comment How do you keep players from using out of game knowledge when their characters wouldn't know the answer?
+1, I was going to write an answer but it would paraphrase this one...

comment Powergamer to Roleplayer
I think there is a good question here. I strongly encourage you to get past the "Closed" tag and try to get either this question re-open or create a new one.

comment Is there an RPG or RPG setting for Un Lun Dun, and if not, how and how easily would one go about making one?
Are you looking at only D&D rules or would you be open to a different rule set, such a fate for example?

comment How to Manage Player Frustration and Disengagement
Amber has luck built-in. They are attributes of the character (good and bad stuff). Generally, it is assumed you have one or the other. I like having both -- see the main character in Chinese Ghost Story for an example of how that works.

comment Reward distribution and story continuity with rotating players/GMs
Ars Magica does this, amongst others. Amber even suggest getting ride of the GM at all for large sections of the game.

comment Metafictional Lovecraft in a Call of Cthulhu campaign
The book has Lovecraft, Howard, and Smith joining together to fight the forces of the Mythos. It is a pretty good read but is nothing amazing.

comment Wages and economy in Rolemaster/MERP
It might be your problem because as far as I know, stackoverflow does not allow links to wares. I am not interested in a discussion about piracy and whether or when it is right or wrong. Just a comment, nothing more.

Just because a book is out of print does not mean you can download it for free.

comment In depth world building. Making connections
There is a good question in there (or maybe several ones) but as it currently stands, it's overly broad: You could write a whole book and not answer this!

@JonathanHobbs: To be honest, down votes who do not leave suggestions to either improve the answer or explain why are irksome and thus I ignore them.

Every question tagged with system-recommendation always seem to have GURPS as an answer...
