Anybody got the time to take care of the OP? It seems to be about ten games out of date in the played list, looks like Obdi's Dresden game is still in the "announced/planning stage" list, etc, etc. I'd do it myself but I'm lazy...

Much obliged. I like the formatting. :)

If my mini, it's a TMDI 2 with one exotic role so maybe technically 4. Min 8 players. More players, more blood. Has a built in clock forcing game to end at specific time and day.

But I'm in no particular hurry. Developed this as a mini just so it could be a filler whenever.

We just did two mind fucky games in a row, I think a Mini is called for.

Oh, also, you can put 'Timelords 2: Rebellion' on the list of games "In Development"

Can we move my "next" Dresden game up to ready-ish.

I'd enjoy a US co-mod to bounce some ideas off of and have go over the setup.

Scenario Harry's Birthday Party in Cold Days on Halloween, and all the implications therein. It will be a faction game with shifting alliegences based on who is alive and who isn't, and player actions. Every member of the 'factions' will have different VC's, but the faction VC's will always have at least one in common, and there will be roles that can leave the game when they win and roles that can only win by being alive when a specific faction achieves dominance (and the game ends).

Would someone be so kind as to change SH password and PM it to myself and Azath?
Please, thank you.

Timelords 2 is ready to go, so you can throw it on the list of games in waiting. I imagine it will have to come a few games after D'rek's 100, but yeah, when we're ready, we're ready!

Khell and I are cooking up a high TMDI game. Could use an experienced mod to shoot down the too off the wall shit, tell us if it will even work, etc. time frame isn't much of an issue. We'd rather a fun quality game at a later date than something so so sooner.

I say cook it and bring in the reviewer later.

Would be my pleasure, but as D'rek says: cook first so it is your own game, then bring in the reviewer.

We passed the first hurdle which is Silencer saying it's technically possible. And besides needing a reviewer, we'll need another co-mod; the nature of the game requires mod coverage 24 hours a day. Not necessarily asking for help with that just yet. Khell and need to get it closer before we start cooking. Thank, xeixei, merci, gracias, danke, spasibo. Once Khell is off vacation, we'll start working out the right questions to ask. :p

ToD design is going incredibly slow at the moment, something with time constraints and wanting to do everything absolutely right.
So as a side project I turned to the mechanic I had for the Iliad game, but instead of a poker mechanic (too difficult), I turned to dice for abilities and a non-magical faux Renaissance setting (which also allows multiple games and multiple factions) that I had once planned to use for my long disbanded RPG group.

I am about 90% finished with the overall design and will soon serve it to the critics for review (Gnaw and Venge have dibs but if they want to play, I'll gladly accept other co-mods :)).

Some of the features that are currently in there:
- choose your own role from 4 archtypes per faction;
- tailoring your powers and actions;
- maps with movement in which locations are of vital importance and can change hands;
- a general ability pool from which every player can execute actions;
- the kingmaker voting mechanic;
- overall, the game is a mix between ToD and Spycraft.

I guess I could run that game somewhere in May / June. TMDI 9/10.

Other than the faux-renaissance theme, that sounds sooooo much like what I was thinking of doing as my next big project :)

I'd be happy to help as needed. I think I'd rather help for the next couple of games anyways. D'rek has pretty much fried my last few neurons. :)
