Developer Journal

This journal is NOT in-character. It is more of a place where I can post my thoughts about the games of Grimoire Entertainment Inc. when I feel like sharing them with the community in a way that might not be appropriate for the official Dark Grimoire board. I do not know if I will post often, but now I will have a place to do so if the urge strikes me. I would like my journal to be an interactive experience, so I invite you to comment, discuss and ask questions under my posts.

Been lots of fun movement on the BANISHMENT front lately. Cory has made all kinds of cool tools making it really easy to dole out punishment to those worthy of pain. Good times!

About the children... sorry about that. What happened was that I was stupid. One of my strengths, usually, is looking at ideas Cory and I have for DG and then analyzing them to kind of forecast what the long-term effect the change will have on the game will be. I did a bad job of that with the children. Mostly it was because I was blinded by my own opinion of "who the hell would want to play a child in the first place?"

Unfortunately, by letting my own opinion on the subject blind me, I accidentally created a NEW FAD. Now, this is sorta good, because I have always wanted to create a new fad. I was hoping it would be something along the lines of clothing or a style of dance, though, not a booming desire in the hearts of hundreds of DG players to suddenly shed the last 10-40 years of their lives and become annoying, obnoxious, dirty little children. What a weird fad. Nevertheless, that is what it was.

NEW SHINY ITEMS + YOU CAN ONLY GET THEM IF YOU GET PERMISSION FROM BEN + ROLEPLAYING OPPORTUNITY + UNIQUENESS BECAUSE NOT MANY PEOPLE DO IT YET = AUTOMATIC DG FAD

Whoops.

So there you have it. I don't want kids running around in the game. Sorry. You know, it IS slightly important that Cory and I do not become annoyed at the game. See, if a player gets annoyed at the game, then that player leaves and Cory and I lose a few bucks... the rest of the player population probably won't even notice, unless the player had close friends. If Cory or I lose interest or become annoyed and leave... you would probably notice quite a bit. So it is important to always keep this game non-obnoxious for us deities. I hope that makes sense. =)
