Shit shit shit!  I forgot, take off that Unknown Armies and replace it with Menschlichkeit.  Sorry, I just got that one, and it looks FUN!

Gordon C. Landis

Hmm, a few changes since the "other thread".  First, the name - yup, I'm Gordon C. Landis.  The reason I often use the middle initial (Campbell, if anyone cares) goes back to my early days working with computer Accounting systems where things named GLxxx (after the General Ledger) were everywhere . . . I'm trying to shift to a simple "Gordon", but you know, old habits.

* Last three games you played?
- D&D 3E
- Orkworld
- InSpectres

(Orkworld and InSpectres were one-shots, but technically, that's the list)

* Favorite three games you've actually played?
- Talislanta
- OD&D homebrew with many elements from Greg Costikiyan's "Swords and Sorcery" SPI boardgame (don't know that I could enjoy it nowadays, though)
- Bar Room Brawl (continuing the 'oddities' trend in my favorites, this was a little thing in White Dwarf designed to be played with D&D. You got a character, a motivation, and the props of the bar . . we must've played 5-6 times, burning down the bar all but once, and having an absolute blast every time. Probably could still enjoy this one - love to see it adapted to DD3E)

(I hope to generate some new favorites soon)

* Three games you've always wanted to play but haven't?
- Tribe 8
- Hero Wars
- Sorceror (probably the "& Sword" flavor)

(I'd explain why this is a different list from the other thread, but that'd let me add an extra game, risking the Wrath of Ron again.  Man, last time I used that "Wrath of Ron" line he mentioned ear-crawlies and I'm not sure which was worse - having to admit I knew EXACTLY what he was talking about, or the memory of just how creeped-out I was the first time I saw that scene.)

Well, I usually hate playing this game, but here goes.

Last three games I've played are:
D&D3e
Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay
Villians and Vigilantes.

The last two go back two years.  Literally.  And I don't get to game regularly at all so I haven't even been playing D&D.

I don't know if I got a lot of enjoyment out of three games or if three games really stand out.  V&V definately tops the list.  DOn't show me Marvel SAGA or Stuperpowers.  V&V is the THE comic book super hero game to me and I won't be convinced otherwise.

I used to like the Warhammer World a lot but I've since become disenchanted with it.  Mostly because I hate buying pewter.

There are lots of games I'd like to try.  Lots of them.

Elfs
Sorcerer
Little Fears

The list goes on but at the top of that list is my own game game, doggonit!  Well, maybe I should finish writing it.

gentrification

My name's Mike Gentry, as you all surely guessed by my handwriting.

Last Three Games Played: Call of Cthulhu (using FUDGE), Paranoia, Unknown Armies (using FUDGE). I run CoC and Paranoia; one of my buds runs UA.

Three Games I've Most Enjoyed: Call of Cthulhu (using FUDGE), Warhammer FRP (using FUDGE), Vampire: the Masquerade. That's in terms of what games I happened to be playing when I had my three best roleplaying experiences, as opposed to what games do I like best generally.

Three Games You Want to Play but Haven't: Difficult to narrow it down to only three, but here goes: Tribe 8 (using . . . something; maybe Hero Wars rules?), Paranoia (using Dying Earth rules), Baron Munchausen.

This is so depressing.

Last played:

Theatrix, with a 1940s pulp setting.
White Wolf's Technocracy
A homemade TransFormers game, with few rules.

Most enjoyed:

Er.

God, I hate gaming.

Uhm. Right, I've struggled at this for 5 minutes.

A Star Trek game using GURPs that lasted about 8 sessions (7 years ago).

The TransFormers game I mentioned above, which lasted for 5 sessions (2 years ago).

And maybe... jeez, I dunno... A Kult game. Which lasted a year or so. Mebbe (5 years ago).

I should just kill myself.

Most want to play:

Clearly, I want to play more. Thus:

Unknown Armies. Sorceror. Continuum. Etc.

Depressedly,

Joe.

Tim's the name, Sim's the game. Well, not really, I'm more of a narrativist, and then a gamist, but those don't rhyme.

Last three: Aedorea (with The Window), Deadlands, ADnD 2'nd ed
Best three: Aedorea, Deadlands, Bad Ass (a terrible game I wrote, but loadsa fun at the time)
The three I yearn for: Puppetland, InSpectres, Sorcerer. But I'd settle for playing anything at all!

Sigh.





Ranko

Last: D&D 3E, Vampire:tM, Changeling.

Heya,

I don't usually much post here, but thinking about these questions was enjoyable so why not post them? :smile:

Last Played: Legend of the Five Rings (played it to death, never touched the new edition), Shadowrun (played it death and then some) and Star Wars (the original - hated the system, but loved my character).

It's actually been a long while since we played something, but I've watched and waited for a good system (while creating one, too).

Most Enjoyed: Legend of the Five Rings (we reached such depths of human drama and immersion into a different culture/mindset that these memories will be with me for a long time), AD&D (1st and 2nd Editions way back in the days, but I really did enjoy it, even if I'm quite sure I couldn't anymore).

Naming a third is rather hard, I've had such fun times in all games. Probably Shadowrun (for sheer volume of played campaigns) or Star Wars (did I say I loved my character?).

Most Want to Play: Hero Wars (tho' Glorantha has never really sparked me, I'm interested in the system and maybe putting it in another setting like Middle-Earth), Sorceror and - duh - sounds stupid, but my home brew system which is still in design phase.

Oh, the name's Joachim Buchert.

Cynthia Celeste Miller
