Clearly this study was conducted in a 2nd-grade classroom.

Here is an in-between session info log.

Second Session now up.

First session log is now available on my blog!

This is the ongoing story of my psionics game, as edited from the online chat logs (one of the reasons I like chat games . . . every word of the session is preserved for posterity) by me, the GM. Instead of posting the text here and worrying about formatting and the long-term illegibility of...

How do you want characters made up? And how much backstory/RP info do you need?

I would potentially be interested in playing a Rogue if I could figure out what that time translates into here . . . how can it be -2.5 time zone? And doesn't that put you in the middle of the Atlantic? Azores or Iceland or Greenland? I think that'd translate to 3-7 here (Eastern Daylight...

Well, we just got started last week, and we had some problems with my wireless connection so we didn't get very far. However we're playing again tomorrow and I'm going to use the big T-1 line from work, so I shouldn't have the same problems again. Once we actually get something done, I'll blog...

Check out L.E. Modesitt's books if you're looking for ideas. Alignment-wise, Lawful and Chaotic have no meaning apart from the second part of alignment they are attached to. Lawful means that you adhere rigorously to some sort of structure . . . *what* structure is never laid out. It is...

Good, I was hoping it wasn't anything I hadn't already thought of. :) Like I said, I wasn't really expecting to find many takers. That being said, I think I've found a platform I might actually be willing to use (Fantasy Grounds), but I want to experiment with it a little more before I decide...

Thanks, I guess. I need to update my rules here anyway, because my existing players made their characters in a different way: I changed my mind before I found out they were still interested in playing. Why do you think my game premise won't have general appeal?

Revisions! Heya, sadly no responses yet, so here's what I'm doing: I've decided to move the game night to Thursdays. I'm actually going to be starting *tomorrow* with two players each playing two characters, but I'm still willing to bring in more people! If you're interested, let me know and...

What am I, chopped liver? I demand you acknowledge my contribution! :D

Bleh, I recently did a blog post about bad statistics. I sometimes feel a desperate need to yell "CORRELATION IS NOT CAUSATION!" for no apparent reason.

I like 3, in fact in the campaign I'm running psionic people can detect the presence of psionic power automatically, but I wouldn't recommend this for anyone else: it is supposed to reflect the fact that psionics are a group apart in the game I'm running. As for psionics going nova: I like this...

I only have one bit of concrete advice: get a Snuggly or other child-carrying-backpack thing. My parents got one and used it for both of my brothers and the baby is SO much happier on your back or stomach in that thing than lying down somewhere or in a stroller. Plus, they can breastfeed in...

I'm assuming the captain has to make some sort of rolls to maneuver the ship? If you want to keep the simplicity while still having crew quality be important, steal a mechanic from Exalted. In Exalted, when you are in mass combat the army just gives bonuses to the unit leader, instead of the...

I can recommend a strategy for choosing powers, if not the actual powers themselves: pick powers that complement her spells. If she can't get either Mage Armor or Shield, consider getting Force Shield or Inertial Armor. Likewise if she doesn't have access to transmutation spells, things like...

Well, if you have a computer and internet access it's free, you can also use AIM Express if you can't download the actual software because it's not your computer.
