May 8

So I will submit RPPR and RPPR AP I guess

sooo what episode should I list as a must listen? For the AP I am thinking Candle Cove but no idea on RPPR

[Mckma]

As I recall, "Set the Pace" and "Fight Me or Give Me a Quest" were good ones.  I'll look through and see if there is anything else that pops up as a good one.  As far as the AP, CandleCove is good, I'm also a fan of Night Shift, Candlewick Manor, and Are You there Witch?

[Dogfish]

You may wish to pick one of your shorter APs, 6 hours is a long time for anyone...especially people that don't know you already. I'd also note that the candle cove AP is good audio but not your best, sounds like ACs on in the background.

[Boyos]

Yeah I liked candle cove, I think a close 2nd is Pastoral Manor the Play test Animal farm one!

I would say Fight or Give me a quest would be a good one also.

[beowuuf]

Fight me or give me a quest was the first one I heard, so I might be biased, but it is very good. Another alternative is the 'be a team players' for you two essentially interviewing each other.


For the actual plays, I actually think you have better APs (and not cause candle cove is bad). Certainly some of your two player one keeper/GM games are fantastic - the Yakuza game, the fear itself second part (tom/cody and the beer), arcadia signal, room B12.

For larger groups, Sucrose park or Prototype part 1 stand out without being mammoth length.


The trouble with the New World campaign is it blurs together - I wish I could suggest one, but I can't think of one that's typical of everything that makes them good. Perhaps the thief guild battle in 12? Episode 2 (the first one actually still up)?

[Boyos]

Arcadia and b12 are real good ap's, so was tom's first WWII game.

[ristarr]

I'd go with Prototype part 1, Sucrose Park or Arcadia Signal ( in that order ).  I think the RP and the scenario of each should appeal to the judges.  If it is a game from Road Trip, then it will get the name in front of the judges for the book next year.

[rayner23]

Prototype or Arcadia Signal for the AP.

[Tadanori Oyama]

Break it Up is one of my favorite PodCast Episodes. Was that this year?

[robotkarateman]

I second the nom for Arcadia Signal. It's short(ish), well-played, well-narrated, and gives a good idea of the RPPR style.

[Kroack]

Arcadia, probably. However, it does have Cody in it...

We love you Cody, but is cumshitting really appropriate for the ennies?

[Dogfish]

Does he say the catchphrase in that epidsode? Will have to go back and check.

[AmishNinja]

My vote for best AP goes to Arcadia Signal and Candle Cove.

And really who cares about a couple of swear words? Brilliant Gameologists swear all the time and they're a very popular, well-respected RPG podcast. A couple of blips on an otherwise great journey won't ruin the experience for anyone who enjoys this sort of thing.

I'm pretty sure I was really well behaved because it was just Jason, Ross and me. Also, with horror games, I don't like to be too goofy because I don't want to break the mood.

I might go off on a digression once or twice, but I usually keep the dirty stuff for a table full of guys for D&D.

Lastly, as if the ennies were fucking prestigious or something.

[Setherick]

I have a problem with posting Arcadia Signal because there were only two players playing in. Just a thought...
