Well, in an effort to stir up a little traffic on the list, I thought I would wonder aloud about a topic I've thought a lot about since the early days of Blue Planet. My hunch is that as far a sci-fi games go, and maybe RPGs in general, BP might have a slightly higher appeal to female gamers in that it is a more mature setting, with more to offer than snarfing up treasure and blowing up bad guys. I would like to get a feel for how women have taken to Blue Planet, and to this end here are a few quick questions: 1. How many females are on this list? Chime in ladies! 2. How many of you play in BP games with at least one woman? 3. Are there any female BP game moderators on the list, or in your gaming groups? 4. Ladies - what are your impressions of the BP setting? 5. Guys - if you play BP with any female gamers, how do you characterize their interest in BP? Answers and comments of any kind are welcome! Thanks much, Jeff Barber Biohazard Games ********************************************************************* ****** To unsubscribe from this list send mail to majordomo@mpgn.com with the line 'unsubscribe blue_planet' as the body of the message.
