Re: Secret NPCs

In most situations I am totally ok with secret npcs. My one exception is in situations where we will often hand wave a bit of the Acknowldement process for some pcs to help get them into play. I don't think a secret npc should have a plot attatctched to it that involves punishment or consequences fo...

Re: Kids and LARPing

I am of the opinion that anyone who comes to game should not shadow for more than three games before they are asked to make a character or leave - young or old. So, if a kid can't come up with a character and stay in character, than they shouldn't be at game - regardless of age. That being said, I'm...

So you don't worry

So, at some point tonight, I will likely stand still for a long minute - I don't want folk to worry out of character.

It's a Polish thing. I swear.

Re: XP Expenditure

We currently allow online xp spends? Uh... I knew that the online sheets were in beta and still had kinks and were INTENDED to allow online xp spends - when did online xp spends become allowed? And do you need a beta online sheet to do an online xp spend? I was not aware that online xp spends were a...

Re: Character Sheets Online

I like that you have to be at game to do xp spends - I think it encourages attendance and timeliness - both of which add to the rp environment. I also like that you can only do xp spends on your active character - I don't like the idea of xp spends happening on a character that isn't getting played ...

2014 Calender

Right - so on the main page is a link to the BAM google calender. I have now updated it with the 2014 dates for the active moons on game days for the Lunacy flaw. I've also added some of the big Islamic/Jewish/Christian holidays - stuff like Lent, Passover, Ramadan and the like. Also, I put on the s...

Re: Curse the invention of that miscreant Ben Franklin!

Yup, in fact each user MUST do it for themselves since it's in your personal board preference settings and not a board wide setting.

Re: Ralph's thoughts on rules

I hate mechanics. Ask anyone who was ever on my staff, or anyone who has ever tried to teach me a board or card game - they will all verify to you how much I hate mechanics. As a player, do I want to learn new rules? Hell no. It's taken me so long to learn the rules we DO have. As someone who has ha...

Re: Blood, Willpower, Herd, and mechanics. (But mostly blood

So, for those of you who were not here at the time - we used to have a very complicated in game system of feeding grounds - some feeding grounds gave more blood, some gave a bonus to certain influences ect. This required the domain to be divided up into regions. Each clan had areas that they claimed...

Re: Ignoring Alts in Uptime.

Yeah - I'm all for seriously turning a blind eye and being cooperative when a player can't switch to the needed character not because they choose not to but because something came up after they've already switched and now they can't switch back due to our alt rule. Just like you shouldn't use the ru...

Re: Attachments Weird In Auto-forward

My work around from this is to simply use other options other than the clunky attachments - like google docs with a link to the doc, or a hotlink for an image or an image embed from a web source.

I frankly despise how clunky attachments are and how for images they never display in full

Would I know you?

Lithuania, Poland, Latvia, Belarus, Estonia, Czech, Slovakia, Ukraine - but mainly Lithuania and Poland

If your character has spent significant amounts of time in Cam courts in this little area - might I know you? Let me know if you're at all interested in the small world syndrome.
