It's not filled in completely, and I can't find the text document that tells me what all the entries. It's from a prototype I was building when FEF was becoming popular and I looked at their rock-paper-scissors combat system and thought 'you know what would make this better? Seven elements instead of three!'. So the table has seven elements, each one of those elements has sections for perks, faults, and traits, and then there's a divider to separate major and minor from the above categories.

It had some fun characters, I actually remember Alice. She had a major Sin fault that caused her to get a Sin based minor debuff every time she took damage, a Major Chaos trait that made it so that the type of debuff was no longer correlated to the source, a Major Madness perk that made her get increased madness power and defense for each debuff she had, a minor Fire fault that made her take scratch damage even when she dodged or blocked, and a minor Madness perk that let her have a chance to copy one debuff at random from herself to an enemy when she hit.

It made for fun builds and interactions, but you kind of had to have an exhaustive knowledge of the perks/traits/faults to make it worthwhile, and I gave it up when I realized no one would ever play it, and no one could ever DM it.

It's a strange conundrum that making game system rules is fun and satisfying, but that after investing too long without input we end up with weird janky unplayable systems, a creation whose purpose cannot be fulfilled.
Or I do anyway. :P

Ugh, so the enemy ship has variables for modules condition and script which determines random roll value and based on that removes 1 from unlucky module value, however when enemy ship collides with special test object triggering the script, its modules values all stay constant. WTF??  ???

That sounds pretty awesome, actually. Any chance you could one day complete it?

Yesterday in the evening, when I went to brush my teeth, I found my reflection in the mirror to be "adorable". I'm usually pretty neutral about myself, so that seemed a bit weird.

You are allowed to love yourself.

Embrace those deep pools inside your eyes.
Adore the masterwork that is your head
Love the way your hands muscles and tendons connect with each other, and how the form shifts underneath.
Choose to hold your own form as the ideal others must meet.
See the people who look at you, not as bystanders, not as people in disgust, but as admirers.  Can you see them?  They envy you

But it's covered in all this tiny stubble
And yet my appearance did get complimented occasionally, or it used to when I went out a lot.
It's wrong though...

*I* don't like how my face looks.
Though sometimes I like how I dress (:
Talkin about my purple corduroy shirt.  It is warm and very academic-chic, as far as I know.  I don't know fashion, I do know it makes me feel attractive.

I also like my hair a lot.  I feel bad when I don't take proper care of it.  When I feel bad I don't take care of it.

So piss is having issues getting wine to run.  I dont understand, can I use it to install games (like civ iv) or can I only run programs or ???

You can use wine to install and run games, especially those that are listed here, but wine can be very finicky. So if your computer is beefy enough and/or your games are not too resource-intensive, you might have more luck with running them from a virtual machine instead.
