So someone offers to run Buffy on the RPGnet PBP forum and just about everyone who wants to play has abandoned one of my PBP games without so much as a "bye".

Yeah, this is what happens when I have months to think of the next adventure rather than a week or so.

With three days to go, I've finally seen the Conpulsion ad on RPGnet.

I'm shocked - Shocked! - that it took two replies...
... for someone to mention TWH in this RPGnet thread.

Got in from the Succubus Club at 5am, ate from the all-night room service menu and went to bed. Since I thought I might be flying (I'm doing that tomorrow) I naturally lay awake in bed enjoying my aches and pains, so I got up for the closing ceremonies of the Grand Masquerade, was baffled by the workings of the Camarilla for an hour, met an RPGnetter, applauded people, considered the possibility of going to the 20th Anniversary Of Vampire bash that the organiser suggested for next year.
Tired now. Wake me in time for Boardwalk Empire.

Today and yesterday I got to hang out with RPGnet's own Aegypto, pointing out the various pubs where seasons of The Watch House ended. He managed to remain apparently amused.

See also the DWAITAS forum repost which gets less views but more comments.
The first minute and 46 seconds of this is the musical cue cited.
Ending the game proved to be a good call as I haven't been able to get two of the players to rub together all summer. Still, GMing a Christmas special would have been fun.

Because never let it be said that I'm above using the name brand monster.
On which note while re-checking the edit I watched Destiny Of... and I feel confident I could do a Movellans story that wasn't as... disco.

The Big Emotional Episode, the one I'd point to as the Bafta nominee. (The SFX award would probably go to Ghost Ship for its twisty-turniness or the Thunder In The Skies two-parter for all the explosions and spaceships and stuff.)

Favourite bits: Effie's reaction to a historical figure, and "the Earth exploding" in the next time trailer.
The Doctor Who Series A PBP is currently in 1943 as well, largely due to the research for this. Apart from the bits that are now in the Cretaceous period.

Lots of running around, some shooting, a bit of a self-important villainous rant, and Effie being awesome.

You're allowed to skip this one if you've already read The Hammer Of Time, although seeing how two groups respond differently to a variation on the theme may be of interest.

Based mostly on finding a cool picture that would make a good monster. I liked it so much that since I didn't have a working printer I asked Matt to print it as a handout to make sure everybody could see it.
The next one has a more interesting "based on" story, I promise.
