This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Good day to you all.

With one post, it might be best to post the details here, otherwise, it will seem like you're spamming.

What's the project? What are your credentials, and what is the compensation like?

I'm just asking to give this thread a chance if it's worthwhile, because I'm pretty sure that without discussion, these usually get deleted.

The Mosaic Oracle is on sale now. It\'s a raw, open-sourced game design Toolk/Kit based on Lurianic Kabbalah and Lambda Calculus that uses English key words to build statements. If you can tell stories, you can make it work. It fits on one page. Wait for future games if you want something basic; an implementation called Wonders and Worldlings is coming soon.

And "how credited?"  

Is one previous publication enough? Or do you want a stronger resume?

What the credits mean to me is that you are not only interested, but capable of seeing a project to the end. I don't need a JRR or EGG but I do need talented folks that conduct themselves in a professional manner and have good work ethics with a realistic understanding of the industry.

Quote from: Joe;399094... strives to swim against current trends ...

Just curious which trends you wish to swim against?

Quote...it offers a fresh anti-thesis to current trends that have caused certain issues in the gaming community.

Knowing which "current trends" that have "caused certain issues" would be helpful--to be sure that the writer does not inadvertantly stumble into those very trends in his writing...

...what "certain issues" do you see?

Quote... glory days of rpgs.

I think there are a lot of different perspectives on what exactly the "glory days" are and what they define.  How do you mean it?

This guy's been popping up on RPG forums for months. No less than 4 times, i believe, at Strike to Stun - still no-one is any the wiser what the fuck he's talking about.

Quote from: Joe;399094Compensation is individually determined and takes into account past achievements, raw talent, and willingness to work as a team member.
No-one with any sense is going to work for "what I decide to pay you".

Granted, that still leaves you people without sense, but in that case, you're getting what you paid for.

Facts, examples, data. Your vague posts have nothing to go on and so people will go on nothing for them.
The main problem with government is the difficulty of pressing charges against its directors.

Given a choice of two out of three M&Ms, the human brain subconsciously tries to justify the two M&Ms chosen as being superior to the M&M not chosen.
