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.

I really think that Pattern and Logrus ghosts are just about the most exciting things we learn about in the Merlin books (at least from a roleplaying / story) standpoint. The consistently excellent (re-imagined) Battlestar Galactica and the increasingly awesome Dollhouse are both great examples of the kind of play with identity and self-knowledge that can go on regarding ghosts. I'm especially interested in scenarios in which some or all of the PCs might be ghosts without realizing it and also in the potential for the Pattern and Logrus to edit their ghosts, either deleting sections of the source personality or merging multiple sources to create new, synthetic personalities.

What are the most interesting / fun things that have happened in your campaigns?
