Roll Character History

I've put the preliminary web interface to my table-rolling program up. Currently there are only two tables: a very simple table for rolling up bar names, and a very complex table for rolling character histories.

Play around with it, and feel free to nitpick. Things that I know are still problems in some of the tables:

No [something] yet – means a sub-table was called that I haven't bothered to fill out.

() – means that a subtable was called but didn't yield and answer.

was/were – this should show only the appropriate form. If it shows up as written it usually means that there's some missing whitespace in the table so the pattern matching didn't work

” ” – sometimes a subtable yields nothing, but there's no sign of it except a word seems to be missing from a sentence, e.g. “whose goal is ,”

Various places where the subject doesn't agree with the verb.

Various places where a space is missing between words.

The Character History table is actually a lot more robust than this makes it sound. If you let me know any problems you find (generally I need the exact text to track it down), I'd appreciate it.

New Group Blog

Per Wendy’s request, I’ve set up a new group blog and given you all access. Books Do Furnish A Room is a group blog for the Sunday gaming group to share book recommendations in a place where we can possibly remember them. When you log in to MovableType you should now see an Books Do Furnish A Room in the dropdown list, in addition to BlogRiPpinG. Add entries to record your book recommendations, or talk about books that we’ve read, or whatever.
