I'll be using the random number generator on random.org . Any possible players have problems with this? Or rules, or anything?

To get a D12 from 2d6 I think your best bet is to roll one and either add 6 if the other comes up with a 4, 5, or 6 or take its result if the other comes up 1, 2, or 3. Just rolling 2 six sided dice is far more likely to result in a 7 than a 12 (there is only one combination((2 6s)) that will result in a 12 while there are many ((1 6, 2 5, 3 4, 4 3, 5 2, 6 1)) that will result in a 7.) and will skew the results...

I would be interested in calling forth that-which-must-not-be-conceived-of-lest-you-realise-what-it-has-already-done for fun and parental-advice...

Oh, this will happen a lot of times. A lot of times. I suppose I should change from interest check to open sign ups if I have three or so interested. I'll also have a waiting list, because deaths will most likely happen almost at the rate of Potash maker adventures (Goddamn, I love that one!). Sign up now if you feel you want to. And I also use an alternate thulu list with the ones listed in the rules, so prepare for fun. and lots of it. I mean DF Fun by the way, just thought I'd clarify.

Even if you don't mean DF fun, it's still gonna be DF fun. ;)

Would it be bad if we have no experience with the game?

If not, I'm In

I have briefly reviewed the pictures next to the rules, so I am signing in while my overconfidence is still at its zenith.

Potash maker adventures (Goddamn, I love that one!)
Wow, I'm famous :D

I always wanted to play this, but there are no Pokethulhu players in the small town I live  :(
So, I never played it but have some knowledge of the rules...
I'll try this out.
IN!

I played it while on vacation with my brother, but he didn't enjoy it and refuses to play it ever again. I decided I'll play it here, because if you play DF you'll probably play table top games online.
