I like creating new languages, especially to flavor RPGs or a fantasy setting. To that end, I have been creating a relex of Latin as the language of magic. It sounds like Latin without being the Dog Latin used in popular books.
I wrote part of the README for yould's next release. I'll be posting some of the engines I've created and some helpful how-tos in the coming days.
I have all the boxscores from the 1985 season. I'm doing it as part of a quest to get more information than currently available online about the USFL's final season. The various sources come from local newspapers. I will create a section of Sycarion that is just for the completed boxscores.
Game 1 in Tampa Bay with 44,0095 in attendance broke down like this:
Team ----------Q1 --- Q2 --- Q3 --- Q4 ---- Total
Renegades ----0 ----- 0 ----- 0 ----- 7 --------- 7
Bandits ------- 14 --- 14 ----- 7 ----- 0 ------- 35
Neither team threw for more than 162 yards. It was a running game, if you can believe that.

I know, I know. Everything lately has been RPG stuff. Dice is in my blood, I guess. So now, back to a project I've been working on for the better part of 2007, the Pro Football Action project.
The software that I was using to create entire seasons had one small flaw that prevented me from using it:
I couldn't make my own teams.
In the case of the USFL, I couldn't get enough stats on players and teams without camping out at the library and reading a lot of microfilm.
So, I switched to a different program, Alex Mittenmeyer's FBWin. It is a windows version of the old Avalon Hill game, Statis-Pro Football. It uses Access Databases to store stats, track a season and so much more.
However, editing a team wasn't entirely straightforward. Many people wrote to Alex, including me. I'm happy to say that I have the editor and will post it here for others to download.
You can contact Alex at the Statis-Pro Football yahoo group.
