I've seen it used as a smal 'o'. (Like WoW)

So... CoCK.

A joke cover could be made.

Maybe that would be what we would call the version with stuff like Dwarven pubic beards (from this thread) in it.

Clearly, Koumei's Cock Mage and Mister Sinister's Master of Cock should be in the document, if they're willing to let them added.

You should gain sanity for finding out that the problems of a region are because there are fucking monsters there.

The only thing I've produced that made it into the link repository is the Spellherd; feel free to include it. It never seemed quite right, though, so if it does make it in I might go back and tweak it.

Just go back and tweak it and post about it.
If an earlier version of something is transcribed and then a BETTER version comes out... we can just update it.

We're not dealing with print runs. xD

Is this as dead as it looks?

Mmmm, well there's the contributions that people have all signed up to do, and then there's the task of actually putting it all into a thing, which only has a few people working on it.

I wouldn't say it's entirely dead, but work is sporadic at best. Feel free to edit in things yourself if you like and submit a pull request (https://github.com/SqueeG/awesomeTome) or PM it to someone or something like that.

I think that new work happens the most when people form new groups and realize that it's hard as hell to get people into Tome for the first time. Then, once a group is established enough that people are familiar with things, they slow down on project work and just do stuff for their own game. At least, that's how it is with me.

So: SuperTome

Is this the same project as awesomeTome?

SuperTome is Lokathor's fork of the project. I have no idea if it is more or less complete, or how much it diverges from stuff posted here.

I kept tabs on it for a bit.
He touched just about everything, bringing it to his standards. :)

I still have a bunch of half finished stuff on my HDD...

awesomeTome on github is the new version meant to replace the awesometome on google code.

SuperTome is a project I threw together because my group was playing a Tome game at the time and I find LaTeX a relaxing thing to do while listening to podcasts. We used it as our "unofficial handbook" of included materials. Mostly because the players were mostly of the sort that didn't care to look outside of just one book for the things they wanted. When our group stopped playing our Tome game, I stopped working on SuperTome.

That explains the insane amount of LaTeX you seem to pump out randomly!
