Hey Runster, How do you like the Wiki program you used for EverWiki? I'm planning to have my players help build a lexicon for the new game I want to run, and I...
Here are some of the lesson's I've learned. 1. I chose the first Wiki I could easily install, called WalaWala. There are many others, and many with better...
In a fit of exultation I announce the completion of my Fortune Deck!!!!!! I haven't managed to put them all together in a single Publisher file yet, though I...
Thank you, runster, for the info. Some points for me to consider there. If I have permission from my players, I will defintely throw up a link to the...
I know this will sound like a really crappy answer ... but I think that "middle" specificity is best. To broad and everyone will go in wildly different...
John, I just had my first look. Those are pretty damn cool. I want to steal them, put them someplace nice, and refer my players to them when I draw cards. I...
[I really should proofread my messages, shouldn't I?] Cool. I have a very general topic (and again, I can't unveil it here because two of my players are...
... Thanks, I put the physical/mental/spiritual thing in since I tend to use them when interpreting, but since it's a personal thing that's why I'm going to...
Just a quick note about the latest change (primarily a cosmetic one) to the Everweb: I've changed the blurb for John's page to reflect its broadened scope. I...
Thanks Rob, and congratulations on the baby. John '"Can a magician kill a man by magic?" Lord Wellington asked Strange. Strange frowned. He seemed to dislike...
Hello all, Last weekend I finally ran the Pulp Aviation game I had been thinking about for the last year or more. Folks may remember some discussion of aspects...
Glad to hear the game went well, it sounds like a lot of fun. I was just wondering how your cliché cards worked, did every player get a selection and could...
... and the players gained more (rarely) as a reward during play. I had used a similar scheme (but with a childish quote set of cliches) for a Puppetland game...
Dear John, I just noticed that you've added a "Multi-Sphere Organizations" page to your Everway site. A good idea, I thought. And then I read your write-up...
Thanks Rob, I won't report the theft! :-D It was one of those things that you think of and want to make more of, but just couldn't decide on a good way to use...
I wrote up a multi-sphere organisation, ages ago. I think they might be in the files section of the group, or perhaps in a past post. If you wanted it for the...
... For myself, just wanting to browse the images to see what the new deck was like, I found the symbols to be too distracting. If I was going to print the...
Thanks I'd appreciate it. I had a quick look through the files but couldn't see it, but re-read the city realm thing from 2002. I can finally remember the...
... I agree that perhaps they are too large. But I needed them to be easily seen even when the cards are printed in their actual card sized form. I will...
Hey John, How big is the file zipped up? If it can be zipped to 10Mb, you have my Okay to put it on the group's file site. Also, I've never tried so I don't...
D’Oh!!!! Thanks Longspeak. I’ll apologise now for being an idiot and forgetting about zipping. I’ve managed to get it as a RAR file (full compression)...
I've split the RAR into 6 files. They're in the Fortune Deck folder of the Files section. It's still in PUB format, but I'll still look into making it a PDF....
My turn to "D'oh!" I knew I forgot something in that message. The 5Mb upload limit was that. But I see you got it split up. I think (if it works size- wise)...
... A little off topic, but you might want to check out Cute PDF. It sets itself up as a printer and when you print to it saves the file as a .pdf. And it's...
Hello, This email message is a notification to let you know that a file has been uploaded to the Files area of the Everway-L group. File : /Fortune...

Hi Everyone, By the time you get this the PDF version should be up. I tried Cute PDF (Thanks Eric), but it unfortunately didn't work as planned. Anyway after...
Dear John, I really like the new look for the Deck-with-symbols--much cleaner and clearer. Hmm . . . mentioning that no one had ever done a homebrewed Fortune ...
Back in the Rubicon days, Evan Sass wrote me a Perl script to do just that. It accessed the images from Rubicon's library of images and put up a fortune card....
... If anyone wants to use the Perl script I put in the files section to make this a reality, please feel free. It handles the basics - upright and reversed,...
