Chore Wars — may the best sword prevail!

Filed under: Interesting/useful sites — kyraninse @ 5:30 pm

So, it’s come to my attention that my finances are in sad shape and so is the state of the living quarters. *dodges smack from conscience*

The problem is, with working 40 hours a week, I just can’t find it in me to do anything other than go to work. (Another reason to quit job while school is in session…) And it’s so easy to justify picking up the odd muffin or slice of cake because “I’ve worked so hard, I bloody well deserve this”.

Enter Chore Wars! *cues fanfare*

The basic idea is you set up a character, join or create a party, and then make up ‘adventures’ that are based around chores. You can assign how many “experience points” you can get for completing the adventure and also how much gold and loot you have a chance of gaining.

The funny thing was, I was just thinking the other day that I should really start a points system for myself so I can decide when I can buy a new book or somesuch.

I’ll be playing around with the site and I’ll probably post about how it’s been working for me later.
