Originality and I are not always on speaking terms ;-)<br /><br />I don't know how well 4e would work online. It is very combat based, and movement/range is important. The role playing rules are virtually non existent, which is fine since there are no real rules necessary for such. You might try out "<a href="http://apps.facebook.com/neverwinterheroes/" rel="nofollow">Heroes of Neverwinter</a>" if you are Facebook-positive. It is a slight departure from 4e, but much of the mechanics are in place. Not really a collaborative game though. Might be a good primer if you wanted to play in the Meat World, scary as D&Ders can be!<br /><br />As for the other games... I could see the Maiden game working out, even without a GM, as I believe the characters are in competition, and there is a lot of submission/humiliation to the stories, so as long as players had some sense of balance it could work out without one; that or one player just be the antagonist placing others in awkward/dangerous positions. I could totally see Shon Richards playing that ;-)Darius Whiteplumehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17950956139088139753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3614342822943299288.post-38485072988131390472011-11-02T08:30:39.365-07:002011-11-02T08:30:39.365-07:00Well dang, I totally stole your blog title and the...Well dang, I totally stole your blog title and then I got found out! Paint my cheeks red! (I'm enjoying the new webcomic, by the way, though I don't know why clerics would get no love, they're the uberest character class out there!)<br /><br />I admit that I've tried a couple of D&D-style games online, but they fizzled very quickly. As your latest comic points out: no one ever wants to be the gm. If you've got a game that's more a collaborative story than an actual game with stats and rules, then players can wind up DMing themselves, without having to depend on a time when the DM is online, and whoever happens to be online at any given time can just interact however they like. Especially if they're like me and have a million or so NPCs in their pockets to draw from!<br /><br />Now, that being said, if you *did* wind up playing any of the above mentioned adventures online, and wanted another player... (wink, wink, nudge, nudge, saynomore, saynomore!) I might even actually attempt to learn 4th ed!

It seems mostly story driven, and I believe is Kindle only. My old review <a href="http://adventuresinnerdliness.blogspot.com/2011/05/nerd-girl-of-note-114-aishling-morgan.html" rel="nofollow">here</a>. There is also "Trollbabe" which is fairly dice independent. I think there is some rolling, but is primarily story based. I don't think it is for sale any longer, but the PDF was not hard to locate. My review <a href="http://adventuresinnerdliness.blogspot.com/2011/09/premature-game-review-trollbabe-ron.html" rel="nofollow">here</a>. I think both would work online, particularly with all the virtual dice rollers out there.Darius Whiteplumehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17950956139088139753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3614342822943299288.post-28237752022629732102011-09-29T12:40:01.781-07:002011-09-29T12:40:01.781-07:00This comment has been hidden from the blog.Madeline Elaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15869227638200564350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3614342822943299288.post-87876781340005348432011-09-27T18:09:50.169-07:002011-09-27T18:09:50.169-07:00This comment has been hidden from the blog.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3614342822943299288.post-89807024926961316732011-04-22T11:23:13.122-07:002011-04-22T11:23:13.122-07:00This comment has been hidden from the blog.Madeline Elaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15869227638200564350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3614342822943299288.post-84639236463264467222011-04-22T11:02:57.389-07:002011-04-22T11:02:57.389-07:00This comment has been hidden from the blog.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12777733587200293442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3614342822943299288.post-69166765877215459472011-04-12T17:30:06.144-07:002011-04-12T17:30:06.144-07:00First of all, I'm having some very non-stereot...First of all, I'm having some very non-stereotypical feelings about the picture you used to illustrate this post. Butch-on-Butch love is a phenomena that still goes against the grain of butch stereotypes.<br /><br />"... it takes a conscious effort. DON'T ASSUME." You say it's easy, and it is, when it's something people choose to do and feel is important. Lots of people don't unfortunately, which is why posts like this one are important. <br /><br />I think we should all work toward greater choices and less pre-defined boxes. <br /><br />And I like pink too, because it looks good on me, not because I'm _____'fill in the blank with some label'.Kylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02374683393555661026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3614342822943299288.post-91076465709429569302011-04-11T17:54:35.994-07:002011-04-11T17:54:35.994-07:00My father also did all the cooking growing up, and...My father also did all the cooking growing up, and still does for all the holidays my parents host.
