Some stories

The Stand, by Stephen King. Its pretty inspiring for a game. Although at roughly 30 hours, it is an epic to listen to. I have my own Ideas for the cast.

Frannie - any photogenic white girl next door of early 20s that match the description. Currently i'm using this anonymous picture with just darker hair. Don't want an established actress that would have a well known character to associate her image to.
Stu - The protagonist in
Harold - One of the guys from Super Bad.
Larry - the jack ass guy in dukes of hazzard.
Ralph - moon-shine making uncle in that car jumping tv series, particularly the one in the movie version
Glen - Same as Mini Series or John Hurt.
Judge Farris - Anthony Hopkins
Nick - This very young actor who looks like Ben Folds when he was younger. Can't forget the name, he would be Perfect!
Flag - A young Cy Powers with wild long hair and fit Or a younger Ian McShane.
Nadine - This one is tough, she should look good with a skunk tail or with white hair. Voluptuously Sexy but can play the Guidance Councilor. I didn't like the casting in the miniseries. I have a cross with school teacher Liz Taylor and a more ordinary looking woman in her 30s.
Rita - the lady who played the Queen.
Leo - ? any kid that would fit the profile. I have a stereo type default for the image.
Tom Cullen - The actor in the green mile with the rat.
Trashcan Man - a caricature of a horribly disfigured character.
Loyd Henried - a caricature of a horribly disfigured character.
Dana - Battle Star Galactica star pilot.
Lucy - the one in the mini series.
Stacy - Kate Blanchet(sp?)

I try to imagine it with the Zack Snyder and the 300 people behind the scenes.

Overall Impression.

The bad: I don't have a favorite character in the story. I find this sad, I tend to go for characters like Tyrion and I haven't had a character that I very much like since. Nick hits me like a John Snow, which doesnt engage me much.

As a GM, my gaming influences my prefences in stories. I'm not much for the direct way the plot is resolved. Faith, Blind faith was what was asked by the Prophetes from the heroes. I like trouble shooting, and limitations on both sides.

the good. It is a good story. It is entertaining and inspiring.

Busy Weekend. Had Airsoft, busy fixing computer and made some initial prep for fixing the house.

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.
