    • RE: Would a meta-shadowrun game be fun?

      Consider having Dirt age out, either over time, or after anything in particular is over and done.

      EG: A Job helped win an election. Either 3 months, a year, something later on it won't matter that much.
      OR
      After this news cycle is over, or the elected person is no longer in any office, the Dirt is of less value.

      I would suggest that some mooks are highly loyal, naively loyal (loyal until they learn some lesson), treacherous (looking to betray), mercenary (clear that money is how they stay loyal) etc.

      I would also suggest that some have a rating for being easy or hard to take out due not to their stated ratings, but because they have people who will follow up.

      You could consider the agents, or teams, to have Values, where missions that promote (or are spun to promote) the value are given higher loyalty, and where if it comes out that Other Jobs promote or hinder these values they are more or less likely to hide or share their Dirt as well.

    • RE: RL things I love

      At first I read that as making $6/hour, and I was like "wow that's more than QA ever gets!"

      (I kid!)

      Grats!

    • RE: Footballs!

      I would think this would default to they own it. Taking it, even if it is out of their control, is theft, especially as every has seen the events occur. This is not a salvage operation.

    • RE: Feedback request, round #1

      Detailed examples are a good idea in my opinion.

      Summaries of general trends at the top, and mentioning that these examples come from years of play across many games should alleviate concerns that this is about bashing some other specific game, or that these things are problems here.

      Just so it's clear: This doesn't sound like a MU*. It doesn't sound like there is a lot of RP going of between characters. They will be in info wars with one another, and involvement with one another would be compromise security and their bosses trust in them.

      It's a war game, or a board game.

      Reminds me of the video game line Majesty, but with social karma between heroes and crown.

      Have you considered Sithrak Tracts? They are from Oglaf (completely not safe for work but also completely hilarious).

      I'm pretty sure pillowfort is a loaded term for some folks here.

    • RE: Good TV

      I was really hoping that all of that was a clever character growth arc for her, and not some dumbed down obvious version for the "modern"
      audience.

      @Cobaltasaurus said in What Do You Collect?:

      Sorrows.

      You can only do this if you plan to make a collection like Edward Gorey's alphabet.

    • RE: Players from Bourbon and Blood, Shadows of Isildur

      I wonder how "functional" a players bitching board would be on a game specific set of forums.

      Seems like a good idea.

      Pardon the sexist language please

      Well, 3 inches of height and some hair sounds critical. Especially if it was 5 feet of hair. Tolkien, in his grave, rolling.

      Put extenders on all your fingers, you'll adapt to the new length and type away.

      Just trying to understand my fellow human beings as filtered through text on the internet.

      Think of it as extremely defensive against word use, and implications there of. I was raised by lawyers wolves.

      And there are the answers.

      Yes, you cannot say this phrase and be taken to be sincere, even if as @Coin says they care only about your intent.

      Ta da.

      Look up the way using niggardly ended a government officials career sometime.

      Thanks all !
