Spicy

Craving for a game. I want a multi genre game that makes enough sense and has a number of different aspects that keep the game interesting. I feel like resurrecting my fading suns game, but to keep things simple I'll use the D20 Modern System (with future and future tech).

My understanding of a Feudal System and Economy had makes me appreciate the simplicity of a setting where trade and the transmission of information is slow. The limitations of even going at a fraction of the speed of light makes for interesting obstacles and game parameters.

Been reading D20 Modern. Since level system doesn't really work for me, i'll try to follow levels as level of Power (as in Power vs Expectation) instead of accumulated experience.

So 1st levels are mundane and commoners, 2nd level competents, 3rd level elites, 4th exceptional, and 5th heroic or important. Although, my problem with D20 Modern is that advancement is too fast. I may just use the original DnD experience system to tapper it down a notch and award action points instead of XP in a given ratio.

I'll also follow the Point based system where: 15 points and ordinaries -2 cr, 25pts and ordinaries -1, and the regular 25 elites.

I'd like to try putting a party in a variety of scenarios, from dogfights, mecha combat, and possibly a mass combat scenario (from heroes of battle).


unusual interests. I want to learn to make chorizo from scratch. I have a greater appreciation for preserved meats given its importance in low tech cultures and diet. In a given low tech game, a good cook who can prepare such can reduce waste and maintain the health of his comrades.

The role of spice is pretty interesting given that pests are not that attracted in eating spices or spicy food . Just yesterday i tried making sausage stuffing. It turned out ok, despite the fact we were missing a couple of imporant ingredients to draw out the porky smell.


A drawing. Made just last friday.

Technically I'm done with the project

no charter . after learning what a charter is and because they don't work with a charter I'll never do a project without it. A charter is a written agreement with a project sponsor/employer/ in what outputs to be expected and what points are needed to consider a project done. I've never worked with a character before and was continually frustrated and depressed because of constant revisions and fluctuating tastes and expectations. I'd rather be thought of a total prick than to destroy my life working without a charter. This comes up because, when technically my dad removed me from the website project I'm being asked to arrange it again. This fuels my wishes, not to mention memories of unbearable depressions, to really leave the company I just joined in 2 months. Honestly, I'm here cause my parents want me. They can't make me want this job. I was doing well in the 3d artist track, I was poor but well, less stressed and still hopeful of my future. Personally,

Gurps Mysteries

A really great GM book . If there was Game Mastering for Dummies (not just for DnD or GURPS ), Gurps Mysteries is the next level of Advanced Game Mastering. This is where the players grow up a little, they are not as interested in Hack and Slash anymore and they begin to lean on a more cerebral challenge. One of the best elements of this books is how to communicate clearly to your players through clues and hints in the game. Despite its focus on mystery, this books i great for any intrigue. Eventually mastering these technqies, format, and story telling will allow for games to have a very clear and sophisticated finish. An art onto itself, and not just a game. Of course the most important element is having fun. Fun is when you and the players are on the same page no matter what you throw at them to challenge their characters and give them a chance to shine. Filled with too much information . I'm excited at what I learned about armor smithing in the early Renaissance and late

330mg of Caffeine will do the trick

Ok i got a grande brewed coffee and put 8-10 packets of brown sugar thats about 155 calories. This is twice the amount of Caffeine i get from my 2 shots of espresso in the morning with 4 teaspoons of brown sugar. How do i feel... Better! although my face is reeling from the bitter after taste of the coffee. good coffee is really sour going down and really bitter after. The intense sugar tends to make the sourness taste fruity. Anyway, my is elevated and I'm a bit hyper but i am able to control that better these days. The tons of notebook and the emotional intelligence studies help. Particularly when i've broken down most of my peculiarities and the way I think. Heck, I think i can make an entire wiki based on how I'd react to certain things. It would be very revealing and transparent of me, and of course like the anything so vulnerable subject to abuse when falling in the wrong hands. I have to email, a friend back some airsoft details.
