A few threads about... MY LIFE WITH MASTER
«

Hello!
One of my long-standing projects was to write a series of posts with a "best threads compilation" for a indie rpg. None of these compilation is at this time really ready or complete, but seeing that in three weeks the Forge will close, I post them now or never...
In the state they are now, these can't be really called list of "best threads". So I am calling them "a few threads about..."
These threads are obviously open to contributions: if you know a thread that in your opinion should be in this list, post the link.
------------------------------------------------------
The time is flying and there is not the time to post about every game I wanted to. So these last threads will be much less polished than the firsts.
Writing a list of My Life With Master links is difficult: not because it's difficult to find good threads, but because they are so many. There is a
entire subforum
dedicated to the public playtest of the game,
another
for the published game, and a summary search for any thread that cite "My Life with Master" shows more than 1100 threads just in the Archive forum.
I had taken note of useful and/or good threads in the last years reading the Forge, but I did not write a detailed description of WHY any of these threads is useful. And now there isn't the time. And I have not even read more than half of these 1100 threads, so It's probable that there is some even more useful thread missing from the list
So, I am posting the list more or less without comments. This is really a list of "a few threads", that i consider useful: A too long list, but even making a selection would take too much time, sorry.
Said that, here is the list:
A brief article by Paul Czege (published on the "
Second Person : Role-Playing and Story in Games and Playable Media
" MIT book), about protagonism and the genesis of the game:
"
My Life with Master: The Architecture of Protagonism
"
The most cited article about "How to play the Master":
A Manifesto on Mastery
by Michael Miller, and the
discussion
about it...
Some good actual play threads, starting from some of Ron's:
[My Life With Master] Radium power
[My Life with Master] Black ooze oozes forth
[My Life with Master] Hell and heresy
...and others:
[MLWM] My Easter With Master
My Life with Father
[My Life With Master] Lord Blackwell
Some example of funny "setting" for MLWM:
My Life with Jesus
My Life with Sauron
the rpgmp3.com "Christmas Special"
(my life with Santa podcast)
My Life with Tony
(Blair)
But MLWM excel with less "funny" settings: if it will ever be translated in English, take a look at the "
My life with Angelica
" version, even more unsafe than the original game...
