Step 6: Mandate Metrics that Matter
Posted in 10 Ways to Save the Cam on June 25, 2008 | 16 Comments »
When we cast aside the problems that are hurting our game right now (XP Glut, Broken Custom Items, Faulty Appeals, and a Confusing Addendum), the way forward doesn’t become more clear. In fact, just the opposite. There is no way forward…because we don’t have a way to measure success beyond fixing the problems that [...]
A Quick Note on Our Absence and Steps #6 – 10
Posted in 10 Ways to Save the Cam on June 25, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
For the past five steps, we’ve shown what we believe to be the changes needed to solve the growing crisis facing the Camarilla. The next five steps, beginning today, will now detail what we think the Camarilla needs to do to ensure a prosperous future.
In some ways, these posts are harder to write than [...]
Notes on Step 5

And we’re BACK!
Our sincerest apologies for our lengthy absence, but a DST election, the removal of the Arb Board, and the resignation of the NST and SW RST have kept our Cam Lives quite busy! Sometimes there just isn’t time to work on a grand manifesto with all the changes going on around here. [...]
Step 5: Streamline the Appeals Process
Posted in 10 Ways to Save the Cam on May 14, 2008 | 41 Comments »
In an Ideal world, there would of course be no need for an appeals system. STs would never make rules calls that were inaccurate, unduly harsh, or biased. People wouldn’t cheat, mistakes wouldn’t be made, and when they were, everyone would agree how they should be rectified. Perhaps on occasion, an appeal would [...]

Our apologies, but for a few days “Real Life” reached up and swallowed us! Great thanks to all of you who came by the site this week to look at Step 4 and offer your comments. Remember, if you know someone who wants to see the Cam be a better place, send them [...]
Step 4: Get an Addendum that Works
Posted in 10 Ways to Save the Cam on May 2, 2008 | 24 Comments »
If you sit back and think about it, the Addendum is sort of a microcosm for the Camarilla itself.
One one hand, it’s genius. Without it, the idea of a Global Chronicle would be laughable at best. There would be ZERO consistency from game to game and players would live in constant fear of “House [...]
Notes on Step 3

Although we will probably never again have as many hits as we did for Day 1, Save the Cam is still going strong. We have started to see people searching us out via Google and links from other blogs. If you like what we are arguing for, please post us somewhere (your blog, [...]
Step 3: Stop Letting Players Write Mechanics

Ladies and Gentlemen,
Let us introduce you to Killing Joke.
Killing Joke is a Werewolf who hunts Shartha. He is in play currently, and belongs to one of us (Okay… Mark.) Nothing on Killing Joke’s sheet would be considered out of place for a Cam werewolf. He has a Strength, Dexterity and Wits of 5, [...]
