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.

Long ago, in the days when I spent untold hours reading homemade rpg systems online, I came across a wonderful game called Cineflex by one Dariel R. A. Quiogue. The system was highly influential on my own designs and continues to be one of my "high watermarks" of free rpgs online. It featured a light, intuitive magic system based around themes and rituals, a combat system based around bidding difficulty levels, and chargen that involved a prioritization of significant character traits. Though ostensibly a generic fantasy system, a setting based around the Red Branch Knights of Irish myth was provided.

Unfortunately, the site as linked to from John Kim's Free RPGs online is no longer accessible. I'm wondering if anyone here knows of an alternate site that hosts the rules, has a backup of the rules in pdf format, or knows any way of getting in touch with the creator?

Sounds very interesting!
You can shake your fists at the sky. You can do a rain dance. You can ignore the clouds completely. But none of them move the clouds.

I always thought it deserved more attention. The combat system in particular I've wanted to expand upon, as I like the combination of describing attacks nd defences with escalating stakes until someone is forced to roll. Reminded me of the system for car chases from Victory Game's 007 rpg.

Thanks for these! This was my old site and I lost access to it when fortunecity went down.
