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.

Well, we do play a version of it when we're alone in the office...

Wait, is this thing on?

I am salivating at the thought of a dead-serious backlash to that site.  It is the only thing that could improve on the perfection.

Gamerdom is just too vast for it not to happen.  I'm waiting for him to put it in Ads/Open Promo at The Purple Site.

Quote from: ReimdallWhat do you mean?

More importantly, where can I get a copy of Limbo Fever?

Dude, people are already excitedly working on it, inspired by the post.  I bet it's going to be even more awesome than "Drowning & Falling" and "The Book of Erotic Fantasy" put together.  

The only question I want to know is when the D20 version is coming out.

If someone actually produces this, I swear I will run an AP thread.

And "Limbo Fever" D20? Pshaw. "Exalted: The Limberials"

Yes, it is happening. In fact there's a thread on story-games right now, plus a child thread.

However, since I posted the link, after people were confused because the original poster edited it out, I don't want to be seen as "the guy who stirs up trouble between Story-Games and theRPGsite". So I'll coyly suggest that you hunt for it yourself, if you've got an account.

Oh, feh.  That's just teasing them.

Done.  The Story Games thread, we're feverishly working on the Limbo Fever design...  :D

Limbo Fever: How Low Can You Go?

Please. There can never be a D20 version of "Limbo Fever"!

This is a game about tackling thematic dancefloor issues and making powerful morality statements!

I think Cornell or the Professor there would take mortal offense to such a system befouling their indie cred. :p

jhkim, that links seems busted for me... :confused:

Edit:  Story-Games' entrance page graphic is so cheery, isn't it?  I like seeing it. :)

Why ARE you such a jerk about this issue, anyway? I've never been into elitism, just "do it yourselfism", and have pretty much always ignored random theory BS, and even gone so far as to eliminate it to some degree from my site.  I heard you used to game with Clinton Nixon and were buddies and everything (even played with Ron Edwards, even? Or maybe I'm thinking of the wrong guy). What happened? Why all the bile?

And on top of that, why the one-sided hate for me, man? Seriously? I've done nothing to you; it's unfounded, and it's really, REALLY kinda creepy...

QuoteI don't want to be seen as "the guy who stirs up trouble between Story-Games and theRPGsite". So I'll coyly suggest that you hunt for it yourself, if you've got an account.
Yeah, there is really no need to start "game forum trouble". I mean, seriously, that would be lamer than the old "RPGNet vs Gaming Outpost" crap from the late 90s. It would be like watching two old half-blind guys in a fistfight. I don't condone badmouthing or 'attacks' or whatever on TheRPGSite, and while I dislike the Pundit I can't argue that he's sticking to his guns in creating the kind of place he said he would; and totally respect jrients for being the "good sheriff" and all. "Inter-forum trouble" is lamer than trying to be all gangsta when you're not, and that's totally a place that I seriously, SERIOUSLY do not wish to go at all.

Oh and BTW, while I got the prerequisite rise out of the blog, now I find it pretty hilarious. I've linked to it. I hope this guy keeps it going.

Actually, the line "how low can you go" Is from Chubby Checkers Limbo Rock, also greatly interpreted by the Champs and the Muppets.
