    Chicago Gameday 24 was November 14th: the aftermath!

    Well, frak me gently with a chain gun! Pls put me down for PM 6 (the Pool). {While 404 looks great, I've been wanting to see how The Pool plays for much longer. So, Reid, please consider this a request for next GD - backed by bribe of tasty beverage of choice.} Actually, pls scratch that -...

    Chicago Gameday 24 was November 14th: the aftermath!

    RSVP for YT: Breakfast AM Slot 1 - saving a seat for "a friend." Soft seat, though - if they don't show, there's still a seat. Then again, there's always a seat at the table for me... PM slot 1 - Diaspora (FATE) Danke schoen

    Planning for ENWorld Chicago Gameday 24 (Saturday, November 14th)

    Milliseconds of practice, my friends... Actually, my connection didn't give me the usual hassles I have with ENworld... nothing more than that.

    Planning for ENWorld Chicago Gameday 24 (Saturday, November 14th)

    Mr Johnson Must Pay: Shadowrun/Don't Rest Your Head Actually, no I won't. I don't like saying that I have a hard limit of potential players (everyone should have a place at the table, yo). And ADW isn't a great fit for the type of story I have in mind. And I'm not sure how much cognitive...

    Chicago Gameday XXIII is July 18th: SIGN UP!

    No small thanks to CMG Mark's pimpage of me. Danke schoen, and all that. quick AP: I think it worked especially well as a small group - more time for character interaction between sanity-blasting EMP weapons testing. Shannon came in with massive discomfort but seemed suitably distracted from it...

    Chicago Gameday XXIII is July 18th: SIGN UP!

    Since it's me chummer Daniel who spoke up first, I'll alter the default setting a wee bit... I'm thinking SmartWands and organ-legging on Knockturn Alley. ;)

    Chicago Gameday XXIII is July 18th: SIGN UP!

    A good thought - since the timeline of "PX" runs from about 3pm, it'd make life a bit easier to run it in near real-time... So lets do that: AM slot 4 becomes PM slot X. Anyone who wants to help me casually break things after breakfast, let me know. If there are no takers, I'll be a walk-in...

    Chicago Gameday XXIII is July 18th: SIGN UP!

    Cancellation-Fest '09: WTF? I have a draft of a "young magicians at a wizarding school" game that I could bring along with the intent of having experienced players such as ourselves trying to break it to bits in the afternoon. The system is very social and very simple - my 4 year old does well...

    Chicago Gameday XXIII is July 18th: SIGN UP!

    Breakfast and Afternoon slot #3 (Mystery Game) for me, please. {Also, slightly tweaked text, new list of pregen PCs and artwork in the original planning thread. Sorry I got it up late...}

    Chicago Gameday XXIII Planning Thread

    Apparently, storms bring out edits as well as worms. I've a quick blurb up in the original post, but I'll probably tighten it up a bit before saying it's done. I'm also trying to figure out how to add some of the other attachments that I posted for previous gamedays - EN isn't letting me put up...

    Chicago Gameday XXIII Planning Thread

    semi-spoiler: I liked Classroom Deathmatch. I also liked Panty Explosion and Battle Royale. I didn't like the rules system - it just wasn't as collaborative as I'd like. Rarely do you eliminate a peer on your own: you bring friends and have a boot party... CD also operates at an individual...

    PX Poker Night PX Poker Night Nemesis rules (attached - same ORE basis as Reign, Monsters & Other Childish Things, Wild Talents, Godlike, yadda yadda yadda). 5-6 players (but could take up to 11), randomized dice-based chargen at the table (I'll have pregens on hand, since doing more than 5...

    Chicago Gameday XXII is March 21st: SIGN UP!

    How I Suck AM Game 4 needs to be cancelled - I just found out that I'm going to be completely unavailable on the 21st. Mercifully, only 1 player is effected at this point. Sorry Kelleris - I was looking forward to gaming with you again.

    No flag from Google, ClamAV finished it's scan with 0 result... I'd hazard to say it's fixed. Question is now: wha'happened? Meanwhile, I've a tiny bit of tweaking on my game blurb... but it's 90% done. w00t!

    Speaking of chainsaw... Any reason why Google is flagging dicegoblins.com as malware? I mean, some have the pointy teeths that make them soooooooo wuvable... but WTF?!?!

    Highschool Deathmatch You are the leaders of various cliques in your high school, competing for dominance and power. Will it be the Junior Plastics who destroy the Young Republicans? Will the Stoner/Math Club alliance stand up against the combined might of the Motorheads and Jocks? And who are...

    Chicago Gameday XXI was November 8th: Aftermath...

    Well, next time out I won't be running Scooby characters - I'm hoping that I can run either Reign or A Dirty World, which means that char.gen will happen at the table (since it's a single roll with some lookup). I've a couple of BRP scenarios from back-in-the-day that would be easily adapted to...

    Chicago Gameday XXI was November 8th: Aftermath...

    Now that EN has stopped logging me off as I type, I think I should explain this comment: I started late. I deviated from my original character assignments. My rules briefing ran overlong. I did something for effect that caused some raised eyebrows on a meta-level... Despite all of this, I...
