Frequently Asked Questions

17. What exactly is "transformational roleplaying?"
1. In general, it means an interactive story in which the participants turn into other creatures, other people, or even objects, or are those other creatures, people, or objects. The transformation could be by magic, science, or whatever means you can imagine. If you have questions, ask around in the channel; somebody will be happy to help you out.
17. Why is this fun?
1. If you have to ask, you'll never know.
17. What's AG?
1. AG is our adventure game system. It's like a story, only every page can be written by a different person, and you're allowed to add your own parts too. Our stories tend to focus on TFs because we happen to enjoy those, but other adventure games exist that focus on other things. There's the Addventure, which is a more generic adventure storyline and the Unending BE (the "Unending Breast Expansion") which is definitely not suitable for minors, to name a few.
17. How do I start?
1. Go here, read a bit of the story, and when you come to a page that says "This has not yet been created", say "Yes" when asked if you'd like to create it yourself.
17. What software does AG use?
1. AG is its own system, written from scratch in PHP. We intend to release the source code soon under a good open-source license, but we haven't had time to properly package it up or set up a nice administrative interface, so you'll have to wait a little longer.
17. Who built this place?
1. Inker did most of the coding. Clara's the lead administrator. And Thom hosts it. Use our "contact" page if you need to contact us.
17. What happened to the IRC channel?
1. People got busy, and stopped being able to show up there regularly, so we changed the focus of this web site accordingly. You can still have TF roleplays here, just in a different way.
17. I'm a minor. Can I play?
1. Sorry, kiddo, but no. If you are a minor, you must wait until age 18 (or other age as per your applicable local laws) to play. If you hide your age and we discover that you are, in fact, underage, we will be forced to ban you from playing. Sorry, but those are the rules.
17. Does this mean, then, that you prohibit AR too?
1. No, we prohibit pedophilia. AR is permitted, but only if it has no sexual connotations whatsoever. Two of our ops are regular AR players, and that's perfectly okay so long as it's good clean fun. (If you don't know what AR is, you don't need to worry about it.)
17. What's with all the crazy lingo?
1. Check out the glossary. If you hear words that you still don't know, ask an op.
17. You people are sick!
1. Please file all complaints in the rear end of any available centaur. Be sure to stand nice and close.
