Jumpin Salmon ? Man, ? Amazing Member # 5755	written Thursday, July 5 2007 08:45 Profile #96 quote: Originally written by Zeviz: Have you considered riding your motorcycle along dangerous mountain roads at the speed of 65 miles per hour? All the cool kids are doing it. As for the ones who end up at the bottom of a cliff, well, they didn't know if they could handle the speed until they've tried. Which brings to mind something I have been thinking about regarding "dangerous activities." Could these be symbolized as a triangle (like a fire triangle) where one point is skill-set, one is appropriateness of tool, and the other is material upon which the tool is being used? In your case, with the motorcycle, it seems that given the right skill set and tool, that 65 mph course is passable with ease. However, with a worsening tool, the skillset would have to get more impressive quite quickly in order to compensate. On the other hand, with a small skillset, either the tool would have to do all the skill work, or the road would have to be different. I usually think of this in terms of vessel size/type, ocean conditions, and skipper experience, but I wonder if it could work elsewhere as well. But in any case, I laughd when I saw you take that extreme. Unless you have Hep, or some other liver disease, a drink of alcohol isn't going to irreparably harm your body. Going over a cliff (no matter what the speed) will do grievous harm, even though you might bounce back. -------------------- WWtNSD? Synergy - "I don't get it."

BOA editor scripts (stairs.) in Blades of Avernum
Jumpin Salmon ? Man, ? Amazing Member # 5755	written Saturday, June 30 2007 12:43 Profile #1 Check out Kelandon's Pink and Pretty Page, linked at the top of this forum. It contains almost all available resources, including the Westra Cookbook. That document contains almost everything that a beginning scenario designer could imagine. Other than that, I would heartily suggest playing a scenario, and then digging into the scripts that make it run, and figure out what each item is doing, and how that is reflected in gameplay.

Jumpin Salmon ? Man, ? Amazing Member # 5755	written Friday, June 29 2007 06:56 Profile #19 In answer to bastard, I mean Dintiradan, there in fact are some words that are considered cusses without being considered to be part of your triumvirate. But honest to God, this whole thing is extremely cultural. Like illustrated by wz.As and then Aran, certain words can be deadly insulting to one group of people, and not to others, and an observer group looks on in amazement. They are just words, and their sole purpose is to convey a meaning prescribed by the speaker. If "**ing hell, you ing maggots better ing clean up this ing hellhole in the count of two" doesn't convey a meaning extremely clearly, I can't imagine what one of you would suggest would do it better, remembering to include all of the subtext of the message as well. And I got a laugh out of the "unseemly bodily function." Because I know that you know that all mammals process food through digestion, and then expel the non-digestable parts from their anus. Just because humans have chosen, mostly for sanitary reasons and our own weak immune systems, to not make public crapping part of our general lives, does not make it unseemly. In fact, I would wager that anytime you hit the porcelein for longer than 3 minutes, anyone you were with knows what is going on, and doesn't give a . -------------------- WWtNSD?

Jumpin Salmon ? Man, ? Amazing Member # 5755	written Thursday, June 28 2007 17:03 Profile #33 I still have a hard time with folks throwing around PDN's like TM and Ed when they have never shared the same space-time continuum with them. It would be much like me tossing around a comparison with Ghandi. While it may be a good fit, I would feel extremely presumptuous to imply that I know that man well enough to use as a point of reference. Of course, given that we are all unique and unaquainted individuals, to make any comparisons at all does a disservice to both parties as well as the comparer. -------------------- WWtNSD?
