Heh - I've occasionally said that the purpose of dice is to keep people honest about what their characters can and can't do. And I think OP will be great for a game like yours because you and your players can come into the wiki and jot things dow…

Heh. Heavy on the technology? It'd make perfect sense if a high-technology world were brought down by bugs. =P

Well, by Texas standards I'm not too far away, so hi. =P (I'm not looking to join your game; I'm just looking to be a smartaleck.)

in Forums... yay.... February 2009

My group wouldn't use them. My first Florimel campaign, maybe - we did a lot of discussion over email between sessions. Well, half of us did at least. Now only two of us chatterboxes are in the new campaigns, so not so much. What's been happen…

in Some Questions February 2009

1) I do not know of any censorship. Back before the wiki redesign, when the campaign itself had a tagline, I did put a warning in mine that my writeups would be rated R / M / TV-MA for language. I expect that as long as you kept your front page cl…

in GM-Only doesn't mean what I thought it did February 2009

One problem I noticed shortly after the RSS feed was introduced (and maybe it's been taken care of) is that people were able to view GM-only pages if they were announced in the RSS feed. I inadvertently saw some of Florimel's plot notes for a futur…

in What ive learned in my 10 years of DMing or KISS rules to DMing February 2009

The last paragraph is one I've heard many times, and I agree, but I also think the "next time" needs to happen as quickly as reasonably possible. Make sure the PCs know that their actions didn't happen in a vacuum - the bad guys are wise to this tr…

in Hello from the Foggy SF Bay Area February 2009

Hi Tasha! So what do you think of the Champions Online game, or have you experienced it? I'm currently playing in a HERO system campaign (Florimel will convert D&D mods to HERO, he's that much a fan), and one of my gaming buddies is also a big…

Hello, and glad it's working out for you!

in Linking in Race: field of character page? February 2009

The race field of a character file cannot interpret HTML or Textile links. The "crunch" and "fluff" fields will accept HTML links if you want to just make another mention of the character's race there. I didn't try Textile links, but I don't expec…

SCIENCE! BRB with an answer. ;)

in GM Only vs. Public ? February 2009

Well, just going to your site, I see three NPCs. Keyra, King Vhullie, and the Witch of the Waste. This is me looking at the site as a non-player. Don't know if that gives you any insight or not.

Sorry to hear Chrome isn't working like you'd like it to. At least you didn't have a buggy version of "Google Crom":http://www.somethingpositive.net/sp09032008.shtml. =)

in New User Greeting from Australia February 2009

Hi Stephen, It sounds like you have questions about a specific campaign. Obsidian Portal itself is a repository for several different campaigns. I hadn't heard of anyone using it to archive adventures in a Living campaign, though - especially i…
FemmeLegion
in Greetings February 2009

Oh wow. All I can say is good luck with that. I didn't even try to archive the campaign that was running when I first found the site, because there would be too much to remember, and that campaign ran for just a shade over a year. Admittedly I wa…

Are you going to be face-to-face only, chat-based, hybrid? My housemate adores Rifts, but he's the only one who really knows the rules and the setting, so he's always GMed in the past and he really wants to play for once.

in Links back to the campaign January 2009

Also, there should be the "Home" and "Wiki" tabs in your campaign. They kind of vanished from mine, but I reported that as a bug. And scrapped that wiki because I had hit a wall with it at that point. =) "Home" is, IIRC, what the banner will li…

in Hi, from Ireland January 2009

Hello! The nice thing about having everything set up and archived here at Obsidian Portal is that you can hang on to it until your players are ready and interested - or you can try to find new players altogether. =)

in Slew of simple ideas January 2009

Hi Unniloct! Personally, my favorite use for the "entire page GM-only" feature is to keep a page out of sight until I'm done with it. I can't abide publishing a half-done page, but I don't always have the time required to finish it before it's r…

in Hi, I'm new around here (yeah origional title eh?) January 2009

What's been really funny in my experience is when my DM decided to run a 4th edition game. People are looking to ME for rules help because I've played a few sessions more than them. I feel like the kid who is called upon to tutor her classmates be…

in To game online? January 2009

I am also a big fan of face-to-face gaming, mostly because I'm impatient and I feel like things resolve faster in person. However, it's perfectly reasonable for your parents to be concerned about going to a stranger's house to game. Assuming they'…

in 4E - Powers, not Treasure January 2009

The RPGA has "power cards", one of which is Second Chance. It only allows you to reroll if you get a natural 1 on a skill check, not an attack, but it's still pretty nice to have if there isn't a power card more directly suited to your character.

in Hello from Albuquerque January 2009

There's a tutorial about Textile that will show you how to make things display how you want them (more or less). When you go in to edit your wiki page, there will be a link to that tutorial. I think the most important thing for which I did not s…

Ha - as opposed to me, who kind of wants to throw the whole "world is going to be destroyed" angle into the game. But hey, I have a good reason! =P

Did you intend to make a Homestar Runner reference? =) Glad you found us, and glad it sounds like it'll work out for you here.

in Hello, from Minnesota January 2009

"since I can do it from the beginning" I am right there with you. When I discovered Obsidian Portal, I was hip-deep in two different campaigns, and there was just NO FRIGGIN WAY I was going to be able to chronicle everything that happened in the…

in Made my first magic item... January 2009

Oh, I'd argue that making a history for a +1 sword will occasionally cause your players to hang on to it and develop attachment to it instead of just selling it off for gold. One could also write plot hooks around it - perhaps a descendant recogniz…

That is odd. But please sate my curiosity - did you remember to use double brackets instead of single brackets? I know I've had things disappear off pages because I tried to enclose them in single brackets instead of parentheses.

in Linking halfway down a page. January 2009

You want the NAME attribute in the A tags. I'm not going to go into any more detail than that because I'm not in a place where I can open another tab and see if NAME is a supported attribute. When you're editing a wiki page, it'll say textile an…
