Poll: Password protected scenarios: what do you think? in Blades of Avernum

New designers tend to feel very protective of their work. Older designers realize this is just silly. I passworded Isle of Boredom, Ugantan Nightmare, and Deadly Goblins. I left To Live in Fear, Revenge, and Areni open.
Really? If I remember correctly, not only did you password Revenge, but you included messages in the scenario that gave false directions to confuse anyone trying to hack the scenario.
Unless I'm mistaken, but as I myself had problems with that message when I forgot the directions Kassand gave me, I'm fairly certain I'm not.

Well, there's currently a very Spidweb-General-like RP at Polaris now called League of Little Old Ladies. Maybe you should check that out. It seems interesting enough. I haven't joined it yet, but I will after I return from work today.

What things are you looking for in a scenario? in Blades of Avernum
Shaper
Member # 73
Profile #3
I like to collect artifacts. I prefer artifacts without custom graphics, because those with them can't be taken between scenarios, but I could take a few of those too, because there are some empty slots in the item sheets. But they should be interesting items, not "OMFG YUO OPUN TEH CEHST AND THEER SI SORD OF SUPARKIL!!!1!1!!" items. If the item is tied in with the plot somehow, that's best. A really good description is sometimes good enough though.
Of course, in order for an item to be tied in with the plot, a scenario has to have a plot. The plot is one of the two most important parts of an RPG, in my opinion. Make sure the scenario has a strong plot, unless it's a utility scenario or something that doesn't need one.
The other most important part is combat. The combat should be interesting and challenging, but usually not impossibly hard. Bigger monsters don't necessarily make combat more interesting. They usually just make it longer.

However, if you are a good graphics artist (as in at least as good as Andrew Hunter) he may purchase the rights to graphics from you. Also, if you are good at making sound effects, he may purchase the rights to those from you. Other than that though, it's not likely.

I don't hate you. But that's because I'm completely oblivious to what goes on around me. I thought Shotts was well before my time until Alec or Drakey or someone pointed out that I had actually been there through the whole thing.
Anyway, Jethro, welcome to the community. As long as you don't behave like a blithering idiot, I hope you enjoy your stay. If you do behave like a blithering idiot, I hope your stay is incredibly unpleasant.

Vahnatai Graphics in Blades of Avernum
Shaper
Member # 73

Didn't you recently make a post where you told everyone not to take you seriously? Make up your mind.
Okay, suggestion. Vahnatai don't wear dresses. They wear transluscent ponchos. Transluscent means you can kinda see through it. Basically, I'm saying you should make the clothes less vahnatai-shaped and more poncho-shaped, and that you should be able to kinda see the body under the robes.
Also, some shading would be nice. And shrink the first one's head. Fingers would be nice too.

TM actually did leave in a bout of anger once. He came back a month or two later (I don't actually remember how long) to support Logalot in the Misc. moderator elections.
As far as I know, TM didn't show up in 2001. He first joined much earlier, I think. It's just that Spidweb switched from Ikonboard to UBB in September of 2001, so that's the earliest you'll see in the Registered field.
And I would hardly consider myself an oldbie.

EDIT: I think this holds the record for the most times I've ever edited a post. I think I just edited it about 8 times. :)
