Polaris Needs You

[benlehman]

As I just posted on the Forge, Polaris is nearing completion, and now I need help from other people.

In short, I need -- playtesters, layout guy, ad swap, serious readers.

In long, see this post

Contact by commenting here, or whatever.

Thanks to those that can help!

I'd love to read it. I'd like to playtest, pending my current group's willingness to set aside an extra game night.

Hi! I don't know who you are, actually. I have a hunch you are one of the FATE guys. Is that true?

Oh, dear, how rude of me. I'm Brendan. I read the Forge much more often than I write there, and I've been intrigued by the posts about Polaris (I actually bookmarked the 1.0 playtest PDF a while back but never got around to reading it). Does awareness of the forum discussions disqualify me from being a serious reader?

I am not, sadly, one of the FATE guys; my own design work is currently in the cocktail-napkin stage. I write very short stories (http://www.xorph.com/anacrusis/), I run a community game blog (http://www.xorph.com/dispatch/), and I play Nobilis with some people who respond well to beauty and horror.

Oh! Anacrusis guy! Cool. I like your writing a bunch.

P.S. Also, Nobilis is the bomb. In that it explodes, and kills people.

Man, that might be the coolest thing anybody's said to me all year. I like your writing as well!
