Irrepressible glee

[gridlore]

I just ordered Thousand Suns, written by maliszew. I took part in many of the discussions about the book, and offered to do some work on the default setting military.

Along with my hard-bound copy, I got a PDF download. I get a credit, and looking at the setting section, there's my work, ready for people to use.

I will never get tired of this feeling.

The entire game is excellent, and I am going to run it this summer. Using my own Concordant setting, of course. Which means I'm going to need to get busy. Because we're all adults with lives, I'm figuring on a once a month weekend gaming/dinner/more gaming session, with some side stuff done on a dedicated LiveJournal group. So, if you are local, and are interested, please fill out the poll. I emphasize local because I'm using this to plan things. Thanks.

You've seen Blake's 7 ?! I can't believe that crossed the Atlantic.

I shall be picking your brain again in the future and, with luck, I can even pay you for your efforts this time. :) I have a book on starships and running a "big ship" campaign on the schedule and I'm certain you have quite a few insights on these subjects that'd serve me well. And then of course there's the ground forces book further down the line ...

Well, I'm not entirely local (Sacramento ftw!) but I'm close enough that once a month could be feasible. The catch would be that I would be entirely dependent on the train, which stops running at a certain point in the evening, and doesn't pick up until early the next morning. Hence, if I were to do this, crash space wouldn't be nice, it'd be a necessity. ;)

(And while I didn't mark 'would need a ride', I would probably have to have some explanation on how to shuffle back and forth from the train station. I'm not afraid of public transit, though.)

Something Has To Be Wrong Here...

You're running a sci-fi game.

That isn't D&D 3.5 based.

That isn't based upon thinly-veiled yaoi.

Did the world just blow a gasket? Or is there somebody that is planning a game that I want to play?

Incidentally, should you ever decide to LARP Dante's Inferno... call me, 'cause that would be AWESOME!! :)

I'm Obviously Not Local, But...

Here's how I would respond to your poll:

Would you be interested in a monthly game in San Jose? No (airfare is a bit spendy for a monthly game)

Your preferred SF genre? Exploration, Intrigue and War

Firefly, B5, Star Wars, or Star Trek? B5 and Which Star Trek (I've never gotten around to watching Firefly [it came out during one or more of my deployments]; as for Star Trek, TOS and DS9 plz)

I'd love to vote in this poll, but as you said, coming to the game once a month from an another continent might be a bit hard.

I might have to pester my friends here to GM a scifi game for me, though.

(Oh, and as I said on the TML, I wasn't that much interested in the game from the first reports, but I still might buy it as it seems not to be standard d20 stuff. At least I could read it for ideas...)

My apologies. I missed the local part entirely. That's what I get for skimming.

Sorry the poll failed, mate. (No, I didn't vote on it.)
