    • RE: Scene Set Ideas

      So this sounds semi like something I was talking about recently with folks.

      The idea might be to seed random 'scenes sets' into the grid itself.

      Then idea came about descing an abandoned hotel. We have +rent code and the like already so it shouldnt be too hard to implement. You could set up a building/area/whatever and do your +rent or +explore or something and it makes you a temproom/brings you to a room. What that new room will have is a description of the area, and a small randomized lists of possible encounters to spark the imagination.

      It is not something as complex as a full PRP, but a way to give certain areas some more flavor, to help lubricate imaginations, give some minor threats to urban exploration, find haunted areas, generally little things seeded in specific places to encourage RP and lighten the load for spontanius creativity.

    • RE: Health and Wealth and GrownUp Stuff

      @Macha I start Therapy in 8 days. Wheee! And I know plenty that do therapy, no shame, all the awesome.

      People that give you shit for taking care of your mental health are morons, it'd be like making fun of someone going to the doctor for burns or a broken leg or because they were stabbed. Oh you need a prosthetic? You need bandaids? You need help? What a loser! It's the same idiots who will make fun of a fat person at the fucking gym. Flip em off, and continue doing what is good for you.

      @Testament Yeah all that 'watching peoples skin turn color in real time' shit gave me all the skeevies. I blame some Spiderman and Venom novel involving radioactive isotopes i read as a kid for hammering in those dangers.

    • RE: X-Cards

      @Thenomain Now i was just thinking about official PRP's, the extension that this could just be used to X-Card out other peoples character traits... sounds like a step way too far. (not that that was what you were suggesting, just a thought that crossed my mind re: smoking)

      This PRP has been rated for mature Audiences only, may contain Nudity, Sexual Situations, Goreand Murder.

      Player: You wanna join anyway but have a problem with one of those things: Hey ST, 75% of this plot intrigues me but descriptions of gore are a big nono for me, when we approach that scene can we make an excuse for my PC not to be in the room, but allow me to move on from there?

      ST: Why certainly, how about when it comes tot hat gore I emit to the rest of the players and let you be uninvolved or only give you a vague detail of 'bad stuff in there'.

      Is this too hard?

    • RE: Good TV

      @Auspice Preattchjet is my all time fave author and yes, i am noticing similar things.

      I also noticed that i think I married Anathema Device, or at least the Goth Librarian version of her... which caused me to pause the show at this epiphany to tell her i married the person from my favorite book.

    • RE: X-Cards

      @surreality said in X-Cards:

      We do already kinda have this as a 'page the GM' kind of thing, if someone wants to make a quiet exit without speaking up to all and sundry.

      p GM=This is hitting an RL limit for me due to <X>. I'd like an out this round, via <Reasonably Possible Y, ex: 'hears a noise outside to investigate and will meet up with the party later', 'is knocked out and carried home by the others', 'gets an emergency call from Bob and must go', etc.> if at all possible.

      So what if we standardized something like this in game. Just made it part of the culture. A Player should feel comfortable saying 'Hey, this is something I am sensitive to and would like to find a way for me and my PC to not interact it.' and the GM/ST/DM Simply smiles, understands, gives them an out, or something else to do in the meanwhile, and every opportunity to rejoin once past said impasse after. You guard the hall! Your babysitter fell through, so you gotta hunt the monster another day. With 0 stigma.

      Tangent I mean some folks will have to come to grips that their yum is not everyone else's yum. And that if your yum is someone else's yuck, that there is nothing wrong with that either and you dont have to push your yum on them. But also that if their yum is your yuck, you don't get to demean them for it either. I married a Vegetarian 12.5 years ago, I promise that it's okay to still be great friends while not liking the same things. End tangent

      Sex mountain in my head looks like,, a pair of rounded peaks, perhaps with a rock, almost engorged spire between em. Maybe listing to one side a bit.
