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.

What is your favorite craziest-concept game?

Well, I'm at work for another two hours - not that it keeps me from posting, night shift rules - but I'll certainly hit some download links once I get back to my home machine. Your tastes have yet to steer me wrong.

The internet recognizes only five forms of self-expression: bragging, talking shit, ass kissing, bullshitting, and moaning about how pathetic you are. Combine one with your favorite hobby and get out there!

Musicals are the lowest form of entertainment. Thus, any conversation about them is doomed to failure, like swapping kitten gumbo recipes or the right way to conduct surgery with an oar.

Can we limit this to actual games and not stuff you've invented?

I just got a cheap copy of Nightlife - very strange book where you play a vampire, ghost, or demon. Strange powers and even stranger ideas in it. I remember looking at this game on the shelf about 10 years ago and thinking, "not for me."

My point stands, as neither of these is entertainment. Partially obfuscated homoeroticism and rituals to contact the Voiceless Gods Beyond Time are not entertaining to anyone but their participants.

I have the entire Nightlife catalog on my shelf. If it had gotten the attention that White Wolf did, the world of horror gaming would have been a lot cooler.

I'm thinking about trying to an interview with the author, Bradley K. McDevitt soon.

Splatterpunk instead of Gothic-Punk, and heavier on the punk aspect than WoD ever was; and I honestly wouldn't say that it was crazier than, say, the first edition of Mage: The Ascension.
