Role Playing Public Radio Podcast / I'm really really sorry

« on: August 13, 2009, 11:05:35 AM »

I have been forced to unsubscribe from the podcast. I'm really sorry about that. It's not because I hate you, I promise. I have limited download capacity, and limited listening time. The New World actual play sessions kill both. It's a real bummer because I was actually enjoying it. But I have to give it up. I really don't like having to do that, and I'm sorry. Circumstances are bad right now. Can you forgive me?

General Chaos / What do we look like?

Podcasts hide our faces from prying eyes, they ensure that everyone recognises our voice, but no-one ever sees what we look like.

I have a mental image of what Tom and Ross look like, but I have no idea whether it's accurate or not. I'm putting my cards on the table. My avatar is actually me, and here's a formal portrait:



Let's be seeing you then! Post a photo of yourself. Any photo will do.

General Chaos / Hello!

« on: May 05, 2009, 09:40:47 AM »

There doesn't seem to be any generic introduction thread, so I'll make one.

Hi. I'm Arthwollipot.

I had an account on the old forums. I didn't realise that the forums had changed (it's been a while - you know, the whole Real Life^tm thing) and I lost my old account.

I'm currently running one game - Metascape, which is a space opera that uses a bizarre indie system which is free at the Mental Winds website. This podcast and the Roleplaying Tips & Tricks Newsletter have improved my GMing tremendously.

I was in an episode once - last Halloween I was the guy who had never run a horror game before. It was great to get mentioned on the show, however peripherally, and now I have a podcast of my own, although it's not game-related and therefore probably of little interest to readers of this forum.

Love the show guys. I love the way you think about roleplaying. I've always thought about the hobby - what I like about it, what I don't like, what works and what doesn't - and it's great to see some guys who also do that. I've been listening since about episode 4.

Unfortunately, my download capacity (and listening time) is limited, so although I've listened to a number of Actual Play sessions (I absolutely LOVED the April Fool game ), I don't think I can reasonably keep up with the New World campaign. They're big downloads. That's sad, because I have been really enjoying it so far.

So anyway, now that I've pimped my links, I'll try and post here a little more often than I have been before.

Cheers!
