More Design Notes for Untitled Sex RPG Project
Posted 13 years agoA while back, I posted this prototype of a sex game mechanic, along with some ideas on how to incorporate that mechanic into an RPG about getting laid a lot.
The game mechanic I created solves the problem of making a sex sim fun, because it's somewhat engaging gameplay that one wouldn't necessarily mind repeating quite a lot. However, it's still not the kind of thing that'll sustain an entire game on its own. That's what the larger RPG context is for.
World of Warcraft, for example, hasn't had wild success for the past decade because it's fun to pretend to kill things by clicking on them and pressing number keys. Some of the things that keep people consistently coming back to WoW are relevant to the discussion of keeping people interested in a game about sex.
1. Familiar Experiences
WoW players keep coming back to the same dungeons and same encounters over and over, sometimes on a nightly basis with elaborately structured "raid groups". Raiding happens once a player has reached the level cap, and the progression mechanic of experience and leveling can no longer maintain the player's interest. The only progression mechanic left is gathering more loot. But even the l33test loot wouldn't be enough of a draw if the actual act of doing the same raid over and over weren't at least a little bit fun.
That's because the individual little variables of each raid differ just enough that they don't all feel like the same exact experience with different window dressing. Different bosses require different tactics to take down. Raid groups play the same raids over and over to try and master them, like a band playing a song over and over again until their guitar solos become facemelting.
Raids in WoW are analogous to coming back to the same sexual partner in a sex RPG. Tweak and twist the variables of the sex mechanic for each character, allowing the player to — over time — pick up on the subtle differences. Perhaps a particular character likes when the player keeps the slider dangerously close to the upper limit of the sweet spot, for example. Twists like these will make it interesting to come back to a single character, just as it is in real life, and prevent it from being a chore.
2. Varied Experiences
But eventually, players do master a particular encounter, and get bored of it. This is why WoW adds a new raid in every patch.
For a sex RPG, you could just add more characters to fuck. But the rhythm mechanic is too simple for that. Some ways to add variety are new locations to have sex in — which may come with their own nuances, like avoiding being seen — or getting characters to do things, like getting the total-top dominant guy to bottom for you.
A way to drive this is with Fantasies. These would function like the Wants/Wishes from The Sims 2 and 3: give the player a random list of goals to achieve (e.g. Get fucked in an alley, top a tiger, have sex with three guys in one hour) which would give them experience points. Optionally, all of the goals could be opened up from the start for the player to complete at their leisure, a la Xbox achievements. But The Sims had a good idea in trying to give players some direction, so having the game feed you Fantasies to fulfill might be helpful.
Structuring the game around fulfilling Fantasies would allow all of its smaller parts — the rhythm sex mechanic, dialogue mechanics, some kind of mechanic surrounding non-verbally directing your partner to do things, etc. — to come together in a long-term entertaining whole. Some Fantasies, of course, might involve having sex with the same partner multiple times, which is why it's important to make that fun to do as well. Or perhaps you might need to get Sugar Daddies to buy you things, and we don't want maintaining those relationships to be a chore (however realistic that might be).

Who wants a picture of them pounding purple foxbutt? :D
Posted 13 years agoSo I'm gonna commission
harlem for some porn, but I can't decide who I want in my butt.
So! If any sexy boys want to pitch in $20, you'll get a picture of your character fucking my glorious purple ass. Comment on this journal with a ref if you're interested. After like a day or two I'll use a random number generator to pick one of the people who responded.
UPDATE: Okay,
sakurafox won.

How furries can participate in #CongressTMI CISPA protest
Posted 13 years agoJust thinking out loud about this. I'm open to suggestions about how we implement it.
Fight for the Future is running a campaign called #CongressTMI in protest of CISPA (or, as I like to call it, the "Stop Online Privacy Act"). Basically, Congress wants to know all about our personal lives online, so we send them all a whole bunch of TMI.
Another furry commented on BoingBoing's coverage with this:
"That's not TMI; TMI is the list of porn I've fapped to in the last week, including thumbnails and written descriptions.
I'd be more than happy to send that to Congress. I doubt that my fetishes are as kinky as theirs, though."
Let's all do that.

