Role Playing Public Radio Podcast / Re: Red Markets Alpha Playtest

Twisting H actually brings up a pretty good point... it might make sense for the market to be going up, because theoretically we're recovering from a major apocalyptic crash here, but it might feel less optimistic at first sight if it were going down (for reference, put "euro dollar" in Google This could be accomplished by moving the text to the right, but the actual artwork definitely prohibits it. I wonder how it would look with a significant downward dip at the tail end...

Thanks very much, Alethea. I did indeed find the link interesting, and I must admit I was a little bit unhappy that we happened to be entering in the same category. But yay for winning by default!

WAIT! *runs in huffing and puffing, slips filthy, probably typo-laden manuscript under the door*

*Edited to correct a duplicated name. That's what I get for naming minor characters. Stupid.

You guys all already know Shadows of Esteren is doing a Kickstarter for Book 2, but it's in the last couple of days right now, and they've offered a very nice-looking limited edition mini. It's certainly not cheap, but those of us who have spouses or other women at the gaming table who want to play a character that can be pretty without wearing a chainmail bikini, it's a breath of fresh air.

What kind of ideas do you have? We have a decently-sized group that shows up fairly regularly at this point, but maybe there's room for one more. I'll talk to them about it and think about whether I can handle six players. There might be a little wait time during the games. 

Oh, and we're playing Friday at 12:00 PM Pacific.

One of my players has an AI version of his character's rich father as the muse he gave her. I was like OK... that's more than a little fucked up.

Just pledged to hit $80K. The only reason my wife authorized the purchase of a completely unnecessary USB drive with a bunch of content you can get online for free is because my birthday's next month.

Minor corrections (and only because you asked):

"Players can assume the roles Firewall Sentinels..." There's a missing "of". (And shouldn't it be "role" instead of "roles"? Now you've got me doubting.)

High stakes gambling might do with a hyphen, if one is being particular. "A special one shot" might as well, and pear shaped.

I am of course available for editing services...
