I'm opening this turn up to whoever wants it first - make an argument that advances the plot (and your character's fortunes), specifically explaining how the...
It's really interesting to see how people react in these situations. What's really amazing to me is how the survivors are sitting around complaining and...
Of course, what's really outrageous are the diatribes of the journalists. They seem to think that if two guys with a video camera and a satellite up link can...
The news this morning is a great example of journalistic ethics in action: they scent blood and they are pulling out all the stops - not only are they...
The hurricane was terrible but lets focus on gaming. Discussing this can get into anry politics. Let's not. Instead I'll just give money at Friday Prayer...
... Now if they could just get the stuff from the staging area to the two places where people were directed to go in the first place. I'd say all levels of...
... They can't get it there because there's no way to get it there. The area affected by Katrina is larger than Britain. Almost all the roads are destroyed or...
What does any of this have to do with matrix gaming? I have strong feelings about the hurricane, but don't think this list is the place for discussing them....
... I understand much infrastructure is destroyed and that nothing is easy. But if Harry Connick Jr. can drive from downtown New Orleans to Baton Rouge in an...
Gentlemen, let's drop the hurricane stuff like Chris asked, okay? It really shouldn't have been brought up in the first place as this is not a current events ...
Okay - past subject dead. I would jump into writing for Tim in GPL but it's Friday at 5PM and I have an hour before I have to do an orientation for incoming...
... Interesting stance considering we've always talked about how important MGs are to modeling events like this. (Look through the posts in the previous MG...
"But if Harry Connick Jr. can drive from downtown New Orleans to Baton Rouge in an hour one would think someone in charge would figure out how to get some -...
This group has a history of lively debate (proposal/argument/thesis) on a variety of topics. I would not leave the group if this tradition ceased, but I would...
The very first matrix game I took part in on this board (actually the previous one) was about survivors on an island - both trying to survive and vying with...
Gaming the political fallout would also be interesting. Primarily, you'll have the black leadership and the Democratic opposition trying to gain political...
... I've been on vacation abroad the last week I missed most of the discussion in the group. First, John seriously watch the trolling posts. You did this with...
Like I said in my post - we've always claimed that the greatest strength of matrix games is modelling what closed systems can't. Closed systems by definition...
Snakes and ladders is an interesting metaphor John implies that it is a stupid game. The game is quite old, origingated in India and is used to teach children...
... As someone who opposed the topic I feel that that remark is rather pointed at me! Which is why I like these groups to keep on topic. Peter -- It is the...
... If someone wants to only play abstract games which have no relevence at all to the real world - that's their decision. But we've always presented matrix...
... I wouldn't take it personally, it's a trolling post, and not a particularly good one. I've read ones where someone wants to know where he can by Rohepnol...
I just want you all to know that I've made steps to stop the topic of Hurricane Katrina and the politics associated with it.\ Historically the Matrix Game...
You could develop a matrix ... I frequently include evil characters in my games. As has been said - the only interesting character in Milton's Paradise lost is...