SOPA is back, and it's called CISPA now
Posted 13 years agoHi, Internet. Time to fight again.
We beat SOPA/PIPA in January. Awesome. But we knew that the powers behind it would fight back and try again. They have. And it's worse.
CISPA - the Cyber Intelligence Sharing & Protection Act - is a bill which allows the government and private companies to share any information with each other if such information is somehow related to a "cyber threat". This means privacy protection laws no longer apply as long as you mumble something about "cybersecurity".
A "cyber threat", according to CISPA, is anything from hacking a power grid to torrenting a Lady Gaga album. And, of course, nobody has to prove that anything's going on, they just have to "suspect" a "threat".
For example: Your employer mumbles something to Facebook about "cybersecurity" while handing them a bunch of money. Facebook then gives your employer access to your account. Facebook does not have to tell you they did this, and you cannot sue them for it. Now your employer knows that you fuck people in a dog suit.
Oh, and the MPAA and RIAA can use it to sue more people. But seriously, Facebook telling your boss that you fuck people in a dog suit. This can happen under CISPA, and there'll be nothing you can do about it.
(Yes, Facebook has come out and said "oh no we'd NEVER ever do that sort of thing" but come on, they're Facebook.)
(Also, yes, I know that you'd never talk about your fursuit sex habit on Facebook, but have you made a passing reference to something you did at Anthrocon? And has one of your Facebook friends posted a picture of you in suit? And can that somehow be traced to your FurAffinity account? There are people who get paid ridiculous amounts of money to find these connections. Any half-decent private investigator can find you out if you've ever so much as touched the Internet.)
Now, this is going to be more difficult to fight than SOPA and PIPA, because we're less likely to have gigantic corporations on our side. Gigantic corporations hated SOPA, because they would have to do a whole bunch of costly police work on their user base. But gigantic corporations love CISPA, because they're allowed to remain completely anonymous and face NO legal liability for handing your personal information over to whoever the hell asks nicely enough. They can publicly say, "we're 100% committed to our users' privacy and never reveal their personal data", but then go right ahead and do it anyway without being required to tell you. And if you find out, then you can't sue them. (Which, right now, you can, by the way)
SOPA was the "Stop Online Piracy Act". CISPA is more like the "Stop Online Privacy Act". Except it'll actually succeed at doing that.

Prototype/Design Notes for a Sex RPG
Posted 13 years agoSo here's some stuff I've been thinking about for how to design an RPG about gay furry sex.
First, the core mechanic of actually having sex. Before you read this journal any further, take a look at this submission for a prototype, and read the description.
Got it? Good. This journal is going to be about the larger game we can build around that.
The point of this RPG would be to get laid. A lot. As in any good RPG, you get to choose your play style: a dom who aggressively takes what he wants, a subby slut who shakes his ass to attract the doms' attention, a smooth-talking romancer, etc.
There are four stats, which affect both the sexual and seduction phases. Here's what they are, and what they benefit:
1. Cock
-- Sex acts involving your cock (topping, face-fucking, getting blown, etc.)
-- Being aggressive, intimidating, or blunt (e.g. flat-out telling a guy you're gonna fuck him)
-- Stuff related to strength and force
2. Ass
-- Sex acts involving your ass (bottoming, getting rimmed, lap dancing, etc.)
-- Attracting attention without initiating anything, being noticed across the room, dancing
-- Stuff related to agility, flexibility, attractiveness
3. Mouth
-- Sex acts involving your mouth (sucking dick, rimming, kissing, etc.)
-- Anything related to talking
4. Hands
-- Sex acts involving your hands (handjobs, fingering, etc.)
-- Non-verbal manipulation (e.g. switching positions during sex, groping, etc.)
In addition, there are more specific skills. For example, your Cock stat will give you bonuses to both Topping and Dominance, but you can be better at one or the other based on your skill.
Specializing in a stat is one way to play, but you can also mix and match them to create more interesting characters. For example, a power bottom is high in Cock (for dominance) and Ass (for bottoming). You'll also need to diversify your skillset to tackle more difficult challenges; for example, to get the total-top manly jock to bend over for you, you may need to lull him into a false sense of dominance with your Ass, then use your Hands while he makes out with you to grope his butt and make him want it.
Your character choice gives you certain benefits to stats and skills. Foxes, for example, are great at Bottoming and Smooth-Talking, and bunnies are adept at Sucking Dick and Attracting Attention. Any species can be adapted to any playstyle, though.
Anyway, that's how far I've gotten. I'm not sure where I'll go with this, but who knows? Could be fun.

