I dont' mind some variants, but some people use too many for my taste. I play a few other systems, but very few would I consider playing online.

Yes, I remember you told me my variants were too variant for your tastes.

Neeson did have a line like "Is R'as Al-Ghul immortal?" when he

I'm betting he didn't die in that train crash

*ahem*

Okay, lets not get this thread to far off topic and lets avoid the spolers RA...

But, yeah, that was the first thing to cross my mind, Rys. If you don't see the body...

I've seen D&D games recruited for by three regular ENworlders in the past week.

Yes, but the system I'd go there for isn't D&D. I have enough of that on EN World. I suppose I might go there if it was too slow here, but I'll wait for a couple of my games to die first (a few of my GMs are pattering off...)

... Your options for classes were way off the wall for me. And too many weird races to choose from. I don't mind weird races and classes, but I need time for them to soak in... small doses...

Ah, the key is to pick one that sounds cool and then steadfastly ignore all the others. That keeps it in small doses

Heh. I like to get concepts first and then build around it. Sometimes I use the classes as to give me ideas, though. I can't do that there.

What some people did was read the classes as I put them up and then get ideas. Like BS read the Gladiator class that I had just put up and then got an idea for a new character from that

... Are you trying to sell me on your game? Are you recruiting?

I'm not recruiting right now...But every RPG designer, even rank amateurs like me, probably has some subliminal drive to sell people on their ideas

You want to sell me on your ideas? Trying simplifying them somehow. Maybe you can categorize them and find common links, and then you can group them and explain them by type.
