    Public Moderators

    I have never thought "Ah, yes, more bureaucracy would make me feel better about this". I either think I'm right, or (hopefully) own up to my mistake.

    Public Moderators

    For the record: I don't trust the Paladins. I find them annoying and generally full of themselves (seriously, Paladin of Ice? "Everyone should chill out?" C'mon.) (Also, what's up with the aggrandizement of "Paladin" and then hiding in anonymity... "I'm so good and pure!" "Who are you?"...

    Public Moderators

    I don't know that using the handles will prevent blowback in any particular fashion, but it would be a useful device for delineating when someone is "speaking from their office" vs when they're just chatting things up.

    Re: photo permissions

    Apparently Seattle has a different rule - you have to have consent before filming/photographing people? To be really clear - I have no objection to having photos of me used for the rulebook or website. I'm all for it. But I'm also aware of a number of people who are professional models (to...

    Re: photo permissions

    Does it strike anyone else as weird that you have to opt out of having your photo used in the rulebook, rather than explicitly grant permission?

    Metagaming and things that exist for OOG reasons but are IG-observable

    Says who? ;) The game world as experienced has substantially more reality than any amount of off-board described events. As a body, players will react more to the things they do than the things they imagine they did, and I generally think that they should. That infuses a certain amount of...

    Metagaming and things that exist for OOG reasons but are IG-observable

    If a given chapter's events play out like clockwork in terms of flow, then taking that as an in-game reality of the local world isn't really much of a metagame - it's responding to the way the in-game world has been made manifest.

    Siege Weapons

    The trick is triggering the mechanic. You want the shot to make the distance, so initial speed has to be high. Then, before impact, you want the shot to slow down, but still be reasonable speed. Something with a last-minute parachute could be cool, in theory, but I don't know how to make that...

    Siege Weapons

    I thought about aircannons - more money than I wanted to personally spend in testing, and I kept running into "any delivery system capable of lobbing the projectile far enough created too heavy of an impact". I'm not against it, but the impact balance was always a factor. I generally think it...

    LARPs and Gypsies

    Wait.... is there an actual group of barbarians roaming around somewhere being denigrated? What culture or ethnicity of modern people is being disparaged? So, I think a lot of people will maybe touch on the "Hey, Gypsy is a racist term, and, for all the fun you're having, you're failing at...