The 20th Century media doesn't want furry to exist
Posted 13 years agoUPDATE: You've probably heard that SOPA/PIPA have been delayed, and therefore we "won." Nope, not yet. These things will come back, so stay on your guard. This is why:
Blah blah blah, SOPA, blah, I know. Everyone's been saying so much about it. But SOPA is just the latest in a 20-year battle against creativity. The media companies of last century do not want individual people to create their own artwork, their own stories, or their own popular culture — something like this furry community we have is absolutely abhorrent to them.
If you are an independent artist or creator, you may think that you have some common ground with Time Warner, News Corp, Viacom, and the other companies sponsoring SOPA: when people download your work without paying you for it, it makes it difficult to make a living. But you do not have common ground. Big media does not want you, the small artist, to make a living selling your work. They want to destroy you, because you are a competitor.
And now, we're all artists. We make up our own characters, and invent our own ways of entertaining ourselves instead of sitting on the couch and watching television. Our mere existence is seen as a threat by Warner Bros. and Universal.
Please, I beg of you, as a fellow person with eyeballs and ears and a respiratory system, take fifteen minutes to watch this video explaining what I mean by that. Clay Shirky explains it far more eloquently than I can:

January 18th: Help stop SOPA/PIPA
Posted 13 years agoIf you're reading this, you're clearly an Internet user, so you've probably heard about why the Stop Online Piracy Act and the PROTECT IP Act — two bills going through the US House and Senate, respectively — are horrible, horrible things. If you're not up to speed, the Wikimedia Foundation's explanation is a good primer. TL;DR: it will make websites like Google, YouTube, and FA too much of a legal risk to operate, and essentially destroy the Internet. This is not an exaggeration.
Anyway. On January 18th, many websites are shutting down in protest, urging visitors to contact Congress. Chief among them is the English-language version of Wikipedia. However, I've noticed that most of these sites are going to ask people to send emails, not make phone calls, to Congress. Congresspeople do not pay any fucking attention to emails.
They do, however, pay attention if we melt their phone lines.
So, if you live in the US, then sometime on the 18th (or, if you're reading this after the 18th, right now), please take 10 minutes to do the following:
Call your Representative
To find out who your Congressional representative is, go to House.gov and enter your Zip code. You may need to enter your address afterwards to narrow it down to your specific rep; districts are weird.
Now that you've found your rep, click their name to visit their website, and find their office's phone number. Give them a call.
A secretary will pick up, not the Congressperson. Tell them:
"Hi, my name is [Your Name], and I'm a constituent from [Your Town]. I'd like to leave a message for [Your Congressperson] about an issue."
When they tell you to go ahead, say something like this:
"The Stop Online Piracy Act is a dangerous bill which will allow websites to be blocked and rendered inaccessible without due process. If passed, this law WILL be abused to stifle free speech on the Internet. Meanwhile, people intent on committing piracy will have no problem circumventing the blocks. It will not stop online piracy, and will only eliminate free speech for law-abiding people. I urge [Your Congressperson] to oppose this bill."
They'll probably ask you to repeat your name and give your address.
Call your Senators
Now, go find your Senators' phone numbers at this Senate.gov page. Call them both.
Say the same things you did to your Congressperson, except replace "Stop Online Piracy Act" with "PROTECT IP Act". SOPA is the House version, PIPA is the Senate version. You don't want to sound misinformed by telling your Senator to oppose a House bill.
And that's it. It'll take you five to ten minutes. You don't even need to be a registered or eligible voter to do this, as long as you live in the US.
If it were only me calling, it wouldn't do anything. But if thousands of people call, all at once, in the same day, Congresspeople listen. This is important. SOPA/PIPA's proponents not only have millions of dollars to fight us with, but they also control the mainstream media. Our voices are the only thing that has a chance of stopping these disastrous bills and preserving the free, open Internet that brought us all together.
Anyway. On January 18th, many websites are shutting down in protest, urging visitors to contact Congress. Chief among them is the English-language version of Wikipedia. However, I've noticed that most of these sites are going to ask people to send emails, not make phone calls, to Congress. Congresspeople do not pay any fucking attention to emails.
They do, however, pay attention if we melt their phone lines.
So, if you live in the US, then sometime on the 18th (or, if you're reading this after the 18th, right now), please take 10 minutes to do the following:
Call your Representative
To find out who your Congressional representative is, go to House.gov and enter your Zip code. You may need to enter your address afterwards to narrow it down to your specific rep; districts are weird.
Now that you've found your rep, click their name to visit their website, and find their office's phone number. Give them a call.
A secretary will pick up, not the Congressperson. Tell them:
"Hi, my name is [Your Name], and I'm a constituent from [Your Town]. I'd like to leave a message for [Your Congressperson] about an issue."
When they tell you to go ahead, say something like this:
"The Stop Online Piracy Act is a dangerous bill which will allow websites to be blocked and rendered inaccessible without due process. If passed, this law WILL be abused to stifle free speech on the Internet. Meanwhile, people intent on committing piracy will have no problem circumventing the blocks. It will not stop online piracy, and will only eliminate free speech for law-abiding people. I urge [Your Congressperson] to oppose this bill."
They'll probably ask you to repeat your name and give your address.
Call your Senators
Now, go find your Senators' phone numbers at this Senate.gov page. Call them both.
Say the same things you did to your Congressperson, except replace "Stop Online Piracy Act" with "PROTECT IP Act". SOPA is the House version, PIPA is the Senate version. You don't want to sound misinformed by telling your Senator to oppose a House bill.

