Saw this on Mr.Lux's LJ and gave it a go. Diappointingly, I also came up as...

You are The Magician

Skill, wisdom, adaptation. Craft, cunning, depending on dignity.

Eloquent and charismatic both verbally and in writing,
you are clever, witty, inventive and persuasive.

The Magician is the male power of creation, creation by willpower and desire ( Read more... )

Those of you interested in my forthcoming Vampire roleplaying campaign might be aware that I decided to base it on the real lost city of Dunwich, which fell in to the sea following the storm of 1287 which led to the harbour silting up and the abandonment of the flood defences. In my game the city was not destroyed, and in fact propsered another 700 ( Read more... )

Christmas is coming...

A while back over on Christianforums a messy argument broke out over a controversial verse of the Bible:

Matthew 23:8 "But you are not to be called 'Rabbi,' for you have only one Master and you are all brothers. 9 And do not call anyone on earth 'father,' for you have one Father, and he is in heaven. 10Nor are you to be ( Read more... )

Another amusing clash with armi and the sceptics over on the Most Haunted forum. We were dicussing, as you do, the case for ghosts ( Read more... )

Well I'm up, and after a brief conversation with Leisure Games, who seemed a bit hassled and busy, I am back on the computer. I've been trying to explore the different meanings of scepticism over on the MH forum , and I think it's worth posting here ( Read more... )

While I am thinking about stuff, I went to the excellent Parasoc psychic research group Christmas buffet last night, and ran the quiz. I left quite early and hurried home to catch Most Haunted from Mains Hall, Lancashire ( Read more... )

OK, anyone who ever reads my LJ must by now have worked out I spend more time on roleplaying games than practically anything else. Today I got Primetime Adventures yet another fascinating piece of indie games design. It cost $20, and to my mind was well worth it, if only for making me think about how rpgs are constructed. I've read less than ( Read more... )

Well Lisa is back at work, and I have to pick her up at 5am. So do I stay up all night, or just try and get some sleep and risk not waking up? Bah! I shall saty up. I was always a night person. :) I tried to run Cthulhu tonight with kanrol and ben and helen ( Read more... )

Well, what the title says. :) It's snowing, and actually starting to lay. Might be a bugger for those with a long drive home: I have to walk Lisa in to town and that is bad enough.

I've mentioned the landlord/letting agency dispute on CJlist so I won't bother repeating it here.

As there is some enthusiasm for the Vampire the Requiem game I'll ( Read more... )

Well 24 hour drinking is here, and maybe Blair was right. Despite all the hype, all the fers, and my certain belief that this would lead to Sodom and Gomorrah twinned with Babylon-on-Sea (I was kind of amused by the prospect) in fact I have been out the last couple of nights and well town is dead. There has been so few people out there it's been ( Read more... )
