Sending this to both lists since they both seem to be active, but we
need to get onto one list only soon!

Well, it's not really the WHOLE story; there's always more to tell,
and there were some things that I didn't feel comfortable including.
The details of Oliver's story, for example. I've met Greg and Jack
Dott (I accidentally insulted Jack to his face, actually, and Greg had
me tortured and killed--long story), but I wouldn't want to
misrepresent myself. I didn't have any inside information. I published
a large RPG APA that Chaosium read, but that only got me a little bit
of extra rumormongering now and again. :)
I should also admit (although it's probably obvious) that my personal
opinions may have tinged some of my descriptions a little bit. :)
About the poll: I've had a poll on my site for about six months now.
Here are the results:
Which version(s) of RuneQuest do you prefer? Choose one or more.
Basic Role-Playing (10) 5%
Magic World (8) 4%
RuneQuest I (10) 5%
RuneQuest II (38) 19%
RuneQuest III (71) 36%
RuneQuest IV: Adventures In Glorantha (10) 5%
RuneQuest: Slayers (5) 2%
A heavily customized version (24) 12%
Pendragon Pass (9) 4%
Other (8) 4%
No opinion/I don't roleplay (1) 0%
Votes: 194.
The poll can be accessed directly at
http://pub.alxnet.com/poll?id=2068340&q=view, and includes some bar
graphics if that sort of thing excites you. All of my polls (and
quizzes) can be reached at http://www.maranci.net/quizpoll.htm .
I had some sort of RQ question in mind, by my brain has just gone
blank. I hope to do more work on the Basic RQ project soon, but right
now time is short thanks to my two-month-old son. Not that I'm
complaining, mind you. :)
