You on the jazz, man. I hate it when you on the jazz.

On a related note, my boyfriend is running an A-Team game at a con this summer and "On the Jazz" is totally going to be an Aspect. (I think that's what they're called...it's using Spirit of the Century.)

[/ QUOTE ]

Yes, they are aspects. For those who haven't checked it out SotC is a great game. What con is that going to be at?

They also hate standing still in one place all day . I mean, sometimes they've just gotta stretch out.

Also, Castle, I noticed a distinctive lack of pie on your list of likes! That can't be possible--unless you really are Nemesis!

I thought I was the only one...it used to drive my wife crazy when we watched tv more often. She certainly thinks I'm a little bit crazy.

I'm more able to deal with it now...but from time to time I'll still get up and leave the room if a movie or show is getting out of hand.

I'm not sure if "embarrassing" describes exactly the situations which make be feel all fingernails-on-chalkboardy, but it's close!

DragonCon. SotC is awesome, I agree. He's running a steampunk Ghostbusters 1884 game using it too.

They're both up on D*C's gaming website...GB is The Case of the Soapstone Statue and A-Team is Viva Lost Wages, I think.

Please tell me you're doing something about bringing animation times into the damage formula. Please. Pretty please...

[/ QUOTE ]

Before any rumors start swirling -- It's an analysis formula, not anything directly impacting gameplay. Sorry!

Take a look at the PvP damage changes (they're now based partially on animation time) - those changes royally hose some powers and even entire sets (hello, Ice Blast!).

That's a different damage formula. I'm pretty sure that the hosing of certain powers was actually part of what Castle is referring to when he said "breaking in hideous, horrible, awful ways".

I can usually watch it once.

There are some movies I cannot watch a second time if I cannot fast forward them.

Ohh and castle, when you are working with formula X to make it incorporate variable Y, don't forget to account for gravity where appropriate, Einstein forgot to do that once and all those other guys won't stop talking about it.

This just in, Gravity being suggested at being looked at for Controllers and Doms.

I don't think you understand the gravity of the situation...

I have a very strong sense of maintaining some level of dignity, so when it comes to those situations where a sitcom character "sticks it to himself," that's not funny. At least, not "haha" funny, but more like "nervous laughter" funny, and I don't enjoy doing the nervous laughter. Same with talent shows. It hurts my brain when they put people up on stage with the sole reason of them making fools of themselves. No, thank you.
