Space Whaler RTD? Do want.

IDEA: Combine the You Are Space Monsters and Space Whales.

Space Whalers as the antagonists, Space Monsters as innocent teenagers out to have a bit of fun at the universe's expense?

It makes perfect sense! We get to be horrifying space monsters one way, and horrifying space humans the other!

Plus, it would bring all kinds of hilarity and insanity. Count me in if it's ever made.

Maybe waitlisters (if there are any) can guest star as captains of whaling ships/galactic enforcers/unethical scientists and many more?

Okay this needs to go in an Ideas list.

Remember that laziness is always a downward spiral that leads straight to the bottom?

Remember that laziness is not really an actual excuse, and advancing it as such only makes the situation worse for you mentally?

Remember to try and enjoy making your RTD, else there's really no point?

Get more sleep?

Do something productive and enjoyable to replenish mental strength?

Let your sense of duty take over (warning, may not necessarily work for creative endeavors)?

Do your work on the RTD in a more fragmentary fashion?

Explain a bit more about the particular RTD you are talking about?

And more!

[Tarran]

A good way to fix laziness is to realize that doing nothing is worse than doing something you're not too happy about.

Alternatively, find out what exactly about your RTD makes you gag and fix it/axe it if you can.

For the space whaling RTD you need lots of cargo space for the space whales. Maybe that's why its cramped

I don't mind space whalers appearing in the space monster RTD. In fact, I think it'll be very fun. But these are kind of different concepts, and playing both games at once might get confusing. Plus, there are several monster players, but all whaler players are supposedly on one ship. How do they all play together?

I can suggest that players in the waitlist could choose to play as the next generated monster - or several players could play as several smaller monsters, since that's also possible. Normally the ship will get reports or scans of several possible "targets" in this or that area, along with the danger rating. The whaler players will vote which they want to go for. The monster players can then choose to be the selected target(s), add a few features they wish to have (in PM), and the rest will be randomly tacked on with a Metamorphica equivalent until the required Danger Rating is met. Then the whaler ship battles against the "space whale", and either wins - taking home a chunk of processed meat - or loses, allowing another six players to get a new ship and start over.

The only reason I don't want to have several whaler ships playing is that it might start being too hard to keep track of everything. No matter how simplified the system, a dozen players at once will get taxing after a while, even with the turnless Piecewise manner of GMing (I can't help but marvel at how well PW's name works for this) helping the game along.

[Xantalos]

I'm just going to agree with whatever Sean said.

We're whalers out in space,/
We shoot whales in the face,/
Then we carve them up/
And we sell their guts/
To upgrade our whaling base.
