@Sunny Oh yeah, I deleted the line where I put that there may be that expectation somewhere by I'm not going to feel bad about ignoring it because it's terrible and the people that want it are bringing great shame to their family.

@Auspice said in Getting Young Blood Into MU*'ing:

Does it suck if no one acknowledges you? Sure. But I also, personally, don't give a shit if a couple people don't. So long as I have someone/thing to respond to (and that people I specifically address react), I'm good.

This. I've absolutely been in scenes where absolutely no one acknowledges my presence. Directed statements and actions just no responded to like they never happened. It sucks.... but really, I don't think the expectation is there to react to everyone if what they do doesn't involve you in any way. If someone hands you a soda, react to it.. but if they hand Sally a can of pop you really don't need to acknowledge it unless it was meant to be your can of coke.

Book wise he would be downhill side of his 40s at the start of the series so the casting is a little young and not as weathered/grizzled but guess that's for the costuming people to figure out.

I expect there to be a lot of exposition on the One Power... hopefully done better than how Wu Assassin handled their training montage.

Should have put a link

WoT has cast Lan.

My only complaint is he is too young. I was really hoping for Byron Mann after seeing him in Wu Assassin

My town switched to a new trash collection system.

It had been you had to buy special bags and they would only take the special bags.

As of yesterday it was you could buy whatever bags you want, but had to also buy tags to put on them, but they would still take the special bags if people used them.

Stores stopped selling the special bags. I could not find anywhere that sold the tags. From what i could tell driving in to work and seeing who had trash out to be collected only about 1 in 10 houses are successfully getting trash picked up today.

@Ominous said in Dark Crystal game?:

I agree; however, the number of people wanting to play WoD is a large known quality. Some other IP or original setting is an unknown and likely smaller quantity.

I'd argue that the number wanting this is much smaller than people think. there is, however, a large quantity of people willing to play on one.

But look at all the complaints from WoD players about other players not knowing the rules or theme or whatever. My hypothesis is there is a large group of players that frequent WoD games that really just want a blended fantasy game set in modern/near modern time with a large player base and some guidelines.

Not that this would help a Dark Crystal game. I've not seen the new series and only watched the movie for the first time the other day. It was alright, but meh.

Is that like the areola and lipstick color thing?
