Summer
Update!
Contest Winner, Unrelenting Wuxia on its way, Call Out For Online Environment!
The winner of our Winter Contest was Chuck Hubbard for his Ba Bel Ngenesis submission, which can be downloaded HERE. Congratulations Chuck!
While one half of Hunt & Killam has been away at school this year, the other half has been hard at work on a personal project, a Fanboy Freebie Release, called Unrelenting Wuxia. Apocrypha Studios has given him permission to use the Providence System, and when it is released, you will be able to download it for free.
With RPGing gaining an ever more prominent online presence, Hunt & Killam has decided to explore the idea of an online 24/7 Digichat RPG environment. But we will need your help with its creation and success! Join the discussion HERE at RPG Soapbox.

NGENESIS IS FINISHED!
Heyo Questionable Crew!
So, quick update... Ngenesis is finished!
We are just waiting for the evaluation copy to arrive and give the ok before it is released to the public, should only take a couple of weeks to arrive. Once it is ready we will be making some big noise about its official release date. This is huge. Ngenesis was, originally, supposed to be a summer project just to test the quality of LULU publishing products. 3 years later we have developed, tested and refined our own amazing system and turned Ngenesis into an exciting test of experimental "non-canon" RPGing! We have a couple ideas of things we would like to do to celebrate the official release of Ngenesis (An online chat meeting for example). But we would also like to hear your ideas! So, prepare for the release of Ngenesis sometime near the end of Novemeber and post / email / message us any ideas you have for a release celebration!

Studios Fan Contest!
The feedback on the free downloadable PDF Apocryphon has been incredible since its release on Dec 18th.

Our way of saying thanks for joining the Questionable Crew!

Happy
Holidays from the Questionable Crew !
We started Ngenesis as a learning experience, and learning we are. One thing we are learning is that it takes a bit longer than we thought to put all this together. So, in response to the many inquires about when Ngenesis is coming out and how it is coming along, we decided to put together a holiday gift. Apocrypha Studios presents The PDF Apocryphon. It includes an introduction to the Providence System, easy to modify and use for any game, setting or story. Also, an introduction to Ngenesis, a full Trin of playable Characters and a unique Chronicle, the Tree of Woe, exclusive to the Apocryphon. Full details and Download can be found here. You ask and we answer, enjoy folks! - the Questionable Crew
the Questionable Crew are still hard at work on Ngenesis. It is a bit later than we had planned, but that is ok, the more time we use to work on it, the better it will be. Writing is still moving onward and the graphics are just about done. However, there comes a time when your working on one thing a bit too long and you need a break so you can come back to it fresh. So now a bit of fun and creative outletting and playtesting of the Providence System. Rapscallion is going to be running a game once a week for a few hours online at Deviant Group for 3 to 5 players.
Full details of can be found here. Happy Halloween Folks! - the Questionable Crew

With the addition of a graphic artist and writing continuing as planned, Ngenesis should be ready to hit the printers at the end of summer - the Questionable Crew

Anyone know how to use MySQL Databases? I had a program that turned it into making sense, but it wouldn't work on my site, I can only access it through phpMyAdmin which is all gooblygook to me. I would love to have some decent forums working instead of the lame guestbook forums I have currently set up. Anyone interesting in helping us out here, please send me an email at damien@huntandkillam.com - Damien Hunt
I would also like to thank Jason Just on behalf of the Questionable Crew at Apocrypha Studios for the amazing work he did putting together our logo, it is amazing and we are looking forward to working with Symbolique Studios again in the future. - Rapscallion
