This was at high school and we had paper towels previously. The reason we were intent to get hand dryers was that the paper towels had always run out by the end of the day. The way we went about drawing attention to this was to go into all the bathrooms at the start of the day and pull out all the paper towels and throw them on the floor.In post 2357, Errantparabola wrote:N: why was the campaign reviled?
I honestly don't even remember what the game was called (or even if it had an official name)--it was a game created by a group of students as a major project in one of my college classes. I guess it was loosely supposed to be based on D&D and the like, but it was created under the constraints of 1) having to be understood and played by a class of students with little to no experience with roleplaying games (like myself) and 2) having to be played over the span of 2 hour-long class periods. So understandably, character development was basically nonexistent (hence the description of my character being so discordant) and it was generally a big chaotic mess of people trying to figure out how to actually play, with very little actual playing.In post 2357, Errantparabola wrote:racefan: What roleplaying game were you playing?

It was Shadowrun 3rd edition. There aren't technically rules for cooking in the system but that didn't stop me from trying to serve the devil rats we came across.In post 2363, Errantparabola wrote:Aristo and Shadoweh, same question regarding roleplaying game.
We were doing a roleplaying game based on Serenity (the movie continuing the Firefly TV series). The Serenity roleplaying game uses the Cortex RPG system, and has general skills such as artistry, medicine, and guns that your character can develop, as well as special skills under those general skill umbrellas. When making a using a skill, the character also applies the attribute deemed most relevant to the task out of agility, strength, alertness, vitality, intelligence, and willpower. A character with high agility and intelligence, for instance, would be well-suited to shooting a pistol and performing first-aid and surgery after combat.In post 2357, Errantparabola wrote:racefan: What roleplaying game were you playing?
