Jean would get a pension if she moved today (a pension that exceeds what I get paid by ADB). The longer she waits to move, the more pension she gets (which she'll need to support all of us).

Hummmm.... about 6 minutes (04:28 to 04:34 pm) not a record, but then we don't want SVC sleeping on the job unnecessarily!

All in all I'd rate the second whang an '8' and the first whang a '9'... hard to rate the pain score, SVC is said to have an absurdly high tolerance for that sort of thing so it is hard to quantify.

By Reid Hupach (Gwbison) on Wednesday, April 14, 2010 - 06:38 pm: Edit

Heck I enjoy a good whanging

Jeans whanged me all sorts of times

Never really had any problems

Must be the hard head

By Jeff Wile (Jswile) on Wednesday, April 14, 2010 - 08:00 pm: Edit

Reid, (shakes head sadly)

Some times I think Jean is too much of a lady for this job... when she whangs someone, it is invariably for just cause.

You, on the other hand, have the bad habit of "one to a customer" thing.

In other words, when you whang someone, they tend to stay whanged. (or hospitalized with a permanent drooling problem!)

No chance for education, remedial training or corrective procedures.

All things considered, I think its for the best that Jean keeps doing what she has been doing.

By Jean Sexton (Jsexton) on Thursday, April 15, 2010 - 09:02 am: Edit

Jeff, part of the goal is to keep SVC up and functioning. Knocking him cold is counterproductive.

By Jean Sexton (Jsexton) on Thursday, April 15, 2010 - 10:16 am: Edit

I just renamed this topic to make it more generic. I don't think we can produce a GURPS magazine, a PD20M magazine, and other RPG-specific ones.

By Terry "Full Stop" O'Carroll (Terryoc) on Thursday, April 15, 2010 - 03:51 pm: Edit

Makes sense. I suppose a general background could be used in common, and RPG stats for each system included in an article, where appropriate.

Ever thought of just publishing it as an online magazine or a downloadable pdf? That way you claim being green. ;-)
Modular Prime Alpha is available as pdf over at the SJ Games website and it looks great.

By Steve Cole (Stevecole) on Thursday, June 03, 2010 - 07:09 pm: Edit

If you check the topic, Tom, you'll see that's been asked before.

The reason we haven't done it is lack of manpower. When Jean moves to Amarillo in 1d6 years, it will be something that happens.

I would hazard a guess that we'd sell hard copies and PDFs.

By Tom Vallejos (Gurps_Gm) on Tuesday, June 22, 2010 - 03:58 pm: Edit

OOPs.
Sorry. Didn't know.

By Jean Sexton (Jsexton) on Tuesday, June 22, 2010 - 08:49 pm: Edit

It's OK. I want to have some sort of PD magazine or e-zine, but only when I can do it justice.
