@Seamus Yeah, I only even suggested Tokyo BECAUSE it has a write up in Vampire, Werewolf, Beast AND Mage.
I'm thinking, unless someone has a very compelling argument, that Los Angeles is best, because of the diversity, both ethnic and financial. And it lets people play fucking movie stars like they wanna.
Going to be starting a skype call in about 15 minutes, if anyone wants in, let me know

You have my attention.
Here's a thing we are thinking is a Good Idea.
The humans can't know, that is bad for business. But the various Monster Races? Many of them know enough to interact peacefully. A mage can know that Kindred have Covenants, a Created knows that werewolves are tied to their moon sign, etc. They don't likely know the inner workings of the local Ordo academy, and THAT is a secret, but it's easier on so many people if there is an OOC (and IC) agreement that keeps things chill
If you are interested, please drop here or via PM:

Setting Rationales
LA: Everyone knows LA, it is a hub of popular culture. It also has the broadest grouping of ethnic and racial groups, and a great disparity of rich and poor. Also, keeps with my personal theme of "places seen in Fallout games".
Baltimore: I know it pretty damn well, it is a dark and violent city, great for Chronicles. Also has a lot of older (for the US) structures and history.
London: It is an old city, full of history, and at least it is different.
Tokyo: It is the only city described in every Chronicles 2nd Edition book
Possible Sphere Development Leads:
Demon - Coin
Vampire - eerie-smile?
Werewolf - Seamus?
Beast -
Mage -
Promethean - tragedyjones
Changeling -

Major Decisions for early development:
Setting
Alt policies
IC Reality: God-Machine
IC Reality: Arcana and Supernaturals
OOC Reality: Full Bore 2nd Ed? (yes plz)
I was mostly joking with London because I know fuck-all about it, I will be holding a meeting in the next week or so with interested parties.
Setting poll:
Easy: Los Angeles
Medium: Baltimore
Hard: London
Extreme: Tokyo
Less flirting with @Coin more srs discuss.
I need someone who knows Beast and someone who knows Changeling and someone who knows Demon.

@tragedyjones What about Possessed and Immortal?!
I will Fite u
I will happily pay coders and wiki-people. Everything else is just various degrees of bullshit.
@surreality said in Interest/Volunteer Check: Major Multisphere Chronicles of Darkness:
...sigh. You know what I'm in for on it already. Poke me when you are at the point at which you need a wiki.
ONLY if you let me buy you food on a stick.
Y'all knew it was coming. Y'all knew.
Let's get the Elephant in the room first and shoot him in the head: I am (in my own mind at least) p great at getting a game up and running. It is my thing. I am not so great (in anyone's mind) great at being the sole proprietor and caretaker of a game.
So.
I think it would be awesome to have a full-on crossover MUSH for the Chronicles of Darkness 2nd Edition Gamelines.
For reference, they would be:
Here is the vague idea - We get a core group of design staff and those willing to do administrative work. I would, ideally, use @Thenomain's code because it is nearly complete for all lines and he makes it nice and user-friendly for staff.
The goal: A multi-sphere CofD game set in a persistent, shared setting with a focus on enabling crossover with a minimum of incident and drama, while allowing the various gameline themes to maintain as intact as a MUSH environment can enable. I am willing to front the cash for the server and domain, as well as be a major hand in development, particularly in the realm of the overall setting and Promethean. I can be reached here, or at sean.creef on Skype.

Also I will eventually build a multisphere game,
This statement is directly contradicted by the conditional clause that followed:
when I have a strong volunteer base to handle administration. And who knows the games I dont.
Well look what we have here folks. A volunteer.

@tragedyjones It's because you're a flakey motherfucker.
I am. But I am just one flake in the blizzard of this community.
I'm beginning to think @ThatOneDude doesn't like me.
@nyctophiliac said in Status: City of Fog and Blood?:
I have no idea if this is in the right category. If not, please move me!
Any one know what happened to City of Fog and Blood? Anyone play there? Is it still active? Maybe it hasn't opened yet, or...?
Should probably be dead, dude. I opened CoFaB in like, 2013? Maybe even 2012? And then it was run by Barracuda and his wife, and I assume they aren't still doing that.

Guys I didn't expect @Sonder to be all "yasss throw out all the old and change everything".
Your mom is funny.
Even if you are right, and I think you have a point, it'd be really inappropriate for a game's direction to be influenced by people, many of whom aren't even playing there, on a separate forum. I'd hope FC's people are talking about new, interesting directions to take their MU* in but this isn't the place for it.
What are you the appropriate police?
Guys I didn't expect @Sonder to be all "yasss throw out all the old and change everything". But making a funny* thread costs me nothing.

@icanbeyourmuse said in An open letter to Fallcoast:
@tragedyjones You should just make another game with Geist, Possessed, etc updated to 2E. I actually like Wolfbooded for the new books.
Bleh. Effort.
