--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 08:10, 9 June 2009 (MST) MAYBE WE SHOULD MAKE IT SO ONLY THOSE WHO LOG CAN POST?
+
 
+
[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] seems like some bot has our number.  It's so sad that there are bad people in the world.
+
 
+
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 09:12, 9 June 2009 (MST) It is unfortunate that the rest of the world can not uphold the same high moral standards that I myself practice.
+
 
+
JASON: All of these posts are from logged in users.  Its a lot more difficult to stop bots who actually create users, but I have done some research and hopefully I can get some better security measures implemented this week.
+
 
+
--[[User:Dieterthebold|Dieter the Bold]] 11:08, 9 June 2009 (MST) Can we just delete members who aren't us and then close registration?
+
 
+
== [[Mass Effect]] ==
+
 
+
 
+
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]]--Alright then my offical proposal is for Mass Effect.  Keeping the pirate stuff ready for one shots.  Is everyone okay with this?  Are all players on board?
+
 
+
--[[User:Dieterthebold|Dieter the Bold]] 16:25, 5 June 2009 (MST) No arguments against Mass Effect universe. What game system are we using? What kind of campaign (colonists, survey/mining!!!, military, corporate)? Those are more important to me than what universe (pretty much).
+
 
+
[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] hook and game feel are most important for designing a campaign appropriate character.
+
 
+
'''GABE:''' I'm going to present some hooks, and I'd like the players to say which ONE they most like and which one they DON'T want to play.  This is much as the player's game as it is mine.
+
 
+
I believe we will STILL use the WH40K system.
+
 
+
--[[User:Dieterthebold|Dieter the Bold]] 12:19, 6 June 2009 (MST) I'd like Smuggler most followed by Citadel. Least of all would be Specter/Shadow Ops.
+
 
+
'''GABE:'''  Smuggler was actually a joke... After two games of that I was pretty sure we didn't want to do that, plus an entire game built around it is hard.
+
 
+
[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] Interested in Citadel because it would/could be sci fi minus the space ships, seems that the citadel is huge also, so you have lots of possible sci-fi other worlds possible, but contained on the citadel.  i've frequently found our space combat systems to be rather hap hazard, and also it alleviates the "Captain, Navigator, Engineer" paradigms which i despise.  "Artifact" Dealers - totally interested in this, in fact, i made a character specific to this game type previously..... unfortunately none of the other characters/players were interested...so meh.  Shadow ops - meh.  Spectres - meh.  Bounty Hunters - i love Cowboy Beebop this could give a kind of episodic game type, but you could have some underlying plots...like cowboy beebop; easy hook, risks lack of depth.  Noveria Secuity Detail - could be interesting, lots of possibilities in there for high tech, aliens, ancient powers.....  Pirates - meh.  Smuggler - NOOOOOOOoooooooooo!
+
 
+
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 12:43, 7 June 2009 (MST) Yay, input!  Alright so just need Ben and Matt to chime in.  Yes, I was a bit worried about space combat as well.  However after reading about how space combat works on the wiki, it is quite hard to actually have a full on battle.  If one side starts to loose they just jump, and at that point it is impossible to catch them or track them.  So most space combat happens at key points.
+
 
+
Also just so you know, Artifcat Dealers would be about selling them, nothing to do with ancient religions or anything like that... (because there is actually a religion in the game that thinks the Protien (sp?) tech is all holy and should belong to everyone...)
+
 
+
[[User:Matts|Matts]] - I like Artifact Dealer, I like Smuggler assuming the authority structure is well defined.  I'm down with Bounty Hunters too, but not as much.  Citadel seems to me to defeat the whole purpose of the space genre, but hell, I'm ok with that too.
+
 
+
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]]-- Matt, is there any one of the options you most certainly don't want to play?  I hate to say this guys, but please do not count too much on Smuggler.  Or if anything, it will not be the main focus, maybe something people do on the side?  I suppose in a way Artifcat Dealer and Smuggler kinda could go hand in hand, eh? 
+
 
+
Well we are Sci-Fi, not just space.  Citadel is its own world, with crime and what not (as seen in the game where you have a freaking shoot-out at a bar).  Of course, if your on Citadel... there still needs to be a focus.
+
 
+
--[[User:Dieterthebold|Dieter the Bold]] 10:07, 8 June 2009 (MST) Smugglers or I'm not playing!!<br>
+
 
<br>
 
<br>
 
<br>
 
<br>
Bwahahahha.... I kid of course. I'm down with Artifact Dealers. Seems like a solid baseline to tie everyone in together. Gabe, would you mind if I had a sideline smuggling operation going? One man, maybe? And Matt, I think it could work if we're doing stuff on the Citadel and then jaunt off-world every now and again to personally take care of something big.
 
