I wasn't really enamoured with PbtA until I heard some AP's of Spirit of 77. I picked up the book and that was the game that brought me into the PbtA fold. But that's just me. AND GOD BLESS YOU FOR IT!Born in 1970, baby. Spirit of 77 was basically written for me!

I think it high time for HyveMynd to run another Monsterhearts game for Jackercon 14! And Monkeyfun Dave needs to run that other game Spirit of ‘83 or whatever...

I also wonder if a MonsterHearts pbp would be much easier on discord, as opposed to the previous pbp we tried.

Well, fingers crossed that I can get some time off to run/play in something. I also wonder if a MonsterHearts pbp would be much easier on discord, as opposed to the previous pbp we tried. That game falling apart was totally my fault. I underestimated how much time running a PbP would take, as I did with The Black Hack and the Masks game I tried to run. If I ever did try to run another PbP game, I'd do it on Discord. But I'd also set a hard cap of one post per player per day. Especially in a game where I feel I have to keep tabs on every conversation to see if moves have triggered.

Unless you went co-gm/multiple gms

Yeah ask Probie Tim about an unlimited posting pbp game...☠️ Yeah, heh, and my 2018 goal (totally not a "New Years Resolution") is to do it again - but better - to make up for that failure. For my part, the unlimited posting isn't actually the issue. It's allowing more players than you can manage and not managing the timeline properly. It's also using an underlying system which allows for snap judgements to be made by the GM, without having to flip through a 450 page rulebook for a specific rule. My currently-in-development game is a WoD/Underworld/Exorcist inspired Moment of Truth game set in Arkham, MA (not as a Lovecraftian game, but because Arkham is fictional and the "haunted" reputation will work well for this game). I'm currently writing up vampires, werewolves, and demons for MoT, and putting together the setting. Hopefully it'll launch in a few weeks; I'm capping players at 10, and I'm using a new, unique approach that should really help with the timeline management.

Stu: "I've spent $500 on minis and I haven't even played the game yet!"
Did someone say X-Wing or Armada?

This is why I got away from minis, 40K cost me enough in the 90s so I dread to think how much it costs now.

First one to like your post, so can I get an invite? I was also probably the only person who commented on your ǵibbering gamer blog, so we're like buddies, right?

Warhammer 40k Psykers - The Sisters of Silence shut that shit down fast. That’s what they’re best for, send them in shut the psykers down and followed by a bunch of terminators to take them out before they can rally. Aaron
