Re: the Merv concepts... I like this, but there's things that have me going "Hm..." for several reasons. I like the idea of Perse finally growing a spine and socking it to her husband for being such an expletive-deleted to her for so long....

First question: I'd love to see more "Animatrix" shorts and more "Matrix" comics, but I would also like to see prose novels written as well; there's a ton of backstory we only know a little bit about and it would be a fascinating means to...

It's most likely going to be at its regular date and time: last week was a bit out of whack due to RL things coming up.

Customer service representative at a grocery store... when I'm not out staking sparkly-skinned emo vampires.

A warm welcome back to the simulation and to the family goes out to Balletic, crewmember on board Tsudo's ship, the Amygdala, and to ZylaV2, who just returned to the Quinotaur.

I'm hoping they at least change the Oracle in the mission to some other character (maybe introduce the Priestess, aka the lovely woman in white who answers the door in the first movie when Morpheus and Neo meet with the Oracle). But yeah,...

Creepy... will be keeping an eye on this...

It's more do-able for me if it's at 7 PM as well.

I'm a total agreement; I used to co-GM a fan-created Matrix RPG back when MxO was in Beta and I was saving for a new comp to be able to run the software. I still have a lot of left-over ideas I want to run with, and now that I have the cha...

Yeah, my boss called me at 7 this morning and told me he didn't want me slipping and falling in that snow (his words!) and it was likely to be a dead day since we're snowed in, so I could take the day off. Thus, I'm home writing and typing...

I've been posting most of my stuff to our faction's forum, but I generally stay IC most of the time that I'm jacked in. We generally run a lot of small in-house storylines, but we mingle with other factions when we get the chance.

We really do need something like this, and it would be a good way to bring certain things to the table and to touch base with the community to see where we want to go... However, I can foresee some of the big egos taking this as an oppurtu...

Very good idea, but the problem is that someone is likely to abuse this by activating the consumable during an event (tournement, party, etc), though the fact thatit would work only on a hostile player would probably help keep that from ha...

This TSR sounds interesting and I'll be keeping an eye on this... however, I'm a but skeptical about them, since they've dubbed themselves "LESIG 3.0".
