11/21/2011 Noon: The Gank Effect and Social Contract Dogmatism
From a post by Zac here. Well, the reason why it (now) looks like we should have rolled is because the character was making a demand of the NPCs. She…

11/2/2011 Noon: Situation Generation/Prep.
I'm not really comfortable with the 'counter-factual' requirement of the other thread. Given the subjective way we remember things, it seems a process of simply eliminating certain counter factuals. No?…

8/21/2011 Noon: [D&D 4E] Start at 7th level and create a fear...
A guy (let's call him P. because I don't feel I have permission to use his name) started running a game at the local store now, having downloaded a 1-30…

7/18/2011 Noon: D&D 3E 'Characterisation'

2/22/2011 Noon: [Secret lies of roleplayers ( SLORP )] Flowchart check and verbal coherancy
Any points in the flowchart that lead to a dead end? Any opaqueness/unclear meaning in the text? Does it disappear up it's own arse, like a news report on news…

Participants: Noon, Gregor Hutton, Ron Edwards.


2/21/2011 Noon: On moderation and extent
I was going to type this awhile ago, but thought nah, it'll smooth over so it'll be fine. The thing is, by my measure the only reason moderation on any…

1/14/2011 Noon: [unnamed, small RPG]
I wrote a small rpg: here It's main feature is that I have seperated the exploration component and winning component, instead of trying to blend them together somehow with having…

12/7/2010 Noon: "Losing!? No, my imagination will have me win!"...over the other player...
Play by post rifts-like game. So, a character who'd had a bad past and then shouted the wrong thing to an NPC with a hard past and had some fisticuffs.…

11/6/2010 Noon: Extreme Vengeance - Skyclad

10/28/2010 Noon: Musing on true solo games and writers block

10/25/2010 Noon: Avoiding the mechanics or damocles sword/finger on the button play?

10/1/2010 Noon: Idea : Say No or Roll

9/28/2010 Noon: Weird spam with forge related addresses?

9/5/2010 Noon: Biasing the moment; also mechanical spines (rather than organic ones)

8/1/2010 Noon: The rule "'fiction' determines what rules can be deployed" - definition of murk?

4/27/2010 Noon: A question on a fundamental, whether it's taken as a given and taught by default
