An Experiment

I've been thinking about the strengths and limitations of the tabletop system. For one, tabletop does a fantastically better job with anything action-related: jobs, tavern brawls, searching for stowaway hobos--you name it. However it lack on the interpersonal relationship end. The Signal's format had much the opposite problem: lots of personal drama, sucky action scenes.

In the name of science, I'm going to try to split the difference. From now on, if the current plot permits, feel free to do Signal-type RPs in between game sessions. This way you can flesh out your characters at your leisure while still having bar brawls on Sunday.

For instance: The next game session will start when the crew gets to Persephone. You guys can RP out scenes that take place between them leaving Beaumonde and them arriving in Persephone, so long as you edit the scene and post it on Broadwave after. We'll try it for a couple of weeks and it it works out, we'll keep it. It not, it was worth a shot.

Feedback, questions or comments? Post them here.

Resources

Hey guys. Just a small post today. I would like to call your attention to the list of links on the right-hand side of the page called "resources." Since this takes place in the Signal-universe, I brought over the planetary guide from The Signal and put it under resources. In the future, I'll probably put up a make map of Underdog and whatever else I think of that might be useful. If there's anything missing you'd like up there, let me know and I'll see what I can do.

Spring Schedule

Holy crap, guys. Did you deliberately create your schedules in such a way as to eliminate any overlapping openings? As it stands now, there's no ideal time judging from what's been posted here. The least suckiest time period seems to be Sunday evenings. So, unless any of you raise any objections before then, the new time slot for Serenity is

SUNDAY AT SEVEN PM


Mark your calendars. Pencil it in your day planners. Call your supervisor and tell them you have a standing appointment with your AA support group, parole officer, oncologist, or whatever lie you have to invent to be there every week. Your fellow players are going to depend on you to SHOW UP and BE ON TIME. I'm going to depend on you. And if I find out I can't depend on you and you didn't tell me in advance, I'm going to be explosively pissed off at you.

Our first meeting will be on January 21. Be there.
