    New Website There is a newer website then the first I posted and has a much cleaner look and more easy to navigate, though it will sell the same product as before. I appreciate all those visiting the last website and would appreciate more if everyone who visited the last website would visit...

    Mutating a successful deck

    There is an enchantment called Haunted Crossroads from MMask that works slightly better then the Volrath's Stronghold, just more mana efficient. Also there is a consume spirit from X that works better then the Drain Life, but does the same thing better. For card drawing and since it seems your...

    Varint Rules site

    Hey guys and girls haven't been on here for awhile, just wanted to see what you think of our website which will sell variation rules for card games and board games. http://groups.msn.com/TwistedGameRulesDesigns First, the website (though MSN refers to is an an webgroup) is in its infancy, so I...

    Knowledge skills (Identifying a creature)

    I tend to agree with you on the adjustments, and I know that the developer was going for ease of memory on the fly. Course, the only true way to test this is to playtest the tiers and DC's. Afterall, what fun is it to have the players notice an extremely rare creature 85% of the time...

    The PDF Review Project

    I'm sorry, I'm not trying to scare anyone from not doing this, I was just pointing out the bad with the good. But these two paragraphs and the paragraph you quoted are hitting the nail on the head, squarely I might add.

    The PDF Review Project

    I understand the rules of 2's, but there is some companies (people) out there, that will continue to make absurd races or what have you by using threes and and fives. They may not garner repect, reviews may not even affect them, as they keep churning out products time after time, because they...

    The PDF Review Project

    Thanks for answering all my questions.I guess I'm alittle leary with our company getting frauded a couple of years ago. Thank god for Paypal sticking up for us and prosecuting the frauder. In short, the guy was trying to sell our halfway done product at the time to a few hundred persons on an...

    One Column vs Two Columns and other questions

    I had started another reply to a message board, but when I pointed out to the wife about the files I recieved in her hurry she did something. This is the closest quote I was going to answer with. We are implementing changes to the cover and title as I has stated twice before in previous message...

    One Column vs Two Columns and other questions

    I'm telling you that is what was sent to me in the zipped files, why would I make something up like that. I was totally surprised not that I will never use the anime srd or the action system, granted it might of been a mistake, it may of been intended for someone else, they may of gotten the...

    The PDF Review Project

    First I will not flamewar with you, not everyone would buy your products either, not even if they considered superior to WOTC. You can't please everyone. Touch'e I'm not trying to start rant after rant, nor am I trashing the certain company everyone knows who I'm talking about. I said my peace...

    One Column vs Two Columns and other questions

    I read and had my staff read all the material presented. Some are very helpful, look at the reviews of those products, first there is only like 16 comments and most gives it about average, so it makes you wonder. However, I try to do my homework. I got all that you listed and more under the...

    One Column vs Two Columns and other questions

    I don't think it is so much amateurish as I did pay an artist from another pdf company quite alot of money, as I think nowdays in the rpg, people expect you to have an picture of some great monster or a character with the scenery in the background. You look really hard at all the covers at rpg...

    One Column vs Two Columns and other questions

    This was brought up in an online meeting about the title. The black and white was the first thumbnail submitted and all the reply in the email was "Tweak your thumbnail and or your text and resubmit", that quote is almost verbatim. So we did and resubmitted the 2nd one, which still needs some...

    One Column vs Two Columns and other questions

    One column or two First let me clear the air,someone said something about the pdf bible. Its no secret that when you sign up, paying your 40 bucks to rpgnow they send you three pdfs and a bunch of other stuff like anime srd, I think a superhero srd guideline, then the pdf creator "the bible" it...

    One Column vs Two Columns and other questions

    Yeap, you could say testy or was, I still prefer frustration. For the record, I or my staff don't make our pdfs like we message board. Actually, when it comes to our product I'm pretty hard on them about grammar and spellcheck, format and anything that comes to mind. Maybe its not a good thing...

    One Column vs Two Columns and other questions

    I should never say never, but we don't plan on going to press with this, being primarily an pdf sourcebook for online gameing but I see your point and with pdf you can make two different versions. Thanks for the feedback even if I sounded lets call it a frustration of things in my orig post.

    One Column vs Two Columns and other questions

    That is actually a good idea, and it makes better sense, but would this make a sourcebook look clunky? This is a fairly huge pdf, 256 pager 7.3 mb so I'm just wondering here

    The PDF Review Project

    As a publisher trying to break into this business, this is prob what really hurts us. I'm not quoting phil exactly, but he said something about the one reviewer who would complain that it would not fit into his campaign or on the other hand someone finds a error in your book, or a misprint of a...

    One Column vs Two Columns and other questions

    I have a few questions for either publishers, players or DM. My company recently sent in a review at a company that not makes you pay a 40 fee upfront, which some of the material, they send you is worth at least 20, and alot of it you can download off the net, but anyway, the first reply was...

    Black Dagger Game Design pulls book from production

    Today Black Dagger Games will pull its book from production; The Wilds-There and Back because it contains elements of roleplaying terrorism. Though we could not possibly forsee the attacks on London, and the elements are based on a 15th century way of thinking about terrorism, we feel strongly...
