Role Playing

[psychotic_mechanic]

As far as tabletop gaming we usually play heroscpae, risk or scrabble. I am the scrabble king. I worked nights at a state-side hospital for a couple years, which if your specialty is psych means you sit around waiting for something to happen. Our department head at the time didn't like us playing "spades" because it was bad for our "image as a department in case someone comes in", meaning that if we were playing with cards we were an uneducated bunch of gorillas. She mandated that the only game we could play was scrabble, so I played at least 4 hours of scrabble every night for a couple years.

It's funny some of you mention playing it online. Jim (one of the guys I play with) said that the only way you can really play Roll Playing online is to have a webcam setup. He doesn't like the idea of computer or electroinic dice, and really if you're going to use real dice you have to show what you rolled.

Also I'm really suprised at the range of dice. I went to get a block of D6 and Jim who was with me bough a set of die that were made of artifical opal. Another set he showed were like crystals, the 20 side just rolled on one side and was a cool dark blue.
