/tg/ gets shit done.

Other boards talk about projects but never finish them.

/tg/? Oh no. /tg/ gets shit done. Occasionally. Finishing it, on the other hand? Well, that's less /tg/ as a whole and more of a handful of devoted individuals that do all the work. But we like to pretend it's a team effort anyway, it helps keep the community together.

Listed below are projects that /tg/ has started and finished.

ASSORTED SHIT THAT IS DONE

  • Multitude of Quests (= draw/writefaggotry + improv theatre), including awesome ones.
  • Translations of things unavailable in English.

MANNER IN WHICH SHIT TYPICALLY GETS DONE

  • Fa/tg/uys throw random ideas around, receive helpful feedback and suggestions (e.g. "fornicate thyself and shoveth off this mortal coil").
  • Someone takes an idea and runs with it in a way that good enough to make everyone say "Hey, this could be awesome".
  • Massive thread brainstorm ensues, occasionally distilling and expanding on the best parts of the idea for at least one thread (sometimes many, many more) but just as frequently cluttering it with barely relevant nonsense contradicting everything that came before it.
  • If it's fully developed into something amazing, the idea's ultimate fate depends on what kind of Shit needs to happen for it to Get Done.
    • If it's an idea for use in an RPG campaign (PC, campaign premise, villain, etc.), odds are several fa/tg/uys will steal it for future sessions. In some cases, one returns and regales the board with entertaining stories of how it turned out.
    • If it's an awesome fictional concept, there's a slight chance that writefaggotry and/or drawfaggotry will occur.
      • In either case, if the idea calls for more in the way of actual work, there's a slim chance that one or two fa/tg/uys will roll up their sleeves and get to work, turning the concept into a reality over the course of several weeks/months/years. And it will be glorious-assuming they don't get discouraged or bored and quit partway through, as is often the case. More frequently, nobody at all will ever actually do anything with the concept, and so the idea is completely forgotten within a week (or even less) in favor of the next seemingly awesome idea which nobody wants to put genuine effort into either. Fa/tg/uys have a serious attention span problem like that.
        • In the vanishingly small case said shit does somehow get done, the entire board will take credit for it despite doing little to none of the actual work.

SHIT THAT AIN'T DONE YET

Oh, plenty, but this isn't the place for it. See /tg/'s homebrews.

Note

Please note that /tg/ getting shit done is to be taken in the context of a fa/tg/uy. In comparison to other accomplishments, /tg/ really only creates pen and paper outlines at best. The phrase "/tg/ gets shit done" is just wishful thinking. A more accurate way of putting it would be "/tg/ gets shit done".

Evidence that some shit has been done
