I had such a good time. Thanks for putting together and running a great game! I wrote a little bit about it on my journal. Take care! George

Thank you! Tell Samantha that she ran - and designed! - a wonderful game. Pulling cards out of a Animal Crackers jar is priceless. I'll be sure to ask permission if I ever want to borrow that game mechanic. EDIT: I gave the game a rave review here: http://zoatebix.livejournal.com/29577.html...

That... was superior.

Expecting some sheep, eh? At least you weren't expecting a game about the campaigns of Gnaeus Julius Agricola :p

I love new games, and this sounds fascinating! I'd like to sign up, please.

I was tempted by the siren song of a game I'd never played before Last Spring. Technically, though, I guess I've only ever GMed SotC...

If you're the superstitious-type, you could bring your own set of four Fudge dice (or make your own!). Barring that, I actually carry around a box of 20 fudge dice for occasions like this :p Truthfully though, I think Psion will provide everything we need. By the way- sign me up, please...

Giant In the Playground Games :(

Hey all! I just wanted to let you know that there are five free games awaiting readers, players, suggestions, comments, hecklers, etc. over at Summer 2008 Game Challenge. With luck, we'll have some more free games that didn't make the deadline showing up in the "No Designer Left Behind"...

Essentially, we were ready to start, but we wanted a little more time than 24 hours :p If you have time to make a game, that's great. If you can show up to heckle cheer us on, we'll welcome you with open arms. That goes for everyone!

http://go-play.org/ A link, a very palpable link. (green means go plus the universal "play" symbol from consumer electronics= go play)

Visit us at http://summer2008rpgchallenge.ning.com/ So, influenced by the "start at any time" spirit of 24 Hour RPG, I convinced a few friends to all make their own RPGs in a format similar to Game Chef. Somehow, I got motivated enough to make a dedicated site for it. Its URL appears above...

Ah, the age-old Sorting Algorithm of Evil problem :p If playing with 4e's pace of advancement is something you find interesting (and the GSL isn't too onerous about that kind of thing) go for it! I do think Alzrius is on to something, though.

"Witch" as a gender-neutral term worked quite well in both Arcana Unearthed/Evolved and The Mountain Witch.

Raise Thread! That's good to hear. Reading the HEX rules, and even one of the examples of play, turned me off to the game, even though game designers with their own Pulp games have talked it up (I'm 99% sure I'm thinking of SotC co-author Fred Hicks showing some love for HEX). And since...
