Robotoberfest in Florida and California this month.

2:01 AM

I just saw that Masks game described as Monsterhearts but with superheroes.

2:20 AM

@doppelgreener Are you talking about this one?

He probably means the Kickstarter linked in the RPG Stuff pin.

Oh, didn't spot the addition. [checks out]

Check out the Furious Test Drivers too!

2:42 AM

Hmm. I'm looking over 'em, but it's not really a theme that draws me in.

Mostly I'm looking at them to see if there's any original systems they're hacking that I want to investigate.

Fall of Magic interests me.

Magician

@Pixie I backed it, and will likely write about it once I played it :)

2:58 AM

Also kind of makes me want to watch The Last Unicorn.

@Magician Hearing about actual play would be nice!

@Pixie The kickstarter that BESW mentioned.

I've never actually played Monsterhearts, but I bought it recently, and I've heard a lot about it from friends. This Masks game looks neat, and also the art is amazing.

Oh man. I wonder if they're going to sell the Masks dice separately after the campaign is over. I don't really have $100 to drop right now for the sake of this, but I am filled with want.

3:34 AM

Heya Folks :)

Hmm. But the unrelated Masks game I linked above has a random generation character method. I may mess with it later. On that subject: anyone know of other games that have full random generation for characters? I love Maid RPG's and had a lot of fun with Eclipse Phase's.

Deadearth? /run

I am googling, but you get a lot of character generators like this (language warning). Such things are great, but I'm looking for stuff within games. :P

Great Ork Gods has a randomisation option, but it's literally one option: randomise how much each god hates you. Because that's the Ork's only variable starting stat except for its name.

Heh.

For my current purposes (I just want to roll a lot of things and see how they work together), the more stuff, the better.

3:42 AM

I figured.

I assume you've seen deadEarth, as Nyoze mentioned above.

I have. Maybe someday...

...The 1985 Doctor Who has randomisation!

It's got PC randomisation, solar system/planet randomisation, alien creature randomisation...

...I'm gonna roll up a planet and a monster.

Ooh. I'm into Dr. Who, but that sounds fun.

The d3 Sandbox Companion has a rather thorough system for generating NPCs, among other things, which can easily be applied to any kind of character. Stuff like this is acceptable for me too. The d30 DM Companion has some fun stuff in it too (random mold!). It's obviously primed for OSR, but I have much fun with both of them.

4:21 AM

wait...there is ANOTHER AWE powered supers game?

I JUST bought worlds in peril. Not gonna kickstart that one too

Q: Must contributor agreements be physically signed?

8:56 AM

I've been developing an API internally with a few friends, and hope to expand it and make it open to the broader public. I've highlighted a lot of background in this question, but to recap, it's a smaller project that has mostly been intended for educational use. We're going fairly well, found a...

look at the last (-6) answer to that question... there is a banner on the answer. I have never seen that before... does that happen here?

Miniman

@Tritium21 Never seen it, but I'd love to - it'd be pretty useful.

I haven't seen anything like that before, but it makes sense.

If i remember I will ask on Meta Stack Exchange about it

anyways, bed

@Tritium21 it's gone, but was that a citation banner?

Yes.

feature-request status-completed wikipedia post-notice

11:42 AM

I've seen that from time to time, but I have no idea what the trigger is.

Or whether some sites do it and some don't. I've never seen it here.

Q: Support for banners?

It would be very useful and possibly necessary on our site to have support for banners to apply on questions and answers. This would help the questions and answer to get proper attention and editing love they deserve. It is in no way different from how Wikipedia handles the same problems. They c...

@doppelgreener ^ this ones?

seems a mod feature.
