All Kinds of Fun!
2009 was a lean year in content. There was plenty of ambition, but the remains of nerd projectitis are evident. Hypermen went unfinished as well of Peridot. Mnemosyne never developed a magic system. Lenga, despite all the history written, never described more than a handful of emperors and the The Mill. I regret the unfinished [...]
Due to family illness, I’ve been delayed for three days. I hope to resume later tomorrow or Saturday.
In the spirit of the new year and Yet Another ReOrg, all the sites hosted by me are being revamped. I plan on downloading the whole she-bang for a backup copy and moving stuff around. When it is done, this site will look the same.
Other changes for this site include a more narrow focus:
Main Focus [...]
After a lot of work on the main site (pinakidion), I have now moved efforts here. I will clean up posts, create a regular schedule, and integrate a wiki and forums.
More later.
No kidding. The website is here.
So far, negotiations for the teams is part-way finished. They are looking to have a 16 game season with no preseason. They are also incorporating a few changes similar to Canadian Football. Three point PAT from the 10 yard line, 4 point FGs from beyond 55 yards. No touchbacks or [...]

More to come, just needed to write it down.
Microlite20 has a new domain. This is a great project that is an incredible resource for preserving all the old sourcebooks you may have. Microlite20 is the inspiration for MUSE, which I hope to publish in wiki form, soon. Unlike Microlite20, there’s a dearth of Action! System [...]
I’ve updated the site with an upgrade to Wordpress 2.5.1.
I’ve also changed a few other things:
For example, I host Action! System files, but I have begun work on a revised version called Mnemosyne. This has also created a 10 page quick play system called MUSE – Magic Using Simple Expressions.
I’ve also planned on publishing [...]
I’m sorry for the recent spam. I got overwhelmed by the spam when I didn’t update my hashcash filter.
I have been working on a few things. I’ll update the current development page soon. Really.
I stopped the football project long enough to actually play Statis-Pro Football again. I have a pretty good team with a few [...]
I plan on this site having its own domain and seriously devoting time here. I hope to be able to make a little money as well. Before you hit the next link in your bookmarks, bear me out. I’m not looking to quit my day job or anything.
If it is on the website, it’s free. [...]
Sycarion Diversions is a sister site of pinakidion.*. pinakidion.* deals more with religious and writing topics. This site houses information on games. Specifically, this has information on card games, board games, and role-playing games. Card games and board games are a collaborative effort with my friend Jeff. Jeff has created and briefly marketed one board game and has idea for lots of others. Role-Playing Games are my bailiwick. I've been playing since I was 10 starting with the Mentzer Basic D&D box. I stopped playing in college, but recently renewed my love for RPGs. In 2005, I discovered the Action! System from Goldrush Games. Since then, I have also found Microlite20 and OpenD6. It's a good time to game.
For what it is worth, feel free to use anything that you see on the site. It is not copyrighted or even placed under a Creative Commons License. Part of the reason for this is that rules for games cannot really be copyrighted. However, the main reason is that the value of this site is the community I am a part of. Restrictions on ideas and games can delay innovation, even simple restrictions can be an impediment. Sure, I'd like a link and to be given credit, but that's up to the person.
