There is!  It's not organized very neatly, or indexed, but it's all there.  It's in a series of bound volumes. You should be able to find them if you poke around a little.  The first one's called "Storm Front"...

Seriously, it seems to me that it might be worth consolidating the fairly small number of places where  Jim has changed something in the text - for example, the shift in what Ivy remembers between DM and SmF - into what would be a fairly small document saying which versions are intended as definitive.

Mildly OCD. Please do not troll.

"What do you mean, Lawful Silly isn't a valid alignment?"

kittensgame, Sandcastle Builder, Homestuck, Welcome to Night Vale, Civ III, lots of print genre SF, and old-school SATT gaming if I had the time.  Also Pandemic Legacy is the best game ever.

Seconded!

I realize that the RPG may answer some of this, Priscellie, but it's also gonna cost around a hundred bucks, what with shipping and handling (at least it will cost that much for those of us who are demophobic, and thus don't do cons).  In the meantime, a spot on here would fill the niche nicely.

The book that categorizes and sums up at least 80-90% of what you're after is Our World, and is priced at $40. FWIW. :)

We have an entire sub-forum dedicated to the RPG.  I'm sure folks there will be happy to answer any of your questions.
