>I have new respect for Bob now. Thankyew! >Writing rules is a >new form of linguistic hacking I have never experienced before, and it >is eye opening. :) This is why, whenever possible, I try to avoid actually writing rules in favor of less brainstraining stuff like background flavor. Of course, my most recent book was like, 40% rules. (Even when you skim out the overhead found in 780K of MS Word files, that's still a lot of rules. I hate writing rules. I always know I -- and my playtesters -- have missed some obscure combination or cross-reference somewhere that won't show up until four years later when some rules lawyer with a magnifying glass finds it, and which subsequently blows up the entire system... <sigh>) -- Bob ------------------- You must remember this, a bris is just a bris.

>>Heh. Thats when you get to Make an all new EDITION!. :) > >I should be so lucky. Nothing of mine has ever made it to a second >edition. No matter how hard the fans have campaigned. Perhaps the fans just need to give it a new spin? *smirk* Seriously, Bob, never give up hope. It can still happen. >-- Bob Edward A Becerra |

>considering how much Bob... complained... about >making the book I don't think its the fans that decide >whether there is a second edition. :) Oh, it's not Shifters I'm talking about, but my first book, from 12 years ago, IST. I've been graciously CC'ed on so many write-in campaigns for that one... <sigh> Anyway, this has drifted far, far off topic. If anyone wants to continue discussing this, feel free to come to my forums at http://pub21.ezboard.com/bdrunkardswalkforums -- Bob ------------------- You must remember this, a bris is just a bris.
