The Jank Cast / Timo fan club or ...

« on: May 30, 2012, 09:34:27 AM »

Something weird is happening.

First, I steal the "please" birds from the Jank Cast's AP of Apocalypse World.

Then, I name the head of a clan in my Glorantha game "Timo"

Either he has to stop mind controlling me, or I have to stop this incipient stalker-thing I am developing.

Oh, BTW: The Jank Cast is really reaching new levels of goodness.  Keep up the good work.  And shout less.

Also, Todd should talk more about Metal.

Reall good discussion after the show.

My 2 cents:

You were talking about Athena working through proxies instead of just unleashing the thunderbolts.  But read your Homer: the gods are ALWAYS sending proxies to mess with each other and with mortals.  She stands invisible beside Odysseus to shield him from blows, etc.

Humour Mechanics

The little game Elfs from Ron Edwards has a comedy mechanic.

You say what the character wants and what the player wants.

Roll.

You can get BOTH, One, or neither intention happening.

So plenty of surprises and reversals.

It's an irony mechanic.

A wonderful podcast with plenty of good advice for FATE and convention play.

Are there any links to Morgan's documents/playbooks/whatevers that he uses in his games?

The descriptions were great but I would like to see them.
