Um... I am not sure what manner of outfit "profit" is? Perhaps we dress up as money or coins?

It's an old internet meme (in the timeline of the internet anyway, circa early 2000s). Whenever you have a list of things, it always ends with ??? followed and concluded by PROFIT!

Actually, you have to go back to 1998 for that one. Back when South Park was funny.

It is a reference to the Underpants Gnomes episode of South Park. Underpants Gnomes' plot.

Sorry. I will try to maintain more decorum. It's just my enthusiasm gets the better of me sometimes and I wind up dancing naked at the top of the page to welcome you.

Wait...South Park was funny? Not in my experience.


I don't know I thought South Park was amusing in a juvenile sort of way.

The first seasons were hilarious.

Lessons from the Antitroll.

I do remember one South Park episode that was so incredibly topical and slashingly funny it took my breath away. It aired about a week after the incident in question... and darned if I can remember what that incident was.

By the way, I drive past South Park here in Colorado every week day. So glad I don't live there.

It has always been very much Not My Kind of humor.


They like to add too much drama into their comedy sometimes, and they occasionally get lost in gore and politics, but overall it's a good show.

Not one I watch with regularity, but a good show.

A real South Park, you learn something new everyday...I enjoyed it for it's first couple of seasons like say Firefly 8>)


I drove through South Park, once.

Or was that around it...

Alright, fellow Fawtl-ites! So, I'm working with a disappointed player right now, thanks to the fact that I have fully committed myself to not returning to a superhero game we started a while back because I despise Champions system I was using for it. Said player really liked their character, who I honestly enjoyed as well. So, while I'm running Kingmaker for the group, I'd like to try and find another system that I can use for some good-ole superhero-making fun! Any suggestions?

I've heard great things about Mutants and Masterminds, haven't tried it myself.

Tsr Marvel super heroes.

There is no other system.

{in monotone:} You should play HERO. It is the best.

There's always Heroes Unlimited.

Heard good things about it myself as well, though I'd like some others to look into as well for a good comparison.

Hrm. Never heard of it. Might see what I can rustle up.

*fires the kitty out of a cannon* Trying to not play the Hero System, thank you!

Another one that I played. Didn't seem too bad to run, either, so I might have a go at it.

Freehold is pretty spot on, if you can find the expert box set, Marvel Super Heroes is a ton of fun.

The Star Wars thread is up to 776 posts since last I checked, before the movie came out.

Still haven't seen it, but soon, it's at the full bar theater I saw yesterday.

I've no idea what the HERO system is, but I'm really enjoying the mechanics of Cortex system as defined in the Firefly RPG. I've found it excessively "fluffable" to the point that I'm pondering a drow campaign using the Cortex system.

(I'm thinking of adding another "stat" - "magic" - with which you can add a d3 to anything (and it can be scaled d3->d4->d6->etc) that eats into your ability array*. Alternatively, and more simply, "magic" or "spells" are just Skill Specialties or Signature Assets.)

* ((It's problems are twofold, though: while it demonstrably adds to any other roll, it starts at a 33.333...% jinx-rate (a natural 1) and it eats your other ability scores to increase itself. I'm toying with a third drawback: when used, all die except the magic die roll jinxes on both 1s and 2s.))

Anyway, could be worth looking into.

EDIT: added a closing quotation marks. Grumble complain typos.

Might get last two books of Hell's Rebels today, or tomorrow.

Surprisingly, I think I'm more excited for Hell's Vengeance to begin, which I was going to skip originally.

I'm very intrigued with how Paizo handles it.

It could also be, I have a great chance of getting someone else to run it, so I don't get to read it right away. :-)

That will be hard.

LOL. I'm so busy running campaigns right now that all the stuff that arrives just gets thrown into my "campaigns" bookshelf. I have enough that half a dozen GMs could show up at my house, each start an AP, and have physical books, PDFs, and interactive maps for it all.

Yeah, I have too much stuff...

I am a super hero game junkie so I will give My recommendation for Mutants & Masterminds. It seems to be the best made super game out to date and as a bonus it is a d20 based system for easy learning. Other games I have played are V&V or Heroes Unlimited which are really fun but wildly unbalanced; Marvel Superheroes or DC Heroes both of which seemed overly complex and had uninspired play (to be fair this may have been the GMs fault); marvel supers (the one that uses cards) which was very quick and easy to play but also unbalanced; hero system or GURPS which feature point buy and dull combats; there is also Aberant by White Wolf which looked promising but I never got anyone else interested in playing it.

Alright! Between you guys and a few others suggestions, I think I'll be picking up Mutants and Masterminds! And I can concur with Hero System being dull as all hell in the combat department, which is a major reason I hate the system.

Yep, I replied (again) in the comments to explain what my Youtube username means =) Though I don't think anybody noticed that. I got a good laugh out of their reaction, regardless.

I have BOTH original boxed sets. And have actually never had the chance to play them. :( As I never played them, I can only tell you that reading the directions, it seemed,... unusually complex. The only way to tell that you hit was by using a complicated color-coded chart that came with the box. :/

OTOH, I have spent MANY hours players HERO system over the last 30 years.(originally Champions, then later Fantasy Heroes, same system) And I love it,... mostly. WHile the combat system can be clunky, (particularly the SPEED system) we had many nail-biting super-duper throwdowns using that system. Both as super heroes and Fantasy adventurers! I love the fact that it is a point-buy system that allows you to do pretty much ANYthing, as the exact details of your 'powers' are simply descriptions (IE=Special Effects) and the powers all work the same game-wise regardless of what they are supposed to be. (magic, lasers, etc)

Sorry,... MANY happy memories/ hours playing that game. :D
(NO relation to the lame online game that only bears its name, and NO other similarity!) :P
