Hey, Daniel,

I'm moving my forum over to RPG Crossroads, where I've answered your question s!

DanielW on Playing a Human Contact one-shot

Sun, 06 Mar 2011 07:26:51 +0000

Hey,

I'm planning to play a one-shot game of Human Contact at a small private convention in the summer. I know that Human Contact is not a one-shot game at all, but there are some people at that con with whom I'd love to try out the game, so it has to be a one-shot, using a time slot of about 4 hours.

Have you guys played any HC one-shots, and how did you approach this? Did you just play the first chapter in the Contactor?

I assume it might be more exciting to play the First Contact chapter, if you can only play for one session, but how would you do that without establishing some *Tagonists from the Contactor and the Colony first?

And, Joshua, one of potential players for this is interested in purchasing the Human Contact PDF to prepare for the game. Do you have any plans to sell the PDF stand-alone, without having to buy the bundle?

Best regards

Daniel

Clever & effiicient design. Very plausible for a 'future-tech' Academy. Well done-

They're one byte big because, when they overlap, they only have a block in one position.

So, if you have 10001, that's normal (left side of the first character in the upper left).

Then you have 01001, then 00101, then 00011, then 00001.

Also, all dot positions are not valid; one is always at the top or bottom (and in the case of the first column and first row, top and bottom).

Having stuff in the center columns doesn't impede machine reading for two reasons:

when they're irrelevant, machines don't bother to read the center column; they just read the edges (like a human reader would, anyway).
Academic image-processing software is very, very good. It might not get the expression of the line, or get that you drew this word shaped like a penis (they're human; they think penises are funny, too), but the software knows to look at the edges.

Excellent language construction in the Dec 8 KePho-Rn PDF. Seems like its a 10 bit value ( two vertical runs of 5 on or off locations) plus the punctuation/number factor found in the middle gives it at least 1024 characters. Be interesting to see conjugation/sentence-construction.

Was wondering if anyone knows why it is called one 'byte' (8bits) tall, with just 5bits possible? Perhaps i'm missing something?

Clever idea of allowing the 'center' routing lines to be calligraphically variable, but wouldn'tit impede glyph recognition for non-machine readers? Or does the Academy have pattern-awareness advantages for ease of recognition?

Good stuff– eager to hear more~

Dude, we've got a thread about a wiki going! It so happens, I'm logging in right now to read what I said, cuz if anyone knows what I said, it was me. Or at least a database record of me.
