And thus did Gustav Kuriga unwittingly fix a bug that could have been exploited. Perhaps I should roleplay him hearing a strange voice named Tom patting him on the back (figuratively).

Don't do that!
Thank your own gods, but don't mention Tom.  Tomism is forbidden.

BM General Discussion / Re: Paint your characters!

My wife designs Halloween costumes for a living, and that's the way she does it—some time ago, she drew up several "models", and she just copies and pastes them into her new files when she draws up a new costume

So it's not cheating: it's the same kind of trick the pros use!

Me, I'm not even skilled enough to achieve what Artemesia did 

Your wife has an awesome job.  But since you will not use paint, you now must post pictures of yourself disguised as your characters.  :-P

Colonies / Re: Best kept secret in BM?

Dominic is right. Outer Tilog is not really an RP realm... just a place to joke around. If I were planning to join a seriously evil realm, I would want much deeper RP than what goes in Outer Tilog. I do apologize to any OT player I may have offended, but it is just a bit of fun. Not what I'd call an RP hotspot.

Which by the way I am planning to create an evil realm on Dwilight, a truly repressed realm.... yum.. 

Well, Outer Tilog is the place that sparked my creativity.  I had to find ways to roleplay someone who could not read or write letters, as literacy is forbidden.  I roleplayed this seriously.  The result was a character that was lots and lots of fun to play, specially when I took it to Beluaterra, to Riombara.  The result was a reflection on how the self-righteousness of Riombarans was actually more evil than Outer Tilogian naiveté.   I think I became a better roleplayer for having been there.

*sniff*

I miss Danira.  Damn Phoebe Anaris.

These are the girls who live in the Far East.  Only one of them knows how to use a sword.  But none know how to draw one.

I'm one of those people who asked for a non-donation way to contribute.  But I think the problem with opt-in advertisement would be the same:  would I be the target audience for those ads, considering it's very unlikely that I'd buy anything online?

I'm not trying to get two characters into council positions.  I'm not that hardcore power gamer. It's just that, well, the situation was possible and I wondered about it.

Can a character with a family member council position lead a rebellion in another realm of the same continent? What happens then?

Yeah, there were characters that were tortured, but there was no Tammo involved.  I'm pretty sure the tortured ones were adventurers.  So, even if IC that claim is strong, the whole getting Cathay involved and there being "signs of torture" wouldn't make sense.

I think it's kind of nasty if you forge game-generated reports and then spread that as if it was the truth.

I don't think it will work.  All puppeteering plans fall apart because at some poing the puppet resents its strings being pulled. Also, because I do not think it is very enjoyable to people in other realms to play along.  So, the empire will fall because it's not cool nor fun.

Wait. Tammo has an adventurer in the family, right?  Are you sure the one tortured was Tammo and not Silan?   It was unfortunately so long ago that I don't have a torture report or anything stored in my actual human memory.  All I remember is that when Ortisia was accused of torturing an Arcaean noble, I said "no noble was tortured" because the one tortured had been a commonner and shouldn't matter.  Now I'm confused, lol. Am I the one with the evil character? (I swear one of these days I'll go schizoid)
