Hey! Dave Hyatt who worked

Hey! Dave Hyatt who worked on Mozilla (and has now moved to Apple) wrote the Shadowrun supplement Renraku Arcology: Shutdown. I don’t know which of the two is cooler (probably the Mozilla stuff, but I like Mozilla more than I like Shadowrun), but this strikes me as major geek cred.

Diveintomark uses Google for searching

Diveintomark uses Google for searching the site.
However, if you have a domain, you can probably just search it using the “site:domainname.org” as part of the query, no?
Tried it on google.co.il with www.sf-f.org.il. Seems to work.

Campaign Updates and Rejection

Pounding away at my campaign website, I’ve transfered the contents of the Word document “recaps” to a Movable Type blog: Knights of Time, Kings of Space.

Also, I made some photo trumps of the minor characters, i.e, the Sisters.
Those did not go over well – the image I chose for Pauline was deemed ugly
(after last time Lara Flynn Boyle was said to be “too skinny” – and I wasn’t
that fond of her myself. Although Miller has come around after seeing her
in Men In Black II).

This pretty much shattered any confidence I had in playing her, actually.
It’s like your buddies saying some girl you like is ugly (it’s not “like” that actually – it’s that). So the session
went pretty poorly.

Being called up mid-session by Hadas who was getting
hysterical about the ICon poster design also messed with my mood.

Thank god for Anger Management.

Later, Bo looked at my trumps and said “they all look
like cheap porn actresses”.

“But they’re dressed.”

“So they look like porn actresses in the ‘before’ shots”.

I give up.
