  1. Broken Rooms: An ATL-Filled RPG

    consider that the pod is early 2000s and predates a lot of pop culture and social media companies.

  2. Broken Rooms: An ATL-Filled RPG

    15 and 17 both sound interesting to me. Wouldn't mind revisiting some older ideas either.

  3. Turing-Nash Power Hour Redux: A Collaborative Timeline

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Go_terms apparently atari got its name from this. they could just as easily have called it something like aji or moyo.

  4. Turing-Nash Power Hour Redux: A Collaborative Timeline

    if someone from otl was born more than 9 months after june of 1954, then they don't exist in the atl. although dabney and a bunch of other people involved in the formation of atari were born before 1954 at least.

  5. Turing-Nash Power Hour Redux: A Collaborative Timeline

    the pod is in the early 50s... atari probably doesn't even exist.

  6. Turing-Nash Power Hour Redux: A Collaborative Timeline

    idk, motorola? not sure how plausible that is.

  7. Turing-Nash Power Hour Redux: A Collaborative Timeline

    joe dante came up with "rumble-rama" so maybe another console along those lines could be one of the earlier competers... the rumbler or rumble pack, c. 1962.

  8. Turing-Nash Power Hour Redux: A Collaborative Timeline

    a few more. again varies in quality but a few stick out. like the story of lizzie borden and ape women in london. i do have a few ideas for alternate pop culture but i think we can discuss some of that through pm first.

  9. Turing-Nash Power Hour Redux: A Collaborative Timeline

    randomly generated b movie titles. could help for games or movies. https://www.seventhsanctum.com/generate.php?Genname=bmovie

  10. Turing-Nash Power Hour Redux: A Collaborative Timeline

    maybe something in the vein of space amoeba? again continuing the b-movie motiff. depends a lot on the actual capabilities of the system though.

  11. Turing-Nash Power Hour Redux: A Collaborative Timeline

    was atomovision inspired by b-movies? anyway here are a few names generated for consoles that could be of use:

  14. The Ballad of the Lovecraft: A Collaborative Pop Culture TL

    apologies for the recent drop in activity. i've been pretty sick the last few days, flu i guess. oh well (insert date) 1973: (insert name) writes on the discovery of (insert fictional language) in (insert title), with introduction by L. Sprague de Camp. (insert date) 1978: Colin Wilson writes...

  15. The Ballad of the Lovecraft: A Collaborative Pop Culture TL

    what about more lovecraft-like cults and increased interest in new age/new religious movements in the 70s and 80s. also the satanic panic from otl. seems like the timeline is way, way more convergent than i expected it to be given how early pod is in any case

    (insert date) 1929: Inspired by a fever dream, (insert name) writes the weird fiction piece "Tuzur." (insert date) 1933: (insert name) writes the story "Valley of Gapon," seen as rivaling Lovecraft in the emerging genre of weird fiction.

  17. Your personal Nintendo adaptation idea.

    i just want a sequel to the super mario brothers movie. somehow.

  18. AHC: Make "Cassette Futurism" real

    it's actually not implausible that magnetic tape would be more widely used. sony in this decade has been developing tape that can store hundreds of terabytes of data. https://www.extremetech.com/computing/181560-sony-develops-tech-for-185tb-tapes-3700-times-more-storage-than-a-blu-ray-disc
