Every recepe I've seen is a glorified omlette baked in an open pie crust.

Did you see that? I rolled a 1 on an Innuendo check. I can't believe I got a crit failure on an Innuendo check. Did you see that?

That goes to show you're not a Real Roleplayer, kid. Leaving you two (not three) other categories to choose from.

I'll have you know I have twice the Innuendo skill that you do, V-2, if that is your REAL clone number.
 

Originally posted by hong Back in the good old days -- the "Golden Era" of roleplaying -- it was easy to separate the men from the boys (sometimes called "Real Men" and "Quiche Eaters" in the literature). During this period, the Real Men were the ones who played Dungeons and Dragons, and the Quiche Eaters were the ones who didn't.

Yeah, but they?re funny. Just read Bone.

There are several Real Men playing GURPS, for instance, and they talk about Real Men's issues like wound ballistics and the physics of laminate armour and long rod penetrators.

Are you talking about GURPS or FATAL?

Those Real Men who play Storyteller also find no lack of opportunities to kill things. Indeed, Storyteller, despite its Quiche-Eating sensibilities, is perhaps even more suited to epic violence than Dungeons and Dragons; some 2,000-year-old elder kindred make 50th level wizard-paladins look like kids in the park.

Who doesn?t love playing undead superheros?
