Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

    You are obviously pretending to not know what you are doing in order to make us think you aren't a monster. I say we vote to kill you!

    I'm a noob. Am I doing this correctly?

    Given we're talking about Aroduc, he's probably pretending that he doesn't know that we know he's going to pretend to not know what he is doing in order to make us think that he isn't a monster. But you're off to a good start if this is your first game.

    Man, if I ever get to run a Phalla, I'm totally going to make that Dionysus role. Even if it doesn't fit.

    Setting: Star Wars Jedi Council

    You are.....The Greek God Dionysus! You make people drunk and tell their roles to everybody!

    In that same vein, I will never run a Phalla game that does not include Batman as a special.

    I already PM'd Dyna telling him about this.

    Setting: Prehistoric times. Some among your number are not, in fact, innocent cavemen, but evil dinosaurs!

    You are.....Batman! Once per night you can prepare. If you prepare for 6 nights in a row, on night 7 you win the game.

    Your jive speak makes me uncomfortable. Perhaps your actions could sway me though.

    For the price of one of my novels (Hardback, historical/alternative historical/dinosaurs) I can get 2 or 3 Manga for the price of my book. I think its about what you can afford and stuff.

    I tried to get to sleep, nothing seemed to work. Prescription meds, nyquil, alcohol. My brain wouldn't slow down. My Thoughts and my Actions were jumbled. I would pass out for just a split second to find a book open in front of me. I hadn't before...

    Finally, I gave up on sleep. I gathered my meager material on the best analog to Phalla I could find. It didn't matter how tenuous the connection. I figured it couldn't hurt to at least look it over.

    IMG_9026.jpg

    New Words were being written behind my eyes.

    Mortal, you forget yourself. You will need to be rested for the morning...or have you decided to neglect your Task?

    When I came out of it I saw that I had apparently been drawing while I was seizing or whatever.

    The first was a sketch of a land torn by men and by Gods.

    IMG_9034.jpg

    The second was of a strange ship. It didn't look complete. I was none too sure of its purpose, but it did not look capable of fighting.

    IMG_9033.jpg


    Apparently my hands were none too skillful while I was being Talked to by that fleet of foot God. I thought it prudent to make another attempt at sleep before I received further admonishment.

    Well, now I know you're a special of some sort, because no way you'd say that if you were a villager. Not sure what side you're on, but you're a special.
