    • RE: Good TV

      @GreenFlashlight Not specifically, but when you can manage planet wide communications with any handheld device, is localized wifi worth mentioning other than as a downgrade.

      I just want to know why people send garbled video communications without a transcript of the language repeated a thousand times in the transmission in case it gets garbled.

      EVH made me sad as well, though part of me imagines the millions of fans and millions of air guitars and all that and I think that is quite the fanfare to go out on.

    • RE: The ADD/ADHD Thread (cont'd from Peeves)

      I think it ignores the vast lore and timing of hunting animals, as well as the dominate source of food being gathering from known plants in predictable locations.

      I am a pill like that.

      You know how dumb the average person is? Half the population is dumber.

    • RE: MUSH conflict... sad face?

      As for the people who will dislike you, be unwilling to communicate why, yet tell everyone and try to get them to go along:

      fuck those guys.

      That's short for leave them to their shitiness, make an attempt to nudge those who have been swayed by them once, and find folks who groove on what you offer.

      Or as I have been known to say "There is no pair of tits worth putting up with this shit."

      @Ghost said in MUSH conflict... sad face?:

      There also seems to be a number of people out there who can be fairly vocal about how great they and theirs are, how they don't believe there to be bullies, cliques, etc, and I've always found that somewhat telling.

      I'm feeling some Pelican Brief action coming on.

    • RE: How to move beyond a concept?

      I have a personal wiki. I jot down ideas on a page or two, use tags to get some idea of what a given page is about.

      Sometimes an idea is more about how to approach something like player involvement or a generic way to handle resources. Those things go on their own page, but I make sure to keep a link up.

      I also keep a small number of blue stickie note with me, and write down anything I think of, even if I've written it down before.

      Its those stand out things that shine or draw you or excite you that you want to capture and try to retain.

      I thought commentary went in another thread?

      Is there a link to previous sexist/racist game offerings? I do not track alt names well.

      @hedgehog

      Those people will fade away in a year. Your efforts have more persistence. Ignore them, the moderators understood your message and your history. They are the ones you are accountable to.

      My opinion at least.

    • RE: Vietnam War MUSH

      What are the aspects of the Viet Nam war or the World Wars that would be presented?

      Under supported troops?
      Conscripts?
      A major power in a proxy war?
      Unpopular war at home?
      Atrocities?
      Supporting a civil war?
      War amidst a different people?
      Heightened media reporting of warfare?
      Asymmetrical warfare?
      War as a crucible for social issues?

      The sci-fi comic Alien Legion sort of covered some these situations.

    • RE: M&M 3E Setting Poll

      Less easy, but often part of newer game designs: allow a few rounds of player suggestions and voting to create a history for the setting.

      You might get a cool aspect to the setting that way.

    • RE: M&M 3E Setting Poll

      Maybe consider using the setting for maps and flavor etc, but eliminate the published canon of super activities and make a custom one.

      If no one has mentioned: The Craft Sequence.

      After reading the first book (I have the omnibus) I declared it the Kill Six Billion Demons of words.
