Arx, now with 120% more rap battles.

People know nazis are bad. We fought a war about this. The whole world was in on it.

Please. I'm middle-class, white, and male. If I say something, it's the truth regardless of factual content.

This just in: People Occasionally Act Like Dicks. News at 11.

For those that don't understand my remark, I'll refer you to this helpful wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Treachery_of_Images

I don't even care about the accuracy of that story. I just really enjoyed reading it.

Amen to that, on both counts. I have only so many hours in the day - between children, work, and other real-life commitments... I don't have time to wait around for people to be ready for a five hour raid.

RP being different, of course. I'm not always expected to act every second of a scene. If I need to pee, I can pee. If I need to let the dogs out/in I can do that. If the child pops up and demands attention 90% of people would understand.

For the record, I call United Statesians 'Lower Canadians'.

@royal

If an In Character action would have no entertainment value for anyone but myself, I don't do it. The character makes excuses, and the like, because fun is more important than 'progress' or whatever.

someone reading thru the books and grabbing buzz words and listing them out

Isn't that a WoD game plot in a nutshell, though?

My resolution is to give even less of a fuck next year than I did this year.

@Ganymede Yes but is it an adult rel-... no, nope.

@secretfire Okay now I want a Deus Ex (the original)-based MU.

Making a complete game before release is SO 2002.

@Cupcake Don't worry, lass. Scotland thinks they are. Go there, you'll be among kin.

It's not necessarily 'advancement' per se, but definitely adaptation that I find to be important. If I make a social character that likes writing letters and so on, and events transpire to make them an outlaw on the run and all that, I'd want to be able to invest in some sort of combat or stealth or something along those lines.

A character whose skills and abilities are the same from the beginning of the story to the end haven't really had a chance to grow. So there'd definitely need to be some mechanism whereby IC effort = +sheet alteration/advancement.
