[21:53] <Ettin> Oh right new chat thread?
01[21:53] <Plutonis> lemme post the op actually
[21:53] <Ettin> Hahaha
[21:54] <Ettin> Sure go for it
[21:54] <Ettin> It's April!

Last Month's thread!

April is the month of funny pranks and joeks... be sure to bring your inner jokeman out and have some japes at the expense of people... funny posts abound on the place to relax....

Unlike Ettin I really don't want to see quest threads because they pretty much ruined /tg/ for me, but hey, we can agree to disagree!

There IS an official SA contest running through April for WTF D&D, which has prizes and stuff. There is a sticky at the top of the forum. I have nothing to do with it except the odd bit of promotion. If there is a goon contest that is cool too!

April Chat thread: TG Touhou Megathread

Did they ever made a 'Touhou' rpg other than Danmaku Yuugi and that other I forgot the name? Maid is a pretty good system to simulate the 'Touhou' experience...

I know about the WTF contest, but I just wanted to make sure I wasn't stepping on anyone else's toes 'cause I was planning on starting one.

If you do want to run this month, please do; otherwise, I was gonna make April contest about RPGs specifically designed for play by PBP (since it's come up multiple times now, and PBP is obviously quite popular).

What's your idea?

I saw a thing a while back (I think it was on the Forge) called "the character sheet is the RPG", where the character contained the whole game, and nothing else was needed besides dice/playing cards/randomizer. Basically writing an RPG that's literally contained on one side of a sheet of paper.

So the idea was for a one-page RPG contest. You can slice the sheet up, make a pocketmod, one of those paper fortune teller, whatever, but everything: chargen, the character sheet, any GM stuff, and the setting has to fit onto one side of one sheet of 8.5" x 11" paper.

Not sure how much interest there'd be, though. The idea might be too limiting now that I think about it.

Well, there's bahamut's game, Tales of Phantasmal Land. Me and some friends of mine have our own game we're working on that started as a Tales of Phantasmal land rewrite and became its own beast after several mutations, and I know ANOTHER group that took Tales of Phantasmal Land and heavily modified it while still being recognizable.

Alternatively, you could probably make Touhou---or something Touhouish---in Tenra Bansho Zero, but I have no idea how you'd handle spellcards...

That does sound like a neat concept for a contest. Not that I would participate, because I still suck at game design that takes fewer than like twenty pages.

I dunno but Ettin put it on the OP of last month thread and I was kinda disgusted because the only good Quest Thread that existed ever was Dorf Quest.
