Ask away, everyone. You can ask me anything about my games from the past or the future (particularly The Reckoning of Omega). And to get things going here's the first trailer for The Reckoning of Omega: www.flickr.com/photos/93536940@N07/9647015700/

Super sweet trailer Potato and is it me or does the Old Guy's chances of surviving seem a bit slim?

I guess I'll ask first. Since you're the creator of the games, when was it that you created them?

Pre Vizsla and Ventress seem to have had a history in your last game. Will that be expanded upon?
Also, will Obi and Ventress be awesome together?
Will Ventress' role be large?
VENTRESS.

The original idea was going to be played on flickr but because I didn't use SW.com I had to ask for some kind of email from people to keep things private. I figured out quick that people would only play the games if they were on SW.com so I just used guides for people to get their roles and had to go on an honor system. Now with the creation of the forums, people can get their roles completely privately with PMs.

I have some questions for you: 1. How much did the outcome of your games change their stories? Would they have ended entirely different if another team had won? 2. What are your plans for after Omega?

Yes, I'm hoping to show it eventually, but it probably won't be shown too much in The Reckoning of Omega. You might see how their history actually started soon though because I'm planning on doing some stories in the Series Board about the time between The Tale of Omega and the Oppression of Omega. I don't really have plans for that, but I'm thinking I might show a little of their awesomeness together. Larger than other characters. Part of it also depends on how long you survive.

Now with the creation of the forums, people can get their roles completely privately with PMs. Which have proven to work since then. So what does the future hold after Omega? I'm not totally decided yet. I really want to do something on a major scale and make it a multi-game series but I'm not sure if I want to wait so long to complete another new story. It's been about a year since I came up with the idea of the Omega Trilogy and it still probably won't end until at least another couple months. Something will come though, and I'm hoping to make it epic. I have some questions for you: 1. How much did the outcome of your games change their stories? Would they have ended entirely different if another team had won? 2. What are your plans for after Omega? 1. They actually don't affect my stories that much. I already had the entire main plot of the Omega Trilogy planned out by the time I started hosting The Tale of Omega. Things would have gone very differently in The Jedi Temple Game and Hunting the Hunters though because those games didn't really have major stories and could have ended in a completely different way. Guardians of the Republic would have had some characters survive into The Tale of Omega if the scum won. And if the loyalists won in The Oppression of Omega Maul would have sacrificed himself to Sidious while the others escaped. But it doesn't affect anything too much. I'm hoping to have game outcomes affect the story a little more in my future games though. 2. Same answer to Mav's question.

I've never really thought about that. The Jedi Temple Game and Hunting the Hunters were pretty easy to host because I didn't need to worry about making the story work, so those were fun. The same goes to The Birthday Party Game. I really liked hosting The Tale of Omega and The Oppression of Omega though. TOOO was just really tiring for me because I was taking pictures for it daily.

When did you decide to connect your first three games? About a year ago when I decided to host the Omega Trilogy. My first three games cover three big factions of the SW universe, jedi, bounty hunters, and clones. I always was planning on hosting them eventually but never thought they'd really be connected. With all the characters and the possibility of them being connected somehow, I decided I'd have one game where all the characters come together to stop a major threat (Darth Sidious). But I soon realized one game wouldn't be enough so I made it a trilogy. Do you have a favorite character from the Omega trilogy? And will you have any new host characters for TROO that you might like most? Yeah, I like Spudlo Tateroff the most. He mostly just started off as a bounty hunter with a cool helmet, but I've been trying to make him more than that throughout the Omega Trilogy. And of course he'll be expanded upon more in The Reckoning of Omega. I also don't really have any new host characters for TROO. The hosts will be Pre, Obi-Wan, Spudlo, Hammer, and Tato, so they're all just returning characters. But Spudlo's my favorite of all of them.

There's been a few things that I remember regretting or wanting to change in the past, but I can't really think of any now. I think one might be to have the story of The Jedi Temple Game and Hunting the Hunters be bigger though. Just so it fits in better with Guardians of the Omega Trilogy. And at the end of The Jedi Temple Game I said the whole jedi order was almost destroyed... I wish I didn't do that and just said it was some minor attack or something. So the main changes would probably involve my first two games.

But the end of the game was sorta like the end of the story so I guess you didn't think about that.

I pictured music from The Dark Knight Rises for the ending of the trailer. Actually, the music from TDKR I'm thinking of happens at the end of one of its trailers. I could look for it really quickly.