 
[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] do we want to have our own ship, Serenity style, again?  This is how the game ran with Space Opera and Gemini, small ship crewed by the characters.  Is this a pre-requisite to a Sci-Fi game for folks?
 
 
'''GABE:''' You're funny Dieter, thats why I'll kill you last.  Yes, I think smuggling would work fine with a lot of the options, bounty hunters, artifcat dealers, your guy wants to smuggle shit on the side?  Totally fine.  While having main goals for the whole group, individual player goals are also important... but.  I will not allow a player to derail the entire group for his goals.  He can get them in trouble, yes, but no hostage taking.  ("Oh yeah?  Well we are going here otherwise forget you all!")  Don't want it in the game, so don't plan on making a character who will at the drop of a hat always go out and do his own thing.
 
 
And yes, own ship is fine.  Or could even make the first few adventures you all getting the ship.
 
 
[[User:Matts|Matts]] - I guess I just didn't really like the Citadel in the video game; those were the parts that dragged the most.  Leave it to Bioware to make a space station that big and then make it feel like hicktown USA.  I suppose that the setting can be appropriately expanded.
 
 
But I like space ships.  Especially after Star Trek.  So I like options with space ships more.
 
 
'''GABE:'''  I also fealt the Citadell wasn't treated very well for what seemed really cool at first.  Yes, I think a spaceship is needed.
 
 
Um as anyone noticed that since we linked to their wiki on our main page we've been hit really hard with spammers?
 
 
--[[User:Dieterthebold|Dieter the Bold]] 14:27, 8 June 2009 (MST) Spam does seem to be up. And I can certainly understand reluctance to play on the Citadel based on the game, but I think space stations make excellent bases. Here's a fun thought: We all run an Import/Export business together specializing in rare artifacts and the like. But each of us has our own particular take on it. I'm more into the less legal side of things, Matt's all about making the spaceship runs to pick things up/drop off/escort. Ed like's to import criminals for great justice. Etc., etc. The business is the tie that holds us all together (along with other more personal backstories, so we're not just in it for the money), but we each have our own intertwining interests. If people don't mind stories being somewhat coincidental (oh, that criminal you're hunting seems to be hiding on the planet where someone says they have a rare artifact for sale and also has a burgeoning black market) and Gabe can handle denser plots, then I think it's something that could really work.
 
 
[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] sounds like gemini.
 
 
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]]-- I'm not running a game where five character's have a different take on a business.  It sounds nice but I know how we play, there will be, and needs to be, a stronger group goal.  Having each person always trying to do one thing that is different then each other player is just not going to work.  As Ed said above.
 
 
--[[User:Matts|Matts]] 09:19, 9 June 2009 (MST)Hey, can we throw out the end-of-game twist in terms of where the mass effect relays and the citadel come from?  It'd be nice to have them be all mysterious.
 
 
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 09:34, 9 June 2009 (MST) I have yet to beat the game, but sure.  I'm guessing the citadel is actually a Reaper?  I should be beating the game this weekend since my dudes are so powerful I just chew up everyone anyway.
 
 
--[[User:Dieterthebold|Dieter the Bold]] 11:14, 9 June 2009 (MST) You're close, Gabe. The Citadel is indeed more than meets they [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_AIFoBRIny0 eye!!!] And I'm totally down with it all being much more mysterious. Actually, it just hit me that I would be hugely excited about this if the we were all Artifact Traders/Hunters doing something similar to the game. We come across some pimp artifact and are suddenly tracking a millennia old trail across the galaxy. Exploring strange new worlds, killing new and exotic lifeforms, and uncovering terrible secrets best left undisturbed. That would be awesome.

Lyra told us where to find the freezing Tears of _____ so we can put out the dragon's breath, right before she extinguished the eternal forge flame in our temple (bitch) by sucking its soul out like a vampire.
