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.

Following Erick's suggestions...

...and dumping the rules.

After a long hiatus, I started a new Amber game, with my new group, on the new continent we've moved to :)

All of them newcomers to rpgs, only one of them has played twice in a D&D group. Three guys, two girls. One of the guys is the father of one of the girls and one of the boys. Ages range from 14 to 53.

I wanted to have the attribute auction – not only because it preloads the game with power struggles, but also simply because I like it. Each player had 100 points to spend, only on attributes.

After the auction, I had my ranks – and then, I dropped the points, completely. In secret, I asked my players what power they wanted. Wrote that down. Same with personal shadows and items. The more powerful, the more challenges and enemies I'll be throwing at them.

This is going to be GOOD!
