Clearly running multiple missions at the same time is a terrible idea.  The epic battle to see which team can cock it up worse has escalated again.

And Larry kinda gets blueballed in all this; just left with a raging bone spear and no where to put it.

Because I definitely want back in.

Goes without saying I'm still game, I tried to revive this game using "poetry".

Necro-poetimancy? ... Knowing my luck that probably translates to something nasty.

So, it seems that everybody wants to reset the arena (or maybe a new one?). I think that I will go with that criteria. Sadly, I will have to figure out how to not waste a lot of time making a new list of words. Luckily, a way to randomize the words and its meanings will help.

Updates will definitely start from the 21st onwards. Until that moment, there is time to make suggestions, recommendations, or just straightfoward saying that the old rules suck.

I will probably create a new thread, so that I have control over the first posts, but I will post a link here.

And, while I hate to do this, and I don't think that there is a way to prevent absent players:

PLAYERS WILL BE SELECTED BY THE ORDER IN WHICH THEY POST THEIR SHEETS, STARTING WITH THIS VERY SENTENCE.

Chargen rules the same?
So, with that, are you asking if rules will change? Or, umm, what exactly?


EDIT: as a formality, Elephant Parade will need to post his sheet again, just to be fair with everyone.

As we are starting from scratch (which seems to be the concensus), there won't br reserves from current players. If we had just kept this going, stuff would have been different.

Uhm, concensus?  The only player that expressed a preference was Unholy, and he seemed to want to keep his old char.  Everyone else who submitted sheets seemed to just be hedging their bets so they could be the first people in, in case everything was reset.


I'd create a sheet, but I already know about how some of the new mechanics work.  Like the mist.  So it would probably be unfair.

Both Derm and Elephant Parade stated that they would be in if there was a new arena and a new waitlist. The rest remained silent aboout that subject.

And, there is no way of knowing which rules will be accepted and which ones will be changed.

Your call, of course, but I would suggest two things.

1)  An actual vote on it by the current players.
2)  If you do start it over, you might as well start a new thread.

I suggested a new GM on the idea that the current game would continue.  If you want to host this game but not continue this one, I might as well run the final fight to give this one a bit of closure.  That said, if you DO want to totally restart, be my guest- you don't need permission from me.

Sadly, I can't help with random meanings, but something like this should help you with the words themselves.

Not just rules, the rules for character generation in specific. Basically, are we making the characters the same.
I'll assume so.

Then it would be better if there is an actual player vote, then. When I prposed myself as a GM, I originally thought of continuing the game too, but I felt like if the players were pulling me in another direction.

So, yes, it would be better that those players who are curently in game could vote on whether to make a new game or continue this one.

IF we end up continuing this:
