As I've mentioned before I'll be running a Discworld campaign. Although, I'm thinking of using a homebrew that is similar to the Discworld with some other things involved. Here's where you come in: What else should I "throw" in?
DISCLAIMER: I'm not asking how to improve the discworld. I see it as perfect. Just not perfect for what I'm doing with it.
Apparantly after reading through the Gurps guide...Discworld does not fit in with puns or slapstick. I, however, will be using both of these *lightly*. Puns here and there but nothing to the point of stupid. (i.e. stick your hand in the box to have your palm red.......and after removing it, what a surprise, your hand has been painted red.) And slapstick will not be added to the point of toon. Well maybe like some cartoons, but not much so. Pain should olny be funny if it hurts (no I'm not sadistic--but it has to be real). I'm thinking more of a farce.
What I'm looking for is other "flavors" I should add. Such as Monty Python. That's a must! or maybe a Lewis Carroll approach (Alice in Wonderland....of course more disc-ish). Maybe some Piers Anthony such as the Immortality series. Tom Holt and Robert Rankin styles are too similar to Terry Pratchett to need to incorporate.
Basically, what other sources of comedy would work well (examples can be taken from books, movies, and well any other source of entertainment.)
