The Isolatorium: The Dream/Magic tier
http://slave-state.blogspot.com/2014/12/the-dreammagic-tier.html
Saturday, December 6, 2014. The Data/Magic tier is a subspacial dynamic quasiplane sandwiched between the DataBranes and the MagicBranes which permeates the warped eight dimensional model of Narcosian. Spacetime according to the rules of Hoffman M. While it's true purpose or reason is unknown to most scholars it's primary common use has been to serve as information storage/retrieval, personal connectivity and FtE (Faster than Ether) communications. Rea In the modern day however these im. Terrifying. ...

Aggregate Cognizance: Twitter Circle Jerks and Social Marketing in RPGs
http://rivetgeek.blogspot.com/2014/06/twitter-circle-jerks-and-social.html
Friday, June 20, 2014. Twitter Circle Jerks and Social Marketing in RPGs. This is going to be relatively short and sweet. I don't pay a lot of attention to social media marketing or what's expected to be "best practice." But from some forays on Twitter and whatnot I've gathered the pattern for guaranteed success is:. 2) Ask them to reciprocate. For example, say you've gotten a few thousand people to follow you on Twitter. But it's only. Life Beyond the Twitter Circle Jerk. Reconnecting Is Harder Than It ...

Aggregate Cognizance: Reconnecting Is Harder Than It Sounds
http://rivetgeek.blogspot.com/2015/07/reconnecting-is-harder-than-it-sounds.html
Tuesday, July 7, 2015. Reconnecting Is Harder Than It Sounds. So, I've been kind of away for a while. Physically, mentally and in other ways. But I recently got the itch to reconnect with my life-long friend and hobby of roleplaying. So I started looking at my G feed again (which, honestly, is. This time, I’m not finding a whole lot to get my roleplaying engine revving. The Mekton Zero Kickstarter still hasn’t delivered. Neither has Exalted 3e. I logged into RPG.Net, skimmed t...Maybe I'll find some insp...

Aggregate Cognizance: Five Ways Roll20 Is a PITA
http://rivetgeek.blogspot.com/2014/05/five-ways-roll20-is-pita.html
Wednesday, May 14, 2014. Five Ways Roll20 Is a PITA. But, there's some warts that I've uncovered using Roll20. 5 Really, I Work In IT. So far, nearly every session has run into some kind of technical error. Mostly on my side, which is sad because I'm a certified PC technician and a fucking MCSE. Finding developers who aren't great on the hardware side isn't hard, and from the network issues, sound issues, and random random crashes I've had you'd think I was one of them. 4 Where Is That Setting Again?

Aggregate Cognizance: Mecha Games: Are The Mainstays Really Complicated?
http://rivetgeek.blogspot.com/2014/06/mecha-games-are-mainstays-really.html
Monday, June 30, 2014. Mecha Games: Are The Mainstays Really Complicated? So, something came up recently where someone called Mekton Zeta overly complicated. The word "crunchy" was used, as well as a bunch of hyperbole about having to calculate gigawatts to drive generators and such. In systems like Mekton Zeta or Silhouette there's going to be some domain knowledge or system mastery involved in making the right. They're really not that complex. GURPS Vehicles? That's complex. MegaTraveller? So aside fro...

Aggregate Cognizance: October 2014
http://rivetgeek.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 31, 2014. The Intersection of Ingress. So aside from having a baby in September - which actually made August extremely busy as we bought things, cleaned the house, and had various appointments and whatnot - in July I started playing Ingress. I really should say no more. Those Control Fields don't just create themselves. I'm not sure which G 'er got me onto this hamster wheel, but whoever it was they are totally to blame. It might have been Topher Gerkey. Is around here now. Roll20, and vi...

Aggregate Cognizance: July 2014
http://rivetgeek.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 11, 2014. My Blog Post Sharing Is Needy And Unjustified. Nearly everyone who writes blog posts wants those posts to be read by somebody. Otherwise, we wouldn't write blog posts at all and instead would sit on a bus bench scribbling in notebooks, with the occasional outburst of barely stifled laughter. Then, there's this guy. I see he hasn't appeared on Top Elf. S Nice list yet.I wonder why. That was a comment on my post to one of three. Links to this post. Thursday, July 10, 2014. Every one ...
