Now I wanna get one of those tables that's got an lcd screen below it's surface...full size!  Can you imagine?  Instead of just using a monitor..hook that shit up to the table!

Yes, yes. It always starts out all cookies and cream with Pat. But before long, you are broke, paranoid, hungry, and ready to place a fireball on yourself..... and it's cold again.

Heh heh!  As opposed to One Ear, where you don't know who, where, what, and why... oh and zombies, somehow there's always zombies.

We used to have a forums-based game. I'm willing to try that again, either on these forums, or on the unused-since-losing-data RPG.EXTREMESIMS.COM (http://rpg.extremesims.com/forum) site.

Hmmm... I'm not sure I would be as interested in a forum/text based game.  I'd certainly give it a shot though.  I think the virtual map combined with the ventrilo would be super cool.

What we do, usually, is lay out all the history and background, get up to the exciting parts, then play in person - we can try Ventrilo.
