... I'm afraid this list covers mostly pencil-and-paper rpgs, not computer ones. So, no. Kiz -- http://www.kizandjenn.com http://www.kizandjenn.com/art/gallery...
... I would suppose rules design for rogue-like games would be marginally on topic. Anything about programming or strategies for specific games, however, is...
Hello all, sorry it has taken me so long to write an introduction about myself. I am Mydnight Sylver and live in MO. I am a single 30 year old female who is...
... Welcome, but be warned, this group is primarily for paper&pencil games, not computer games. While you might get somedecent generic game-design advice,...
Hallo, I can't find the URL for your dice results analysis program on my disc or in the link section of rpg-create. Would you please send it to me? I've some...
... The program is at my homepage http://www.diku.dk/~torbenm , more precisely in the file http://www.diku.dk/~torbenm/Dice.zip . You are welcome to put a link...
... I had to look 'atavism' up in the dictionary - not a common occurrence for me. 1. The reappearance of a characteristic in an organism after several ...
This is very intriquing: I had played IronClaw as a Player, but had never purchased (nor by extension thoroughly read) the RuleBook...... I believe I may need...
Hi I am new, and just wanted to say Hi. I have played D&D and many White Wolf. I also play EQ2 if that makes a difference... not sure. I really like the White...
Umm...time for an FAQ? Relating to this, how much overlap is there between this mailing list and forums like indie-rpg?...

... As Brian said, it is really time we made an FAQ. In the mean time, browse through the archive and look for articles/threads with interesting names....
... It's a really good idea to familiarize yourself with games already 'in genre" for the game you wish to write--this way you have some clue about how games...
Agreed. I think we need a FAQ specfically for these type of questions as "where do I begin" seems to be the most common question that newbies ask. However, at...
I seem to remember I tried to formulate a kind of easy recipe for rpg's based on the way I planned and constructed my own. However, if so, it is gone from my...
One of the common refrains I've seen is that people want to make their own RPGs, but I can't recall why any of the newbies WANT to. It's just "I'm excited,...

... My urge is always to send them to the 24 Hour RPG site--go write an RPG in 24 hours! Once they've done that many people will now know where to start, or...
"What is your motivation" is usually the first response in these cases. I've seen some pretty good replies in this list that address the "what is your...
This seems to be mostly a forge-related site. IME, forge people are most concerned with defining player interaction agendas. Would it be possible for this...
From: "JAPartridge" <japartridge@...> ... Hah. (That's about all I have to say in response, other than questioning WHICH of the 4/5 sites given your...
I was refering to the wiki. I am a bit leery of this list and the forge list playing in the same sandbox without an agenda conflict. ;-) On Apr 11, 2005 11:38...
... I plan to do a one-evening RPG design workshop this fall, and I've thought about what constitutes an RPG. What I've come up with is this shortlist: 1....
From: "JAPartridge" <japartridge@...> ... Heh. Nice pun. But, seriously, you do realize how many regular members of this list also participate regularly...
Sure. But I also wanted to include those who don't. I've got nothing against the forge, and I find I generally agree with their conclusions. But not everyone...
... We do OK. That is, a lot of Forge members are former members of this list, or (like me, Raven, Travis, John Kim, for example) are concurrent readers. BTW...
