Chris, Congratulations on your recent purchase of 'dead labor'. Now you have to find some living labor to exploit to be a full capitalist. Remember to lengthen...
I'm afraid I'm going to have to bow out of the restart of the Gallipoli game. I just landed a new night job and between that and school and family, I will...
I'm now back from holidays. I see nobody has sent in any Arguments for Gallipoli. The only development in my absence has been decidedly negative, with John-...
Howzit Marcus and welcome back. With John sending his resignation I
thought I'd better wait to see who will be joining the allied cause so
that we (the allies)...
How about we start again from the beginning, giving the umpire the chance to recruit some more reliable Allied players? As I recall, things were going fairly ...
The first turn is complete and stands as is. I am happy, however, for Allied players to revise or scrap the Arguments submitted so far for their Turn 2, as...
... I'm willing to volunteer if you think the game is still viable, but I have no experience in marix gaming (and this list has been rather quiet since I ...
Andrew, The naval command (De Robeck) is certainly available. The lack of Matrix Gaming experience is not fatal, particularly in the case of a team game, where...
... Thanks Marcus. I'll keep an eye open to see if the other British player position gets filled, and read up on the campaign in the meantime (or is that...
Hi Andrew, I am playing Hamilton, once we have a Birdwood then we should
make a coordinated plan as our landings are expected this turn. Cheers
Harry. ...
Hi, I would be interested in participating as an allied play but don't haven't kept up with the game, rules or arguments submitted. If you are willing to send...
Marcus, This is a damn fine site you put together! The more you know the stronger the arguments. By the way once in a small town in N.Z. I spent a wondeful ...
Mike, You would be most welcome to play the role of the ANZAC Commander, Birdwood, who was previously played (at least in theory) by the other Mike. The rules...
I saw a terrific documentary last night on SHOWTIME called Fog Of War. It is a documentary on the life of Robert McNamara Secretary of Defense under both...
HOW TO SUCCEED AT BUSINESS WITHOUT REALLY TRYING A quickie Matrix Game about lying and deceit in corporate America. I’m starting this off as a solo game but...
Chris, Can I forward this to the nanodemo group. By the way in case your wondering the group is a group for people who wrote a novel in November. Its a ...
... Somewhere in Holywood - where she has been dating Keanu Reeves and will appear in the next Matrix movie. In other words a figment of the imagination. I...
Lyle Nogood -- decides that tryinig to sell a big sale is really to much hassle and generally unreliable. What he wants is something that will look like a sale...
I've done the same and I can't recall any Lisa's. Women with slicked back hair, tatoos and boots with domestic partners called Pat sure, but no Lisa. This must...
In the play-by-blog EMG I am running, I've noticed that my players are investing a lot of effort in coloring the environment and not necessarily moving the...
Is there a general consensus on the resubmission of failed arguments? A player of mine resubmitted an argument and was wondering if that was really OK. In...
I would suggest that you examine your game design. Your rewarding flavor arguments over action arguments. If your characters have well defined goals they will...
I think resubmitting failed arugments are fine, unless you have someone who makes a preposteroius argument and keeps making it. In that case I would recommend...
I agree it is often boring to see the same Argument resubmitted, but there is no general rule of which I am aware that reduces the chance of such Arguments...
In the classic EMG, if an argument fails, it's like it was never presented in the first place - which can be a problem in some cases, since it might leave...
