Sabaton is pretty great. Gotta love World War II metal, and if Primo Victoria doesn't get you into the mood for killing nazis then I don't know what will.

In other news, Jimmy Urine of MSI fame makes hilarious videos/songs.

Terasbetoni, which translates to "steel concrete" in Finnish, is known for their tongue-in-cheek style of metal and I'll be damned if this isn't one of the most manly music videos I've ever borne witness to. Orjatar means "slave woman", and the entire song is basically SLAVE WOMAN! HEAR MY DEMANDS, KNOW YOUR PLACE, AND YOU WILL EXPERIENCE A DIVINE PLEASURE! It also talks about going into a forest with an axe and slaying enemies.

Good electronica. You can ignore the video on this one, it's just good background music.

I listen to AP's while I MAKE computer games. I've got a small little startup and we're going for a fantasy themed action romp for the iPhone / Android, so this keeps my mind in the right frame of reference while I model zombies and make dungeons. One day I might even play a real table-top game myself!

Nice. Are you all set on the Android Development side of things? I'm looking for side projects right now.

I listen to APs when I'm at the gym sometimes. It's a hilarious fusion of jock behavior and extreme nerdiness. No pump-up tunes in these earphones, no sir. Just the sounds of some bros hanging out, rollin' some dice together.

I was listening to the Prototype game once while doing a pretty tough set - and it was right at the part where Jason throws a rock at an oncoming car. I laughed so hard that I almost dropped my weights. I actually had to stop working out for 5 minutes or so because I was absolutely dying of laughter. It got me some stares.

Otherwise, I often listen to the APs at work, which can prevent me from giving it my undivided attention all the way through. Once the weather is nicer, perhaps I'll go out for walks at night while listening and get creeped out like everyone else. Caleb's last game in particular was heavy on the Creep Factor but it's tough to really feel it when you're in a well-lit office with other people.

Currently, I'm trying to come up with something for A Dirty World to play at Gencon.

I'm so down for playing in that if there's room. Ever since Andrew's Fortune I've even been looking into running a one-shot of a DW game for my group.

Also dude you are very welcome.

Just finished listening to your CoC scenario Caleb.

Your writing is amazing, your pacing is amazing, everything about this scenario was amazing...

Keep writing my friend, your stuff is brilliant!

I would love to run this for my group if you ever get the chance to post your notes...

SAME. roleplaying hicks sounds like too much fun.

My stuff hasn't arrived yet. Did my info get across to you Ross? I think I was kind of late in responding to the kickstarter emails.

I'm another contributor who hasn't played yet - my schedule has sucked lately. I can do Sunday evenings usually, and then during the week: 6pm -> midnight each day, preferably not Thursday. Edit: CST

Game preference: CoC, Fear Itself, D&D (lololol just kidding), Dirty World (ever since the Caleb AP I've been very interested in this system/setting), haven't played MAOCT yet so I'd be up for that if others want to try it.

Dude, I'm so in on this. You rock Caleb.

Also, if you have any tips for "doing voices" or inspiration for your NPCs share 'em!

Aw man. Kinda wish I'd played in this instead of going through with my other plans. I'VE LEARNED MY LESSON, BOY HOWDY.

I have to bow out of this one but maybe I'll call in my contributor favor for next week's game. Don't freeze to death y'all.

I am tentatively in (There's a small chance I end up running Unauthorized Content for my local group that night). I want to play another character that has to think about whether or not staring at something sanity-crushing is a good idea.

The trick is not to make the traps/improvised weapons too complicated. Due to the state of mind these people are in, it should be kept relatively simple. But yeah, I'm sitting here in an office right now and even after looking around I can't add much of anything that hasn't already been mentioned. I'm not a very innovative office-warrior.

Edit: If you want to make things a little deadlier, you could say that there was some office renovation going on at the time. Tools make for good weapons.
