SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Jeepform?

Quote from: David R;323338Nah, man. I'm using the trashcan system. Conflict is resolved by tearing pages from a game book everyone else seems to be enjoying, crushing them into balls and throwing them into a waste paper basket from certain specified distances - that's the GM's call. I'm ahead of the curve.

I like it, it's a good start, but more emo would be better.  You have to tear pages out of your poetry diary and toss them in an incinerator a GM specified distance away.

Quote from: Aos;323343That would be uncivilized.
Blood in the toilet water will do just fine.
I would go with the ability to remain conscious.  If you pass out after having your junk crushed by the toilet seat, not only do you fail the task, you are loaded on a bus with a one way ticket to Tijuana in a miniskirt and tube top.

I dunno. I'm wary about going too emo because I'm not sure it accurately reflects the culture of skateboarders ? I do agree that Aos's toilet seat system generally corresponds to the potty nature of the genre but how does one determine verisimilitude in this instance ?

Yeah, I totally forgot about the skateborder bit.  You have to tear pages out of your classic Thrasher magazine collection.

I apologize Jason. I was just having a bit of fun. It all just sounds a bit too intense and educational. I like games that throw up interesting questions but all this sounds a bit too out there for me. Good job on answering questions on your part though.

Thanks David, I appreciate that.  I totally agree that Jeepform is a little out there.  At the edges it's not even for me!  I definitely see the value in pushing the boundaries of theme and form though, and I've learned some cool techniques from it.

Quote from: Aos;323344Also how about a Toyotaform? Jeeps are maintenance nightmares.

Yeah, see that's what's bothering me. If this had been "freeform" then it wouldn't have bugged me and I could've stopped reading a couple of posts in. But "jeep" already means something. Please tell them they're doing it wrong.
