Roll20 Data

Post by Penny-Whistle »

I have no idea how I ran into this bit of trivia but apparently Roll20 collects and analyses their data. How neat to see that Stars Without Number is surging in popularity -- even beating out Fate! I think one of the reasons for its success is that Kevin Crawford is just such a nice guy. Two times now our group has contacted him with questions and he answered promptly -- like within 5 minutes! The game itself is free, well written and a lot of fun to play. It will be interesting to see if Stars Without Number maintains its momentum. It looks like all the scifi games are growing in popularity. Probably because of that movie -- you know the one I'm talking about.

BTW: The group I play with has been really happy with Roll20's voice chat. So long Skype. It was nice knowing you. I'd like to say it was just me but that would be a lie.

That would mean I have played in well over half of them and know nearly everyone playing on Roll20.
Since its 20,000 I suggest "Captain Nemo" as his title. Beyond the obvious connection, he is one who sails on his own terms and ignores those he doesn't agree with...confident in his journey and goals.

Well, we still need it for maptool and fantasy grounds games. Mumble didn't work out well. Maybe Teamspeak or Ventrilo.

The Linux skype port is abandonware. Skype already complains about the version mismatch and it's likely to get worse. I guess when I am booted into Linux I'll have to try to web version of Skype. I don't like that you need a special plugin.
