in Show Off August 2010

Hey, just thought I'd let you guys know that I finished the new video! I think it's a little bit more epic then the last one, and more tailored to the current game, although I think I might re-upload it to youtube in higher quality. For now here it …

in What to do when a PC becomes possessed... August 2010

Indeed! I've never tried demonic possession, but I'm thinking that it could be a lot of fun! Thanks for the ideas.

Most unfortunate Jim! I look forward to seeing what you have to add, when you get a chance, but real life comes first, always :). I hope everything turns out okay for you!

in Show Off August 2010

Very nice! I don't mind if people rip me off and then make a good product, and then give me credit for the idea ;). Thought the video was pretty top notch, and I've actually been meaning to re-do mine a little bit, so now you've inspired me to do…

I like metric f***tons of crap, sounds good :)

in [Self Resolved]Adventure Log Sticky August 2010

yeah, I'm two for three with players that are willing to contribute to the site and write adventure logs and such, so I'm pretty lucky. We're trying to get the third guy motivated, but he's just to busy to make the time. 45 Sessions? Damn! I hope…

Haha, glad I could help! ;) That function to edit your post dates has been immensely useful, especially since one of my players just dumped like 10 journal entries on me. Makes it really easy to put them in the right order.

Keep it coming man, your stuff looks great and those banners are awesome, I sent you a PM asking for the font so i can use it as well, and give everything a kind of uniform look. The stuff you've added so far is exactly what I was thinking when …

Sorry Jim! I didn't mean to steamroll your idea, I just got excited about the idea, and there it happened. :P I promise, maybe not today, but i will add something to your Gibson institute in the near future :). Cyberpunk maybe not be my most knowled…

in A Noob approaches. July 2010

Hey, welcome to the forums and OP, unfortunately, only a small number of the DMs on OP frequent the forums, but there are there are two suggestions I have that might help you out. Hopefully one of the PBP DMs will see this and scoop you up, but in t…

Hey, good idea Sheesh! I'll add that to the front page as a suggestion!

That sounds fantastic duskreign, exactly what I'm thinking. You could either put it all together in one entry, or add the elements piece meal, however you want! I'm going to add a couple things from my current game, which is totally fine if that's w…

Okay, I've created the campaign, it's called "The Fantastinomicon":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaigns/the-fantastinomicon I know it's a little cheesy, but hey, that's okay! I'll be sending invite to those of you that were interested, and if …

Just beat Star Craft 2, so I'm going to work on getting something set up. Might take a couple days, cause I think I'm going to try to come up with a main page along with basic templates and header banners and stuff to keep everything looking organiz…

whoa, weird, when I clicked on edit to change "Gibon" to "Gibson" it already was fixed, like it KNEW... that weird that it showed up that way... Unless YOU fixed it... which is the only thing that makes sense, since you edited your post too... Nice!

in Stealing Jim's Idea (for a repository of sorts) July 2010

LOL, nice, I'm going to edit that, and yeah, sounds good, I haven't set up the page yet (too busy with Star Craft 2) but if we get enough interest, I'll set up the barebones of the site, and we can get going.

in The Gibson Institute July 2010

Hey, just wanted to add that this is a pretty great idea! I have a friend who is going to be running a shadowrun campaign here in a couple months, so I'll point him this way as the time draws near to play, for the slang if nothing else, I like what …

in Hello all July 2010

I would like to add my welcome into the mix. So, Welcome! I've you're looking to run long distance games, MapTools and d20 Pro are both good networking game table programs. If you haven't checked them out already, I suggest you take a gander. I use …

in Dealing with Dangerous Encounters & PC Death in Your Campaign July 2010

I shall have to try that sometime Dusk, cause you're right, the PCs start to feel invincible. I think the issue stems from my desire to create huge, epic, character driven plots, so I basically trap myself in that if I kill one of the characters, th…

I wouldn't have thought to look at newgrounds, I'll have to take a look. Thanks for all the input guys! It's been invaluable in creating my game playlists.

in Problems with ratings - official thread July 2010

My apologies, i didn't mean that we needed to keep the 5-star system, merely that to have a system (such as the "likes" method that has been tossed around) that allows us to acknowledge the campaigns we like gives people warm fuzzies. It need not be…

in Duskreign seeks to win friends and influence people July 2010

A much better choice than losing friends and alienating people (a pretty funny movie, btw) Mike. A valiant goal to put your whole campaign up for everyone to see. I too am trying to do that with my Melekar Chronicles. But ever since i actually start…

in Problems with ratings - official thread July 2010

Yeah, frank, I agree with Sandman, sometimes I will click on the random campaign button on the front page, and I'll see something that i think someone has done a good job on, but I don't care to get updates on it, because it's a game/genre I'm not i…

in Problems with ratings - official thread July 2010

I agree Sheesh, it may not be perfect, but for the most part, high quality campaigns are the ones to receive favorites from people, and number of fans is how the popular campaigns are sorted. Unless they were to add different sorting criteria, I thi…

in Dealing with Dangerous Encounters & PC Death in Your Campaign July 2010

For my current game, I'm finding it difficult to keep a balance, that's because what was once a well balanced 3-pc party became two PCs. In an effort to not have all my work go out the window, I've retconned the two players to use the gestalt varian…

in How do you do, OP? July 2010

Welcome Jon! I just checked out your site and I've been impressed with the amount of information you've put up for a campaign that hasn't even started yet. It looks pretty good and well organized too! Two things that i find really make a page pop ar…

Well, I have no more suggestions than the others already mentioned, but allow me to extend to you a welcome to the forums as well! This is perhaps the friendliest forum I've seen on the internet, and if you are in need of questions, we've got answer…

in Music in your game July 2010

Thanks for reminding me Ydeon, I checked out that soundboard, and it looks pretty fantastic. And thanks to Ketherian for some more mood music ideas, I can never have enough, as I like to be able to just pick a situational playlist and let it run.