Vulpine Revolution! #OccupyFurFright!
Posted 14 years agoFOXES!
We are angry about something, and we will not tolerate it any longer! Stand up for stuff and let your loud, annoying yapping be heard!
On the weekend of October 14th through 16th, we will all descend on FurFright in Cromwell, CT, and we will not leave until our demands are met! Or until we get bored!
What are our demands? Our demands are that all of the things that we demand be met!
Bring protest signs that read things like:
"#OCCUPYFURFRIGHT"
"Vulpine Revolution"
"Down With This Sort Of Thing"
"Dumbledore Would Never Let This Happen"
"I Have A Sign"
"Attention For Foxes Now!"
We will march with these signs around the con and loudly chant stuff like:
"All day, all night, Occupy FurFright!"
"Whose con? Our con!"
"What do we want? Attention! When do we want it? Now!"
Together, we will make FurFright into our own Tahrir Square for no particularly good reason! We will engage in a noble act of civil derpobedience! We will make stuff happen!
Spread this message to every FurFright-attending fox you know.
EDIT: Conveniently, October 15th has been declared Global Change Day.

Anonymous fraternizing furries? WHAT HAS THIS WORLD COME TO?
Posted 14 years agoToday, I tweeted on the Twitter-twatters:
"These reports of #NYPDBrutality at #OccupyWallStreet do not mean you should stay home. They mean you should GO THERE and stop it."
Moments later, it was retweeted by @Anon_Central.
When Anonymous endorses a furfag, you know the world's gone mad.

