@bedirthan we even had a tornado just east of Madison.

I saw an ad today for a #DND adventure that is almost one thousand pages long! That seems kind of ridiculous.

Tim_Eagon,
@Tim_Eagon@dice.camp avatar

@seedling That was my first thought too, but the comments under the ad indicated it was written by humans.

@Tim_Eagon@dice.camp avatar

@bedirthan Indeed

@malin Entire adventure paths taking players from level 1 to 20 in 3e and Pathfinder aren't even that long.

Tim_Eagon,
@Tim_Eagon@dice.camp avatar

@kevin It's a campaign taking players from level 5 to 13, but it does include introductory adventures (levels 1-5), a campaign setting, 36 new subclasses, and 135 page bestiary, and a bunch of other stuff.

@malin I'll stick to my zines!

AC is on the fritz just as we hit the first heat wave of summer ๐Ÿ˜‘

@greycat Our AC broke down (and damaged the walls and carpet of our basement) during a heatwave in 2019. It sucked so bad. Hopefully, yours works out better!

In the same amount of words it takes to list a single 2014 character's official personality I was able to list the six characters, their origin fiction and their personalities.

I'm never not using short-form personality again.

@bedirthan What do you mean?

Tim_Eagon,
@Tim_Eagon@dice.camp avatar

@bedirthan Oh yeah, while I still like D&D-style alignment, I like personality tags like that, especially for NPCs.

@jacklaridian I still need to watch it!

@multiverseofbadness@toot.wales avatar

My quick reaction on #Threads after one day -

No shocker - I hate the way it incorporates with the #fediverse as a whole and, at least currently, feels like it's working in (ish) bad faith.. that may change, but for now they are simply using us as potential eyeballs to boost their engagement numbers (esp for their "big accounts")

BUT...

From my experience, it beats the absolute pants off of #BlueSky in terms of actual "topic" interaction

Your miles may vary...

Tim_Eagon,
@Tim_Eagon@dice.camp avatar

@jacklaridian @multiverseofbadness I've seen the BS numbers (sub 1M posts per day), but I didn't really experience them until I bridged my Fediverse account the other day and took a look at some BS accounts that I thought left here for there. They haven't posted in weeks or even months.

Tim_Eagon,
@Tim_Eagon@dice.camp avatar

@jacklaridian @multiverseofbadness Some decamped to FB and IG, but I think most people went back to Twitter or just quit microblogging. Of the commercial Twitter-clones, I think they're all going to fail except for maybe Threads (but that's just because it's an extension of IG rather than it's own merits).

Tim_Eagon,
@Tim_Eagon@dice.camp avatar

@multiverseofbadness @jacklaridian There's a strong core here that can be foundational for later, but some folks have left and some check-in periodically (I turn on notifications for when they post, so I don't miss them).

Revisiting Star Wars prequels

Phantom Menace: Fine for 6-year-olds.

done

@mikertrice Ironically, my 6 year old got bored while watching clips of The Phantom Menace...

@mikertrice I mean, it only gets significantly worse and then significantly mediocre after that.

My wife and I finally (finally!) had a conversation about my increasing memory loss. And growing signs of early dementia.

It's something I've been wanting to do for a couple of years. She is quite upset, but I made my peace with it a while ago. It's just getting impossible to ignore.

Tim_Eagon,

@Da_Gut Iโ€™m sending you good thoughts, vibes, and prayers!

Druid in Ravenloft game: "I dunno, these servants of Strahd don't seem as tough."

Six seconds later half the party is unconscious.

@mikertrice Well, that escalated quickly.

It's amazing that you can still learn seemingly obvious things as an adult

For example : never buy a sectional

..because if half the sectional shits the bed and your genius idea of "just use the other half of until it breaks down as well" is poorly received by your spouse, you have to replace the entire thing ...

This is an interesting post from Rich Redman from The Game Mechanics about not selling very well & their role in & in general. It's from 2004, but a lot of it is still relevant today, especially for creators.

@bss @YUMDM I'm not surprised because in a culture of mass consumption people always share about watching movie x, reading book y, playing video game z, etc.

Tim_Eagon,
@Tim_Eagon@dice.camp avatar

@YUMDM @bss I'm probably 50/50 or 60/40 over the years. I've always loved published scenarios (well, the good ones at least).
