@eniko @Njord I played #AmberDiceless with a small group for a while and loved it a great many years ago. (What do you mean "skew older"!?!) Also played it play-by-email (see, not so much skewed). It plays well both ways. I still have the book.
Hey so does anyone here play #AmberDiceless? Never had any luck asking on twitter but people here skew older
Boosts would be nice. @Njord and I have been looking for a group to play with for many years now, to no avail
EDIT: Looks like there's enough people on here that would be interested in a game, so if you want to run one please let me know
@LeviKornelsen I help run a boutique gaming convention focusing on diceless and Indy RPGs in Metro Detroit, Ambercon US. I play Amber, Everyway, and just about anything else that someone makes interesting and not rules heavy. I really enjoy games where questions are explored but not necessarily answered.
I haven't been posting much here about role playing because I'm too busy gardening. But maybe someday.

#AmberDiceless You play a god. You can go anywhere, do anything in the whole multiverse. Almost. Because the rest of your F*ing family are gods too, and they just won't stop interfering. *Character generation* sets you at each other's throats, and you'll never look back. (Seriously - the absolute value of your attributes don't matter. All that matters is your rank amongst the rest of the family. The attribute auction process set storylines in motion that lasted us YEARS.)
@vitruvianmeeple You're one of the few people I've run across that even know about #AmberDiceless. I always enjoyed that system, even if it had some issues. Did you ever see the Lords of Gossamer & Shadow campaign on Kickstarter? It was a spiritual sequel to the system.
5. TTRPG you've played the most: I'm sensing a pattern here... I believe it would be #AmberDiceless off and on over the decades. Though usually running more than as a player.
4. First TTRPG you bought from its creator: This question confuses me because of how many ttrpgs are published. Any of the games I've purchased could be from its creator if they get paid. The one that stands out to me most may be Erick Wujcik for #TMNTandOtherStrangeness or #AmberDiceless RPG.
If we are talking about indie games then I might say #SwashbucklersOfThe7Skies or #DogsInTheVineyard as I was late to the Forge party.
Okay. #7TTRPGs that influenced me!
#AmberDiceless - VERY formative for me in learning to GM
#Deadlands - opened up more genres for me
#InSpectres - how I discovered the joy of players defining things
#DontRestYourHead - got me more into collaborative scenario creation
#Fiasco - my introduction to GMless games
#LadyBlackbird - opened up more effective ideas for prompt-based improv for me
#PbtA (in general) - got me thinking in terms of the story driving the rolls instead of vice/versa

@laidbackdm As always, this is a very tough thing to answer. If I absolutely had to choose only one, I guess I'd pick #AmberDiceless as it.
It shook my ideas of what an RPG could be and how to approach design, stories, and GM/player balance.
The advice by Wujcik was helpful in places and horrifying in others, but it opened up new ways of looking at games for me; then I discovered the Amber Diceless community and soaked in their energy and brilliance, changing how I run and play forever.
Alright, I've started my 1:1 #percyjackson campaign for my kid based on #amberdiceless / #LordsOfOlympus !
Except my kid want it it to take place in a Space Communist Utopia, so it's Percy Jackson aboard the Enterprise, in spaaaaaace!
