

I'll give Mushclient on a thumb drive a try, though!

BeipMU also works on a drive. I had it running nicely as well as keeping the logs on it.

By “something different” do you mean scrapping the existing theme, I.e. university and alternate watchtowers and whatnot in favor of book mechanics, or something different?
