Okay a quick set of comments before I jaunt off to work.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=72345.msg3236197#msg3236197">Quote from: Haibane on 03-07-2010, 12:53:19</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">1) We all play Dead Reckoning.

I love zombies. However you're right some players will run away to go play other things. that is completely acceptable and thanks to those that bow out gracefully. You being able to make such adult decisions is, I think part of the reason you are here in the group discussion to begin with.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=72345.msg3236197#msg3236197">Quote from: Haibane on 03-07-2010, 12:53:19</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote"> 2) We use Dead Reckoning as a basis of our big game and add some tweaks to draw in the Unbelievers! *does stance thing with bible wave* That would probably involve adding something smutty or D/s'y though I'm not convinced that would work too well. There could well be a D/s lifestyle pair caught up in the mess (which could be interesting). Or the zombies attack a BDSM club. Hm. Right. Maybe not...</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>OH JOHN OH MARCY OH JOHN!.......BRAINS!!!!! CHOMP! kind of a mood killer isn't it. The problem with mixing horror and erotica is everyone knows the rules: If your not a virgin you're monster food. Kinda kills the whole care free "who cares, lets screw" mentality. So smut tends to die down or not really be present in most horror settings. Supernatural settings are fine but horror not so much.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=72345.msg3236197#msg3236197">Quote from: Haibane on 03-07-2010, 12:53:19</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">3) We announce two games to be run (Dead Reckoning and Hunters Club - why does my odd mind keeping seeing the spoonerism of that and calling it Cunters Hub?) and everyone is free to choose either both or none.</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>I definitely agree with the others here. To me this looks like our best option. With a talented and diverse group such as we have here, inspiration and tastes are going to run the spectrum. What is sexy for one may be taboo for another and likewise what intrests some may bore to tears another section of the group.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=72345.msg3236197#msg3236197">Quote from: Haibane on 03-07-2010, 12:53:19</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">4) We chew over the results some more and see if its practical to merge more than one idea into a setting that appeals to everyone (by virtue of option #2 above this most likely would not have many or indeed any zombies in).</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>If we are going to merge thing I would suggest merging some of the high greys. The data seems to suggest to me that the games had some appeal but were lacking in something. Perhaps that could be fixed by merging ideas or with a minor adjustment in settings, such as adjusting Past Lives to midevil or Arabian setting<br/>so more of the group is familiar with the culture.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=72345.msg3236197#msg3236197">Quote from: Haibane on 03-07-2010, 12:53:19</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">On a downer note though I cannot help thinking that with the skills and minds here we cannot come up with a better idea than 'zombie attack' or 'slave club'. Which is what those two themes boil down to. :(</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Of course we can. The thing is in this group you didn't ask for original ideas you asked if there was something we were dying to play with a great group. The truth is several of us have wanted to play and in my case have even put forth a couple of times a solid horror/action game and a solid Smut/BDSM game but we never really found the talent to pull both of those off. We'd have a few good scenes in pages of crap or they would die of because no one was posting or kept dropping out just as things had gained momentum. I have at least 3 more ideas floating around in my head currently for games so It's not that we cant think of anything better its that we really want to play these with you guys! At least that's my opinion. Your milage as always may vary.<br/><br/>~Nos~
