Read those rules.
Seems that a maid's worst enemy is another maid. That a viable strategy is to use those random events to try to get a monster to end another's run.
Perhaps munchkins are coming.
Won't be there unless I get a ten year old mac to run hamachi, a decent chat program, and probably some other stuff. Will we be doing this in map tools?
Yes.
Why?
The mac I'm using can't run maptools...
The basic floor plans are attached here. The grids are for size reference.Would you accept 3x grid size of your floor plan with <1.6MB? (Complete with furniture, floors, inner/outer wall, shine outside, and third floor.)
I've got everything I need now, so I should be ready for some sessions.
Cut: We're definitely going to need a new DM. According the Encounter Chart rules, we're not suppose to have more than five Maids per Master. Since I rolled up a Mansion, I'll be happy to DM a round for those who couldn't get into Pesco's Game.With practice, I don't think it's impossible to have a good game with 7 or 8 maids at once, and I get the feeling that some players are going to drift away anyway. Maybe the GM should just throw extra enemies at us or something. I'd support two games for different time zones, but there's no need to split us into smaller groups.

oh dear can't complain about it elsewhere because that would be totally irrelevant to the current topic of that thread
and I guess it would be my fault that I missed the huge fucking tramp spanning 25 square miles next to the 20 story building I was jumping from because you decided to move it a little away from me
when I left the server and came back later, and after a small but mind-numbingly long scene, I thought that "hey looks like all the fluff is over, guess I'll do something other now rather than standing around and spouting something occasionally"
and that's the moment you pushed the tramp away and fired me
so I spend a few hours at rolling and rerolling, making notes and filling the sheet, only to be kicked away from the game I had high hopes of the next day in less than one and half hours, just for ignoring redundant events and waiting confirmation to execute the given orders. each event had a elaborate reason to be avoided. first event was a religious shitstorm with shinyjam, ignored it because I don't like religious shitstorms. I just woke up from a COMA when the second event happened, and everybody else was ALREADY doing the same event in a clusterfuck. it's beating the dead horse. ignored that too for arriving too late. I looked at the logs and it became better and better later, just what I was excepting.
so I apologize for my inability to give a damn on redundant events or already solved ones, stuff that was "my fault" and "buggerall behaviour".
I'm not coming back to your or anybody else's in this forum shitty game, I just wanted to address a few things to you.
bawwwww

I prefer normal rules, since again, Stress should play more of a role in these games (Remember, Maids don't die)
Also:
4. I propose a strict 1 game per person limit. The reason for this will be apparent in Serp's Log. The short version of the reason is this:
Games with Fewer Maid are Better
There's a lot less Chaos. There's a lot less everyone doing everything at once, and it's easier to follow. And, everyone gets a chance to develop their Maid's Backstory and how it related to the other Characters. In Serp's Game, there are only Four maids, and after the obligatory Troll battle, we decided to seperate and have different Scenes played out one at a time. Serp and Trance talked about the future together, Xan and Wrathie seduced and made love to each other, and I had an inner monologue about the complexities of Human life. It was awesome. Every time.
We should start, of course, by deciding which game you choose to play in. This should stay relevant to your time zone, ideally.
1. Initiative
I have suggested that for Initiative in battle, we roll 1d6*Ath
However, Serp has suggested that we roll either Cunning or Luck instead since Athletics plays a large role in battle anyway. I suggest we either stick with one of the mentioned stats, or allow the player to choose between Cunning and Luck.
2. Damage
The normal rules of battle state that Damage is done by this function:
1d6*(attacker's Ath)/(Defender's Ath)
however, Pesco's battle rules are done by the following function:
1d6*(Attacker's Ath) - 1d6*(Defender's Ath)
We should choose one:
The disadvantage of the regular style is that you cannot completely block attacks. The Disadvantage of the Second style however is that Stress will wind up playing much less of a role than the game intended.
3. Moving
Particularly jarring in these battles is that people seem to move about the mansion instantaneously when that shouldn't happen (There are powers that let people do that. Really shouldn't be a default ability). This also was a personal issue for me since in the second battle with ninjas in my game, I intended Mori to participate in the battle, yet before I finished setting up initiative, Naoto (wrathie) had somehow managed to drag my character into the house and to the basement.
We should start, of course, by deciding which game you choose to play in. This should stay relevant to your time zone, ideally.
I'd favor using 1d6+Cun or Lck, to increase the random factor.
If I recall correctly, the default system just compares the combatants' 1d6*(Attribute), and the one with the lower result takes the winner's role divided by his own Attribute in Stress. Also notable is that there is no initiative or position in space. We're playing an unholy bastardized version of the RPG, that's certain, but the result is fun, so I'm not inclined to complain. It'd probably help to rebalance it somehow, but I think that the Pescian system is a superior starting point for our purposes.
We need to compromise between the needs of roleplay scenes and the needs of battle scenes. I suggest two entirely separate systems. The battle system would restrict battle movement to, say 30+(Skl*5) feet or something. The roleplay system would require a player to announce his intention and give the relevant parties the chance to prepare before moving into an occupied room. That seems like a good solution to me.
I'd suggest urging people to join no more than two games at once, not including games GM'd. I'm not sure that this is the sort of thing we should enforce with an iron rule, but it is true that with fewer meido in the game, character development is a lot easier. Perhaps a limit of five meido for a starting game would be good, though I think that once the characters are established after a few RP sessions, newcomers should be allowed.
Anyway, I ought to post the log of our game. Be warned, it contains incredible amounts of failure from myself. In my defense, I can only say that I had decided to run a game at the urging of my peers, and with only a couple hours of frantic preparation. The result was apparently pretty fun for the players too, but I really have to attribute that to their very constructive play, more than the situations that I set up.
Oh man. I was at this for over six hours today, breaking only briefly to eat something.
I actually Envy Serp not participating in this round since I'm sure this will definitely affect how much people will want to lynch me in Yume nikki.
Log attached. Also, Next game will be on Monday (I need to recover)

