NUELOW FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
- Q1: What does NUELOW stand for?
A1: Nothing. NUELOW is a pun of sorts. It's pronounced "new low" and
embodies the originators vision of where this game fits in the overall
world of RPG net.freebies and commercial RPGs. The NUELOW games don't
claim to be anything spectacular or innovative; in fact, it's probably
the worst game ever devised... a new low for the "art" of role-playing.
Hence, NUELOW.
- Q2: You guys think you're clever, don't you?
A2: No, not really. We just have a lot of time on our hands.
- Q3: I've seen Usenet posts referring to a NUELOW mailing list. How do I get
on that?
A3: The NUELOW mailing list has gone the way of the dodo; its maintainer,
NUELOW originator Steve Miller, got himself a full-time job at a certain
game company that everyone loves to hate, and was obligated to abandon
his net.baby.
- Q4: Where do I send my questions or comments, then?
A4: Questions and comments regarding the NUELOW games can directed to
Steve "The One To Blame" Miller at <nuelow@earthlink.net>,
and questions specifically relating to the web archive or HTML versions of
the games can be sent to Mark Damon Hughes at
<kamikaze@kuoi.asui.uidaho.edu>
- Q5: Where can I get the NUELOW games?
A5: At Mark 'Kamikaze' Hughes' web archive:
<http://kuoi.asui.uidaho.edu/~kamikaze/Nuelow/>
- Q6: Can I contribute to NUELOW?
A6: Yes, as long as you acknowledge Steve Miller's ownership of the NUELOW
game somewhere in your file. See any NUELOW game for the proper way to
do that. Contact Steve Miller for
additional details, as well as
Mark Damon Hughes for
information on how to submit to this web archive. (Of course, you need to
be aware that being a NUELOW contributor is not only a sign of a total lack
of anything that resembles a life but it might damage your reputation for
as long as the Internet exists.)
- Q7: Is role-playing an art form?
A7: Not with NUELOW, it ain't.
- Q8: Is NUELOW suitable for children?
A8: That depends. The games are certainly no more smutty than prime-time
on American broadcast television. Use that as your guide. At any rate,
the game is HIGHLY suitable for those with juvenile mindsets and who
giggle everytime someone says the words "sex" or "breasts".
- Q9: You DO think you're clever, don't you.
A9: Do VAMPIRE players wear black?
