New XKCD Forums

My parents weren't married when I was born (they got married in 2015, and no, they were together *the whole time*), so any game I mod is a bastard game

No new sign ups for a while so I'm double posting to show the sign-up sheet:

SIGN UPS:

1. heuristically_alone

Time to start the design/balance now the rate of signups has slowed, but sign-ups are still open and will remain so right until we start. We should be starting before October does.

Also: resurrection/rebirth theme. I'm not doing PyP, but if there's any characters / myths / concepts that you think fit it then please submit them and we may or may not include them. I am not opposed to having both the "classic" zombie and the concept of your favourite TV series that got rebooted as roles, so please do go nuts.

Got to go with the phoenix rising from the flames

Flames you say?

I'd love a huge inconsistent jumble of things spuriously connected to rebirth. Such as an evangelical born again Christian tries to convert the city of Phoenix but the city is protected because it recently received an extreme makeover.

Thank you, BoomFrog. You may have just created the nugget of inspiration to create a truly authentic Madge-modded game.

Were you waiting until October to start this?

I am waiting until me and Sabrar have the setup. We are doing it over email and the time zones are not kind to us, unfortunately.

Because we are planning on having resurrection and alignment changes it makes things a bit trickier than they'd otherwise be.

We have made some good progress so far so I'm hoping it'll be a week or so. Which, yeah, would be basically October; sorry.

FWIW we are hoping for another player for balance reasons but I think this won't happen.

Is it not too late for me to join?

It is not too late for anyone to join! Sign ups are open until the game starts.

Very well then.

Bill Murray's character from Groundhog Day?

also, this was the case. i now have the flavour idea. i hope you'll find it as funny and relatable as i do.

setup almost finished. in 24 hours i'll hopefully have finished role PMs and start flavour.

then just need to make sure Sabrar thinks everything is balanced and y'all can get back to hearing RANDOM TANGENTS FROM ME ME ME ME ME

Oooo the flavour looks really interesting. I'll definitely watch the game.

Also, maybe this thread could be turned into the discussion thread?
edit - oh right, discussion thread for all games, not discussion thread for this specific game
