    I! Dig! Giant Robots!
    http://pc.ign.com/dor/objects/18954/mech-warrior-project/videos/mechwarrior_trl_phoenix_70709.html

    Watch the video. See the 'In Game Footage' light. Notice the pre-used assets (Buildings, cars.) Listen to the computer's voice. Watch the tips of the barrels and the buildings.

    The Unseen are back. And they're slow, ugly, heavy, and brutal.
    (Game using the Unreal 3 engine)

    NICE!

    Writer's Block: Grab and Go

    Scenario: For exactly 1 minute, you get access to all the databases of all the intelligence agencies in the world (CIA, FBI, KGB, MI-5, etc). What do you want to find out before time is up and you're caught and jailed forever?

    Zen Parable to remember.
    There was once a man who was being chased by a ferocious tiger across a field. At the edge of the field there was a cliff. In order to escape the jaws of the tiger, the man caught hold of a vine and swung himself over the edge of the cliff. Dangling down, he saw, to his dismay, there were more tigers on the ground below him! And, furthermore, two little mice were gnawing on the vine to which he clung. He knew that at any moment he would fall to certain death. That's when he noticed a wild strawberry growing on the cliff wall. Clutching the vine with one hand, he plucked the strawberry with the other and put it in his mouth.

    He never before realized how sweet a strawberry could taste.

    I did a bad thing on Scans_Daily today.
    http://community.livejournal.com/scans_daily/5084133.html

    I did a bad, bad thing. But it's all in canon...

    With luck, very bad things will come from this. Gee, someone's reading it that works on the Animated Series...

Post these instructions in your LiveJournal along with your seven songs. Then tag seven other people to see what they're listening to.

    Hm. A social science RPG
    http://glyphpress.com/shock/

    Very cyberpunky. Based on the concept of praxis. You get a series of paired traits, like "money/compassion" and a praxis number of, say, 4. You want to buy something with money, roll under 4. Want to awe someone with compassion, roll over 4.

    Penny V2

    windlord.stanford.edu 4626, is rebooting. Crucible City is changing to Mutants and Masterminds 2e, PL10, 180 points, in a Heroes-like 'powers are just starting now, but there's hints of stuff before' like world.

    So I made a sidekick. Nosy reporter. Either one. Based it on Nancy Drew and Rick Jones. Her name is Penelope "Bad Penny" Brown. She keeps turning up where she isn't wanted.
    Seventeen years old, in high school... and she doesn't know she's a probability manipulator. Bad things happen to people she doesn't like. (Nausea, Subtle.) They fall down, they mess up things they could normally do. On the other hand, someone she's rooting for (Probability Manipulation, Fortune) will never fail.
    Oddly enough, a surprising amount of people have their pencils break or pants fall down when they've annoyed her (TK, Precise, Perception, Subtle)... and that doesn't count what might just happen to a supervillain that's trying to hurt her. (Power Control) (Off... on. Off... on.)

    I'm just not horribly satisfied with the build yet. Anyone want to look at this and give some advice?

    Screwing with Andy
    What I tell you three times is true.

    Heh. Heh. Heh.
