RPG Meme Bandwagon

> 1. What is the first RPG you ever played?

The first rpg I played... that'd be Gurps 3rd Ed.,
Revised. I played the solo adventure in the back...
then I ran the solo adventure as a GM for my buddies.
I discovered that I was good at running games but I've
never -ever- had the chance to play a game, as no one
I know has ever been knowledgeable enough about RPGs
to want to be a GM.

> 2. What RPG do you currently play most often?

I run Fudge and only Fudge, though I use Gurps books
as a resource.

> 3. What is the best system you've played?

I've only 'played' Gurps.
 
> 4. What is the best system you've run?

Fudge. Hands down.

> 5. Would you consider yourself an: Elitist/
> Min-Maxer/ Rules Lawyer?

Well, I don't play RPGs, I run them... so none of
those really apply.

> 6. If you could recommend a new RPG which would you
> recommend? Why?

I'd recomend Fudge. Fudge is just awesome for GMs.

> 7. How often do you play?

I havent ran an RPG in forever... I've just left for
college and I don't think any of my current friends
are into RPGs.

> 8. What sort of characters do you play? Leader?
> Follower? Comic Relief? 

I don't play characters.
 
> Roll-Player/ Role-Player?

Again, I don't play... but if I had to choose I'd say
I was a role-player, though I do sometimes enjoy
tactical games.
 
> 9. What is your favourite Genre for RPGs?

I like just about any genre that really gets my brain
working... but I prefer to read (and thus I get most
of my inspiration from) science fiction.

> 10. What Genres have you played in?

Well... I've only played in the semi-fantasy solo
adventure in the Gurps book... but I've ran just about
anything... from prehistoric horror to futuristic
comedy.

> 11. Do you prefer to play or GM? Do you do both?

I don't really have a choice... I enjoy GMing greatly,
but I've never had someone be a GM for me, so I don't
really know what it is like to play an RPG.

> 12. Do you like religion in your games?

I don't usually have religion play a big part of my
RPGs... it's not that I don't like religion, it's just
that it doesn't tend to enter my mind much and thus I
don't tend to incorporate it into my RPGs.

> 13. Do you have taboo subjects in your games or is
> everything "fair game"?

It depends on where I am running the game... obviously
cussing is fine at home, but if you are playing in the
school library, you don't want to be describing rape
or having players cuss in-character.

> 14. Have you developed your own RPG before?

Yep! That's what I do all the time. I'm a
Fudge-addict.

> 15. Have you ever been published in the Gaming
> Industry? If so...what?

Well, I've never been published unless you count the
Fudge Twiki or the Fudge mailing list... but I'm an
editor for Fudge Factor (the Fudge magazine).
