I can agree on the first two, but I'd think this one could be Adventure :)

You've presented some strong arguments and I'm going to have to think

Jim,
Your system is very interesting but I don't like it. Maybe according to YOUR
definition of Adventure it encompasses all fantasy-style gaming, but this is
not the commonly accepted definition of the genre. As I see it, adventures
are games where the focus is
Although this talk about genres is fascinating, I'm gonna start a new topic (I hope
noone minds).
I spent some time a few weeks ago talking to C.E. Forman on the phone. We covered a
multitude of topics, but the two that were the most interesting are below. I'd like

could get together to swap stories, share a meal, and perhaps
even bring along some of our prized collectibles to show to

John,
Think long and hard before you get rid of your Synergistics on ebay!
Financial gain aside why would you do it? In a few decades the infant
hobby of computer software collecting might turn into a mature,
mainstream hobby. By selling these titles you would be removing a direct

Yeah, that's not a bad idea. I do have several copies of the same games
in baggies, though. ;) Sure, it doesn't hurt. I was just wondering
what a Dungeon Campaign might go for. Heh.
BTW, I fixed the problem with my getting duplicate emails. I had
duplicate rules in Outlook so it was filtering
Oh, doubles, that's another story.

Making games today isn't like the old days. Teams of 15 to 40 people are typical, and
project managers are necessary for a team that size. I've seen many times where a
programmer has a great game idea and therefore also wants to act as the designer or
project manager. In the past a person
To add to what Joe wrote, my cousin currently holds a management position at
a plastics company. If we can get a large enough order to justify the
expense involved, I'd be glad to talk to him about a production run, see
what's involved. (Haven't gotten around to it yet, Joe, this Infocom

So far, the tally is as follows:

Dan-100

Of course, I won't hold anyone to these numbers until I could get a more detailed idea
of cost--but I don't want to call any vendors until I can assure that there's enough
Now that I'm on the west coast, I won't be making the Philly classic. But
if anybody wants to arrange something around E3, that would work for me.
