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.

Quote from: CalithenaGood point, I'm thinking that through as part of this thread. I do find that lighter games make it easier for me, but that may just be my experience.

Rules light games tend to required it. If there's a big centipede attacking the party in The Window, it's going to be unique because there are no centipedes detailed in The Window.

And now, a quote from The Booke of Rotwang!e:

         It's MY game, you doinkus, and I'll do what I LIKE.  You want five across the lip?  That's right.  GYMKATA!

Thus he spake, and that's that.

Quote from: CalithenaPierce -

I don't know what a 'collective coolness fest' is, but if you mean any time anyone says 'hey, maybe it's like this' it goes in, or even that a substantial part of play is spent on making stuff like that up, then no, that's largely not a technique I'd be interested in. (Exception: out of play brainstorming settings with friends I already respect as knowledgeable and with compatible aesthetics to my own.)

Yes, that's what I mean, Cali.

But the real reason for my posting is below little thread, which is multiple shades of awesome in its own right, as well as grist on different people's mills simultaneously. Just a little PS.

Much appreciated.
