You know how cool Boba Fett is? And while we’re at it, Bossk? And, well, maybe IG-88 and Zuckuss? And you know how not cool Dengar and Greedo are?
Well, in the interest of my fans being the awesomest (and not the shot-in-the-cantinaest), I’m offering a bounty. Some, like Thor and Eric, have already turned in some heads and will be suitably rewarded.
Here’s what you can do.
Find me errors in Shock: that no one’s found before. You can track the found errors in the Shock: Errata thread on Xenoglyph and over on the glyphpress forum on The Forge. You have to own the book to gain your bounty hunter certification.
If I use your error report in the next version of Shock: you will be sent a copy of the next version of the game signed with thanks for the valuable service you have provided.
Errors that are valid for hunting and execution:
- Typos (good lord, I don’t think there are any)
- Rules inconsistencies and artifacts from early drafts
- Inclarity
- Incorrect references
These are all subject to my judgement, particularly the “rules inconsistencies” bit. But you’ll get gold for your head if it’s what I’m after.
No disintegrations.
Page 25, second paragraph: “an Protagonist” should be “a Protagonist”.
Also, missing words/wrong syntax, page 25, continuing the above, “your job will be describe where you are normally and what you’re doing”. “Your job will be describe” is… incorrect.
Rock on, 4-Lom!
4-Lom?
Also, I didn’t yet read your game, I just happened upon this page and decided to do some scan-reading.
Imagine what an in-depth read may yield 😉
Page 38, first non-bold paragraph, “…Protagonist will be confronting the hir Story Goal”, “the” is useless.
By the by, do I get something for obtaining numerous heads? I may want to turn them in for playtests if possible 😛
Playtests? You bet! I love to play games (as you may or may not be aware)!
YAY! 🙂
My game is Cranium Rats.
I’ll try to find more typos tomorrow or on Wednesday. 🙂
Hey, Guy, turn heads in over at Xenoglyph.
I somehow didn’t realize Cranium Rats was yours!
Testing.
Turn heads how? What’s 4-Lom? And why do so many people not realize I’m the same “Guy”?
BTW, I find real time conversations much useful, would be nice if you signed on AIM 🙂
I wanna switch. 4-Lom isn’t cool.
Page 44, second paragraph, “Within moments, the others had noticed, and soon every unit member staring at the brawl”.
Between Member and Staring, you’re missing something, like “Was”.
Still only scan-reading.
Joshua –
the errata thread at Xenoglyph is closed. Do you want to re-open it, or use this blog?
Which of course means that once this little procedural snafu is cleared up, I’ll be all about collecting my bounty, yo!
(Dibs on Bossk! Wookie hunting rocks!)
Nope, just start a new thread for each erratum. That way, they can be discussed, if need be, just like it says in the Errata thread.
