Thanks. That sounds very reasonable.

I might make it 6-7 even then, it's not a terribly complicated game.

Your welcome. Also, just a bit of advice... update regularly. I made the mistake of not doing so and well, now I'm having a bit of trouble getting it going again. Mainly because of my own laziness.

Just curious, but what is your RTD going to be about?

I hope to update regularly - I get lunchtime at work etc to spend on it as well as time at home, and I have the story vaguely planned out to an actual conclusion.

It is about being a Gentleman Spy in Edwardian Britain.

It is already about, I should clarify.


edit: how regularly do you think is regularly?

Depends really. Also, darn. Is there a spot for me left? If not, waiting list. Color me interested.

If it hasn't already been said- FALLOUT RTD

Every player would either be part of a faction, ie. Raiders, Caesar's Legion, NCR, etc. or they would be scavengers. You would have a few things to begin with that would all be pretty mediocre unless you are part of a major faction. I'd expect it to be with about 10-20 people in it, and for private faction doings, you'd probably have to PM me, or something of the sort.

Sound fun?

It's been said almost as many times as the zombie RTD, which is the most ubiquitous kind of RTD there is.

That said, it could be interesting, though 10-20 is insane.

No, 10 is certainly possible without insanity.

20, however, is downright impossible unless you dumb down the game to the bare 1d6 and only allow the most active members of the forums to play.

Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

Name one sane person who has an RTD with 10 people in it.

(This is of course a trick question as there are no sane people on bay12)

I have nine in my RTD.

I've had 12 before in the Spaceship RTD (check my started topics), and it lasted a little while, before dying due to poor GMing on my part. Not due to having too many players.

And I believe I'm sane*, so...

*Or at the very least saner than you.

That was a complete and utter disaster of massive proportions that we can never be rid of.

Shame we never got to use that 'extended overshoot' system though.
