The Hive!

[Mathew_Freeman]

I can tell I've moved into a new stage at work - we're having daily meetings now!

 

[Mathew_Freeman]

The characters would be PL 5 (90pp) Through PL 8 and have a pulpy golden age weirdness to them. Depending on how the game is set up, I think it could easily become character driven opposed to being all about combat.

If it was a RP game I would be interested in that for a pbp.

But I'd need some help with the rules as I've got rid of my M&M book now. Also, wasn't there a 2nd Edition of that with an update?

Oh, and morning, Hive!

Ideally I'd want the game to be RP heavy with little or no combat considering how many pbp games I've played in died because of combat dragging on endlessly.

Yes there was. The pocket guide and the last printing of the core books have the latest corrections. I'm not sure what exactly changed between editions besides for the cost of skill points; but I've heard that some people prefer the original over the 2nd edition.

There is also a OGL book which basically reprints every M$M 2e book that sells for 6 bux (?), but I'm not sure if they changed M&M's point values or what.

It's weird how Christmas and Valentines Day tends to be the two most depressing Holidays in existence. I wonder if non-christian cultures have a holiday which is similarly depressing

I do not find Christmas depressing at all!

I am neutral to Valentines Day.

Well, I'm not willing to pay money to play in the game , but if it's RP heavy then count me in. We could confer via the recruitment thread as to what sort of character?

I only find Christmas depressing because I'm a bitter, lonely old man.
I only find Valentine's Day depressing because I'm a bitter, lonely old man.
...
I'm a bitter, lonely old man.

I think it's not the holidays themselves that cause the issues though. But the way our culture tends to fixate on them, and fill the world with Christmasy everything on November 1st, it means you get two months of reminding you of what you don't have. Add to that the stress and financial woes, and you have a recipe for disaster.

Actually there are times when I buy whole bean. I have a grinder that I use when I want a cup from it.

Are you a coffee flavored villainess?

I know there's Too Much Coffee Man out there. . . I wonder if the forces of caffeine have ever led anyone to the dark side.

I take it you've never heard of Darth Espresso?

I take it you've never heard of Darth Espresso?

And his arch-nemesis, The Decaf Kid!

Surely it should be more like Darth Venti and Latte Espressomaker.

Of course, if you're willing to mix your media sources, Starbuck(s) is vaguely appropriate.
