Great site, especially the location name generator. No longer will I need to think of a name for a place. Also the Fantasy gown generator. But here is my real...
To give credit where credit is due, this idea comes out of a rules light game called WUSHU. The game is very close to freeform, although it has a few dice...
The more I think about freeform gaming, the more I think it's a bad idea for GMs to play in their own game. I don't know why that thought just came to me, but...
You know initially I was like, "Yeah, that is a great idea." Then I thought about what posts in the past would I veto. The one that struck me was one the...
... Would it be better to have a system in place so you could freely object to the first post? Ignoring it didn't seem to help. Would having explicit rules...
... That's never a good model - especially if the GM is playing in the game. I encouraged my players to speak up - to tell me when they thought I was off-base...
... I'm not quite sure where veto came into it. But you are concerned people would get pissed off if veto power is used. Yeah, that could be a problem....
WUSHU is a face to face table top game, so you don't have the same logistics problems. I can see how this could be a problem in play by post. Still, so many...

Is anyone actually paying attention? Or are you all, like, running games or something absurd like that. Anyway, if anyone is actually reading this, I'd like to...
*blush* Thanks for the welcome. I do indeed co-moderate Hogwarts Hocus on Livejournal. I have little to no tabletop experience (like, a friend of mine got...
Welcome, Prima! It's not that we're all busy, it's that we need fresh meat! Uh, I mean, fresh discussion ideas. Please tell me you've got a player or game...
Of course we read this, every day I think, "Damn I wish I had a problem that I could discuss on here." Then I think, "Well I think I'm glad for that really." ...
I feel it is important to make a confession. I've been using another player's character in my own game without his knowledge. So what is the same. The name is...
This is a character in the same game? Or a character from another game? Either way, break out the ice packs, my friend, you're going to hell. *lol* Ok,...
Different game. It was my own fault, when I first used them, I meant to only use them once, so I was too lazy to change the name. But they worked so well as...
In an attempt to try and keep people thinking on things and to ask random questions. Your character and another player's character have known each other since...
... I'd be OK with it. Provided I knew the other person's playing style well enough. I guess it'd also depend on the story somewhat. If it makes my character...
I'd only allow such a thing if both players worked on it in advance just to avoid any grief or such. ... -- --I know there are no lifeguards in the gene pool,...
From the clinical definition, I'd say that does count as controlling someone else's character. You're defining their past, however insignificant the part,...

By imposing a childhood acquaintance upon someone else's character, that might already count as controlling someone else's character. :o) It would be a larger...
Yes, it could be considered to be controlling the other player's character. I've kinda done something similar a few times in the past, where my character has...