Important: Please spread this news
Posted 14 years agoI usually prefer not to use this journal for this sort of thing, but I need every pair of eyeballs I can get for this.
On September 17th, a couple thousand people (including me) descended on Lower Manhattan for an action called Occupy Wall Street. Inspired by the occupations of Tahrir Square in Cairo, Puerta del Sol in Madrid, and Syntagma Square in Athens, it aims to be a months-long encampment in protest to the excessive influence of banks, corporations, and the top 1% of earners on society. Whether you agree with these grievances or not, I need you to pay attention.
While I, myself, have been going back home periodically, several hundred people are staying, camped out, in Zuccotti Park, a few blocks away from the (police barricaded) Wall Street. This is entirely legal under New York City law. However, police have been looking for every small opportunity they can use to arrest anyone. This morning, they did so. Brutally:
Reportedly, the arrests were related to the fact that tarps were covering equipment to protect them from the rain, and police claimed that this constituted the erection of a tent. The people arrested were not resisting, and yet excessive force was used on them. The kid in the purple, shown starting around 3:00, was having an asthma attack and shouting that he could not breathe. As you can see, the police held him down. He may be in critical condition.
Again, whether you agree with the message of this protest or not, it is a peaceful, legal, and non-violent action which is being subjected to police brutality. Please, spread this video and this story, because the media may not.
UPDATE 9/21: From occupywallst.org:
Before we say more about what happened to us it seems important to point this out: we do not think the police are our enemy. They have jobs, how could we fault them for that, when one sixth of America lives in poverty? when one sixth of America can't find work? The police are part of the 99 per cent.
The police informed us that the tarps over our equipment counted as a tent, and were therefore illegal. We objected to this interpretation of the law. One of us sat on top of the tarp to keep the police from extralegally removing our possessions.
[...]
In the first video you can clearly see a senior police officer hurling a protester face first toward the ground. Luckily the protester's blow was cushioned, but that didn't keep him from losing a piece of his tooth.
In the second video [The one I've posted here] police drag a protester across the ground, cutting his hands. You can clearly hear a police officer say that the young man will receive medical attention – in spite of this, it was our medics who bandaged him when he was released. Later, you can see the police deny a young man an inhaler during an asthma attack which the crowd explains may kill him.
After these events the police continued pressuring protesters with extralegal tactics by stating that a protester on a bullhorn was breaking a law. The protester refused to cease exercising his first amendment rights and was also arrested. Then the police began to indiscriminately attempt to arrest protesters, many unsheathing their batons, in spite of the protest remaining peaceful. In the end the police arrested seven of our members, holding five without charge for more than twelve hours.

How You Can Learn To Stop Worrying About Fursuit Sex
Posted 14 years agoMy name is Zacqary Adam Green. In my spare time, I am a purple fox named Xerxes.
I'm a member of the furry community, because thinking of myself as a ridiculous animal creature — and hanging out with other like-minded individuals — just so happens to make me happy. I'm also one of a very noticeable minority of furries who owns a fursuit. I like to put it on in public or at parties, so that I can bounce around and act ridiculous. Why? Because it's fun. And it makes other people smile. That's it. No other reason.
However, since we all have access to the Internet, and consequently Google, I can't really deny the fact that there is also a very noticeable minority of fursuiters. The ones who, in addition to wearing their fursuits out in public and entertaining people, also wear them behind closed doors while they have sex.
Now, I'm not a member of this particular minority, but I do have a few friends who are. I don't share their interest, but it doesn't bother me. Live and let live.
But I'm sure that there are some people who look at fursuiters, and think, "Oh god, which one of those people has sex in their suit? It could be any of them. What if it's the one touching me right now?"
Allow me to help you reconsider your anxiety.
Take a look at this photo of me wearing a purple shirt.
Got that? Okay. Now, let me admit to you something: on occasion, I have had sex while wearing that shirt. And you know what? Yeah, the fact that I was still wearing a shirt definitely made the sex more arousing.
Does that make you uncomfortable, knowing that? If I were to walk up to you, wearing that shirt, would you feel that I'm unclean? Would you think that maybe because wearing that shirt made me enjoy sex more, that perhaps it was getting me worked up right that very moment? Would you be afraid of having me near your children while I wore that shirt?
No. No, of course not. That would be absurd. Because, whenever you see anybody in the world wearing any article of clothing, you're always aware, in the back of your mind, that all of those people might have, once upon a time, had sex while wearing that article of clothing. And maybe enjoyed it more because they had some clothing still on. And yet you don't freak out whenever you see somebody wearing clothes.
So, yes, I cannot possibly deny this: whenever you see a fursuiter, there is always a slight possibility that at one point, they may have been wearing that suit while having sex. And hell, maybe you could know for a fact that one fursuiter in particular has had sex in their suit.
Big deal. People have sex. Some people do it while wearing things. Then they put the stuff they wore through the laundry, put it back on, and walk right back into the world. Save your paranoia and discomfort for things like live electrical wires and pissed off wild bears. The world will be a much more fun place if you just stop worrying.

Why furries have a bad reputation - a mindfuck in three acts
Posted 14 years agoAssuming the following are true:
- Furries, in general, have a more libertarian and tolerant view of sexuality than most of the world
- The negative sentiment towards furries — stemming from furry sexuality — likely originated in communities such as Something Awful and /b/, and spread from there
Then that means:
Furries are less socially conservative than Something Awful and /b/
Wow.
