Tolookah ,

I can hear that TV right now.

Tolookah ,

O_o

Are LCDs and projectors anti woke? (Something something CRT not cathode Ray tube)

Tolookah ,

The real treasure is the cabbages we make along the way.

Tolookah ,

"Magic missile is just a teleportation spell to a gun range. Create food and water? Teleportation. Teleport? Believe it or not, a hack of disintegration"

Tolookah ,

Check out the podcast Star wars: redemption, followed by smugglers blues. It's an entertaining play of ffg's Star wars. (I'm pretty sure they have a discord and have done some question answering over the Web.)

Tolookah ,

Very true, these guys feel like they tend not to skip rules though. I will note that I don't know the rules as written, so they might be skipping major parts and I wouldn't know it.

Tolookah ,

I listen to them, the stories can be great, and it's entertainment. Great for the car

Tolookah ,

I'm not sure I would believe it, on the news articles alone. "Trump incinerated by Biden on capital steps" or " McDonald's smashes trump's throat" are titles I would expect on any old Tuesday

Tolookah ,

WANT NOT

Tolookah ,

Yeah, mauled isn't really a "making jokes shortly after" thing

Tolookah ,

Tux is pretty sexy though.

Tolookah ,

And HR would hate them.

The "Hey, did you know that you can Fuck this?" Guy.

Tolookah ,

Bingo! Who'd have thunk that horny zombie cicadas would have come up

I lowkey hope these stories are fake or it's all the same guy ( ttrpg.network )

I noticed increased frequency of posts in places like r/rpghorrorstories, that describe a situation where the player brings a tiny veiled or just a shameless copy of a popular fictional character - Sokka, Scanlan, John Snow, Walter White - except "more based" or "less of a cuck". What follows is a story of the player doing some...

Tolookah ,

Unless they were playing a chicken or rooster person, and meant to say cluck. Or wanted a character with a base, instead of a wanderer.

Tolookah ,

Or trust your players to metagame in the opposite direction, making terrible decisions.

Tolookah ,

How hard is it to add new systems? I'm intrigued at how the campaign organization looks like, but currently playing beamsaber, a forged in the dark game.

Tolookah ,

I don't need 30 minutes, I use two Trello boards, one for me, one shared with players, the player one is factions and important names, the gm one is hooks (planned or spoken out loud)->session ideas->session notes, and a catch-all that is a list of names when I need one.

I also use azgaar's map generator. For the world map: https://azgaar.github.io/Fantasy-Map-Generator/

And I occasionally feed all that into chatgpt to generate me some dialog better than I can manage. "Generate me a mission briefing for a mission where the squad needs to...". (I don't speak military well)

For a forged in the dark game, I'd love to see easy to use character and/or mission specific devil's bargain generators, and a way to store what I have, possibly in a better format.

Mostly, I feel like I'm a pretty blank slate.

Tolookah ,

He needs a submarine to his heart

Tolookah ,

There's also the rogues that grew up in a family of rogues. So it's not instant death! (But it's close)

Tolookah ,

Full score or just the start? I'm running beamsaber right now, and I feel like I'm building the plane as we are flying, it's a bit harrowing. I don't yet feel like I'm quick enough on my feet to work out everything as we go, and I'm not sure I'm supposed to, really.

Tolookah ,

I will offer to hp that they rent space next to my trash can for $35/month, and I won't even monitor it. (I might put up a sign saying "PC load letter" and provide a baseball bat)

Tolookah ,

It feels like you just described dial up Internet and using IP addresses.

Tolookah ,

BBS dial up, where it's some local like server, that might have access to others via menus. Old school stuff.

Tolookah ,

Make math rocks.

Tolookah ,

I think the lizard would be more into wizards and other non strength builds, something something tender meat. Barbarians are too tough and gamey.

Tolookah ,

You got to it first. I was going to comment on the amazing/nicer hair.

They look happier.

Tolookah ,

"Aww, he's got his dad's knife" - never a phrase you want to hear in the delivery room.

(I assume this is how drow genetics work)

Tolookah ,

I've got a Bluetooth toothbrush, and it's sensor set lets me know if I'm brushing too hard or moving the brush too much ( it knows optimal pressure and movement). If I'm not walking around, it'll also show me a mouth map of my brushing, potentially suggesting missed spots.

In no way does it need the Internet though, that's dumb. I've not used the Bluetooth since the first week, but the pressure feedback is great, and has gotten me to brush better, so that's a win. If it'll start telling me the ph balance of my mouth? I'm sure that could be useful to track (I think you can get that electronically without much effort, other sensor types might be harder)

Tolookah ,

I think in this case, username checks out.

Tolookah ,

... It vibrates too?

Tolookah ,

I just wish my printer could actually print a car. 200mm bed is a little small

Tolookah ,

Faraday cage bathrooms?

Tolookah ,

I seem to only be able to do voices for written text. While GM-ing I have ideas, but finding words takes all the brain power I have and everyone sounds like me. Reading a book to my kid? everyone has a voice, even the one off kid that has a silly voice (and likely stays around so I have to keep doing the voice)

Tolookah ,

The question to ask there is "what's your approach?" The dice will smooth out wrinkles, but I need to know how to narrate the success or fail, otherwise, any persuasion will be you saying "aw, c'mon!" And that gets a bit boring, unless you're on a hot streak and everyone crumples to your plea

What is the strangest/most creative form of government you have created for your world(s)?

Hey everyone! Let's try to get some more activity in here. I was wondering what kind of rulers you have all created. I realize most medieval settings will probably have a monarch rule the lands, but this does not have to be the case. So, what kind of governing systems have you created in your worlds?...

Tolookah ,

I wouldn't say creative, but a soulless corporatocracy is our current ruling group. On an interstellar scale, it's all about minerals and stealing knowledge from others.

Tolookah ,

It's not a news channel, legally speaking

Tolookah ,

Any time you're given a number for the save, just say "huh." Like it was an interesting result.

Tolookah ,

When a metagamer knows if the bluff is a bluff, they tend to act like the PC knows it's a bluff, even if it wasn't. (As an Example)

Tolookah ,

Hold on, Star Trek: Discovery is about Fey?

Tolookah , (edited )

Or you sleep with a bunch of managers

Edit… I typed work, you damn phone. Or maybe I’m tired and need sleep

Tolookah ,

Nah, everything over 4 is 4. Rounded down like.

Tolookah ,

I made a dog, human intellect, dog voice box. Not fantasy, so no actual speaking with him, but he texts. (Never on screen, so no one knows how)

Tolookah ,

Username oddly checks out

Tolookah ,

… That’s what we call the dwarf.

Tolookah ,

It’s only for one number, so anything over 10 except for 25 (10+10+5) will hit. 11-24,26+

Tolookah ,

Range 36? I’d give it to them, unfortunately, Google tells me bless is range 30.

Tolookah ,

If you use Google Fi, the setting is in the fi app. Click your name, scroll down.

Tolookah ,

No, you are what you eat.

Eat the rich.
