The very first Captain Spaulding recipe test has been recorded by the awesome Scott Sigler (author of new SF/Horror/thriller, PANDEMIC). He was kind enough to post his thought on his blog, along with a picture and audio. So I’m stealing both. HAHAHA SCOTT.

From the Storium blog:
Alpha 2 is the latest playtest of Storium, the online storytelling game. It incorporates much of what we’ve learned from our prior playtest, and it’s a big change. Alpha 2 rethinks several of the game’s key mechanics, with the goal of making Storium faster, easier and more fun to play.
If you’re already a Storium playtester, you’re already in! Alpha 2 awaits you. We’ve left your existing games untouched. To see Alpha 2 in action, simply start or join a new game.

I’m looking forward in starting my first Storium game, which will be an SF space station game. Sign up and check out what’s already there, and I’ll post here when the game is live.