Tee-hee.I thought you might be amused by that choice of name. :P
The additional Persona bonus should be only for personas, not the person itself as it will be really broken with additional stats off the bat, not to mention you'll have to tweak the system.Is more like tiny push, like extra credit that barely help you unless you are really close to it.
the attributes is very very limiting, it makes combat hard unless you can prove so otherwise. I suggest for each maid roll the same and the persona using the stats u are saying + the bonus.Highest possible stat is 3, Two of the stat boost are your choice, that means you will have at least one stat at 2, from my experience, everyone can do well with 2. Persona can use any attribute to attack so combat is not hard.
u'll have to take notes. besides tt all is coolI love taking note, expect your character status screen to fill with gm notes.

Alright, I'm intending to host the second session of my game about 48 hours from this post. I'd like confirmations from Zakeri, TranceHime, Xan, and wrathie, that you four will be able to play then.

My game's starting its next session in five hours!
we are sory Kerigis!! I swear next session i will do less RP and give the honors to u and Ruro and her Akihabondagerapesceneand Zak too
and screw you, ruro! That was due to the dice!!
Now, I'm gonna read the log. When's the next session going to take place?
LIKE IN 3 HRS SERP. WE ARE WAITING
Tell me when to go and I'll go.We're discussing it in IRC right now. I'm not ready to host at this moment, but I'm working on it. I should be ready, in, say, an hour and a half, if we have everyone present and willing by then.
So, same time as yesterday? This is an awful lot of fun.
Whew. Two nights in a row. At least this one was shorter.
Anyway, here's the log. Some of my players have been floating the idea of starting at the same time tomorrow. I wouldn't mind that. If you're in, say so here.
Also, I'd like to propose another house rule. Every stat increase would have an additional modifier based on the number of stat increases already purchased. So, your first stat increase would cost 10*(New Stat) favor, the next would cost 10*(New Stat)*2 favor, and it would increase linearly from there. I've toyed with the thought of exponential increase, but that might be a bit much. Anyway, I'm proposing this because I don't want the meido in my game to get super powerful really easily, so I've been holding back on favor awards. I want to award favor at the proper times, though, so I'd rather change the rules on the stat-purchasing end, instead of the favor awarding end. Maybe I'll include another way to spend favor points, too.
He can't make it for the next game, which is 9-10am on Thursday, which is Wednesday night for you guys unless it is held 1-2 hrs later, he expresses that it would be nice if you guys can start at 8am, which is like 6pm for you guys for him to wrap stuff up and scoot.
Gah, I thought it was Saturday and Sunday. Regardless, I wouldn't have been able to make it since 2PM is during school for me.
It started at 10:00 for you...
To Xan (7pm, Fri, Sat)
To Astral (Japan time 11pm Fri, Sat) (Canadian Time 11am Fri, Sat)
To Ramus (2pm, Fri Sat)
suggestion.. can we hold Xan's game a few hours before Serp's game?thou that means Serp will have to appear earlier...
I'll wake up like what i did for Zak's game
Notice: My game is up in half an hour~
I'm here and ready to run my game in about six hours.
Is this a new game? Can I join?
give me a break.. it's more of Nanaya + Maid VS GM
Wrathie is requesting that Serpentarious start his next (Today/Tommorrow) session 1-2 hours early so that he can participate. Is this allright?
The cake is a lie.

Some house rules I'm thinking on: Firstly, setting the favor cost to just be the average of all the maid's abilities times ten.Times ten is too much, it would be range from 10-40 favors. Thus giving the strong much higher advantage than the aff X2.
Provides a catchup mechanic for maids with poor stats, and also gets rid of the absurdity of spending the same amount favor to go from 0 to 3 as 5 to 6.For game that use addition rule, it's good as it is, but those that use multiplication rule will need to either give more starting ability to off set the player base's stats or gm create non-bias event that will be advantage for low stats. I still remember my first low stat girl getting verbally attacked by everyone the first thing in the game introduction. >>;
I also like the idea (I think it was originally Shiny's) of granting bonuses upon reaching milestones in stats. I'm thinking that in my game, reaching 6 in any ability will grant some bonus in combat.
Lastly, the thing I feel it need to revise is the Seduction system.
and i'm going to kill the clown who edited my username again.
I'm interested in trying this out now that I have some time to spare. Can someone tell me if there are any games open and what I might have to know? (I've already read the rulebook, btw). My current timezone is GMT+7. I'm free most days except late on some evenings (beyond 6PM) and weekends.

Read Trance's game setup, he is GMT +8 and so it might work.
Probably weekday nights

I played this online for a total of ten posts before realizing that the players were more interested in having a pseudosexual bondage experience more so than an actual fun game.I understand your pain, should be fine in most games here...unless eromaido turn into a cybersex feast. :V
- This game is created to fill in the gap where there is no game running.
5. Teams can compete with one another, especially in some special competitions. If this happens, the Group will have to come up with a Role play skit that will be POSTED IN MOTK FOR JUDGING.

Ahem... Sounds like fun, I guess. I would definitely like to take part if you ever actually ran that game.
