Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Rabbit Season! Duck Season! [Chat] Season!

Time for an epic space quest to fix it![/Hubble II: Hub Harder]
I was under the impression that New Orleans still held that title, but I suppose Katrina did take a massive toll.
Dubai has a pretty busy port too.
How many were aspiring actresses? Los Angeles is a much more major league business venue than San Diego.
I assume any of the major hotels would be able to accommodate that
Also it's for five people.
I think it might be a good way to experience these stories.
Hopefully I do not get teh nightmares.
Loads of fun, and cheaper than paying someone to punch you in the nuts repeatedly.
Click here for a horrible H/A thread with details.
San Bernadino is 59.7 miles outta East LA Andover an hour drive in he freeways. D you cnsider Phlly a part of NYC? Baltimore and D.C.?
er.
well, nobody pays me to write code :rotate:
The first time I heard "Tekeli-li!" spoken aloud it creeped me out.
I still think Mountains of Madness is my favourite story. Lovecraft is great at portraying his dislike of the cold and how atmospheric the place is.
none of them i guess. i don't have many friends trying to break into the entertainment industry.
I have... VH and.... VH.
it doesn't seem like he's pursuing that too hard anymore. i mostly just hear his f&g story.
Always reassuring when there's evidence to suggest that aren't just fleeing to Morocco with your £15
That's true. I guess "had" would have been more accurate.
Just let the hotel know and you'll be fine. They will arrange for a mini fridge.
how many games have you backed? which ones are you particularly looking forward to?
Actual Play: Mage: the Awakening - At the Edge of All Things
Go big or go home I guess.
Nah havent had a chance yet. Tonight is my first free night since I've been back but I really need to spend it doing laundry, cleaning the house and stuff like that.
I will probably get something going this weekend.
Conflicted between doing some more Lord of Vermilion or cutting my teeth on gundam pods.
my thoughts exactly, tosh
Veronica Mars
and FATE Core. I need Shadow of the Century like oxygen.

No
Physical distance is not as important as cultural distance.
eg. Conroe, Texas is a similar distance from Houston and is very much part of the Greater Houston Metropolitan area
i didn't even breathe
I've backed nine in total. Of which, eight got their funding.
M.O.R.E. and Predestination are the ones I'm most excited about (as I really like 4x space games). The former has gone utterly dark though, so that could be money down the hole. The latter give semi-regular updates. Both of these were minor devs and represent large gambles.
Maia is the game that's just given test build access, it's kind of a Sim Hospital / Dungeon Keeper type affair but with planetary colonisation as its theme.
And Dubai is in the US? My claim is a but broad, as it takes the entire counties ports into consideration, but the shipping industry is still massively huge here for some reason (a lot of political shit has played into it.)
California itself is the fifth largest economy in the world. If it's corporate taxes weren't such a bloodbath, and we had all our companies get poached by Delaware, Texas and Mexico it really coulda been so,etching awesome for the entire state.
Luckily, a lotta tech companies were able to tough it out, and built in roads with their favorable tax incentives to build campuses and infrastructure in the state. One of the few things I'm jealous of you and KC Kosh is the google fiber.
I'll call Keifer Sutherland.
The funding wasn't for a concept in development or even with a working prototype: It was simply to give him the liquid assets needed to reprint books he had already written and sold before, so it was easy to believe he could get it done. His stretch goals were simple (more books reprinted, extra bonus stories etc) and he keeps in communication about status updates, and the inevitable delays are explained and understandable (especially when he shredded his hand on broken glass which forced a four month hiatus on him). Nearly every other Kickstarter I went on to back I had that shard of doubt wondering whether they would deliver, but not that one.
First taste is often the best, I suppose.
twss, etc

I don't have fiber. Net infrastructure here is bleh.
and I really don't understand why you're expounding "LA has great industry"
Of course it has great industry. I never contested that.
It's still an area with serious environmental concerns re: water that generally tends to act as if it doesn't.
edit: as for Dubai, it's in a desert
It's from a well known developer but is kind of too niche to be worth going through the standard boardgame process.
He has the rules and stuff you can print out to play a print and play version of the game.
The kickstarter is mostly to secure funding for artists for the cards and the board and stuff.
Nothing wrong with giving advice. The trick is knowing when they absolutely don't want it, and to stop when they ask.
I believe the shipping is part of the asking price for this kickstarter, but, for some areas (likely me!) I'll have to throw in more.
But seeing that the only way to get this game is pretty much via the kickstarter I have to go for it.
And San Bernadino and Los Angeles have nothing in common culturally. They're in different counties, and were founded hundreds of years apart.
This is not any different from Conroe and Houston
