General Discussion / Re: Things that made you sad today thread.

Acquaintance of mine started a business recently and won't stop babbling about "growth" and "success" and "thinking positively" while they work something like 16 hours a day.

As far as I can tell their business is running successfully, but there's a creature before me who only speaks in buzzwords where a man once was.

Is there anything motivation speak can't ruin?
No. No there is not.

Yet another Harry Potter is preaching satanism website
The WTF is that it goes from something that you'd find in a well written English essay to "A phoenix, favourite symbol of Freemasons like Hilary Clinton."
I ... this website. This website. No. Will fix. Must fix. No. Website is illogical. Must fix. Must fix. Must fix...

Non-jokingly though, only go for it if you think you can handle it. I understand it can be rough on a GM handling two parties at once.

Is there talk of having two groups? As awesome as that sounds, I do fear for a GM burnout. Too many RP's that have died on me, I'd like this to live :P)

Well, the longest thread I've ever ran hit, oh, 6200 pages, with a regular "Plot Night" were I'd have to coordinate at least six people, writing multi-paragraph replies with each of them in different positions. This also involved getting done with a MEGAREPLY, hitting "refresh" and then seeing that two more people had added paragraphs, and then adding a few more lines. This usually also involved a side character at the default location interacting with non-quest PC's.

I'm pretty sure I can handle two parties of four with the shorter post style we have here, provided that they make it easy on me by specifying [Party A/B and Location] at the beginning of their posts.
Wow. I should be able to do that, and I can amp up the RP provided I have sufficient free time.
Could you link us to the thread in question? I could do with some reading.

Hrm. So, at sanity one, everything that the player sees nothing but his own insane hallucinations? I actually like that. Though I would like another consquence to sanity one.

Also, by sanity one, I mean it's the bottom of the sliding scale of sanity. 10 being "normality" and "ten" being sanity. When you roll 1-2, it means that you simply cannot come up with an excuse for your actions or the actions of others.

EDIT: IDEA! The RP I'm going to put this involves hunting an utterly sadistic, morally reprehensiable person from a list of others, all with their own unique style of craziness. Maybe at sanity one, your character starts to think like the very person he's trying to kill?
YES

So wait, what if the pc is a cynic convinced that the world is bad? Every act of kindness would reduce his SAN. :P
