Agree with your first point about the poignancy, but completely disagree with your second point about it being just as emmy likely. Sadly, being trendy and topical is a big factor in awards like the Emmys/Oscars these days, and there just isn't anything avant-garde or trendy about a normal...

Did the same number with my wife. She was like, I can't tell if he's going to kill Ron Swanson or kiss him. And I was like well, could be both... I'd probably survive for a while in an apocalypse, but I'd definitely kill a lot of innocent people

I like the show and that was a well done episode, but it honestly killed the momentum of the show for me. It was like tossing a slow song into a party mix. Slow songs are fine, but we've all been to that party where the guy controlling the music fucks up the flow by putting on a song...

Apparently he's never played dnd...

Like others have said, the 70% seems totally reasonable to me. How many copies of Monopoly do you think these guys sell a year?

I've been off eq emu for a few years now but I'm giving this server a shot. Plan to 3 box, but I can't remember what I need to do that... WinEQ? EQWin? MQ? What are people using these days- i.e. what do I need to get? Edit: Nevermind- a few minutes playing and I remembered what I needed...

Devastating fumbles and criticals are important imo for a few reasons. One, like @Dr.Retarded said, I think it's important for the lowliest Hobbit to at least have a shot at getting that super lucky shot and taking down a foe that should technically be out of his league. Two, they really do...

Yep- I get that D&D bundles a bunch of elements into the concept of hitpoints. I just think there is a better way. One that results in quicker combat and prevents numbers bloat.

I totally get that. But I think it *should* be statistically dangerous for any character (PC or NPC) to engage in combat. The more attackers you go up against (i.e. the more attack rolls you face), the more risky it is. I've never liked the idea of lengthy combat, where two people with axes...

Always liked this system. I designed similar crit charts in my own system. For spells too.

Haven't done a deep dive, but at first glance it seems like Wizards is doing what they should have done in the first place: put some protections in place for proprietary content going forward, but leave 3rd party content engineered under the previous ogl alone. 100% guarantee you there were...

For the record, I have no issue with WoTC/Hasbro trying to make money. I have a game system myself that I hope to publish one day, and I would definitely like to make money with it. That said, there are lots of ways to monetize and make money. WoTC has chosen the worst way possible by trying...

Time for the IP lawyers to make some money

We believe that any interpretation that the OGL 1.0 or 1.0(a) were intended to be revocable or able to be deauthorized is incorrect, and with good reason. We were there.

Even more reason to drop dnd for other options.

I hope not.

I've been thinking the exact same thing. Still sitting on these inverse etfs. Edit: Did it. Finally sold my inverse positions and took profit. Be advised, the market is almost certainly going to crash next week to remind me how bad I am at timing things

My experiences have been hit and miss. Honestly, most of the time it's just "ok." Every once in awhile it sucks and you play with some pretty fucking weird people and generally just want the session to end. And every once in awhile you find some really cool people and end up playing with them...

Thought this was a joke. Nope. Holy shit

This is exactly the kind of shit I come to this board for

Can always hope, but don't hold your breath.

My buddy has like 6 cards with different cash back options and keeps them with him at all times. He pulls out a different card depending on what he's buying. Obviously, he does better than me with cash back for the month, but frankly it's not worth keeping track of all that shit to me. He has...

Amazon prime card myself. 5% back from Amazon and wholefoods. 2% on most other things. I usually net a couple hundo a month in cash back (that I put right back into Amazon and whole foods, ofc)

Yeah totally agree. I like Paul a lot but not at all who I would cast as Roland.

This always needed to be a tv series rather than movies. Obviously has a ton of potential, but so many ways to screw it up. Looking forward to it, but not getting my hopes up

https://www.semafor.com/article/12/06/2022/the-worlds-largest-stablecoin-looks-shaky Be wary about investing in any crypto or crypto adjacent firms right now

You know why

Yeah, I mean, it's not tough to find crazy people making wild predictions about anything on the Internet... Look at Jerome Powell's speech last week, for example.

Yeah it's real

Thought you guys might enjoy this. Comes out March 2023:

Definitely like the low key approach devs are using, rather than overhyping and trying to fund off the hype. Games that do that rarely succeed. Best thing these guys could do is get as far as they can while keeping a low profile.

Google ftx. If you are already familiar with the details of that, you shouldn't even need to ask that question

Inverted house of cards... as I've been saying for more than a year

Shit, Russian billionaires dying doesn't mean much. Those fuckers fall out high rise windows at least once a month. Helicopter crash is just the deluxe version of that. Edit: apparently it's more than once a month. Here you go 2022 Russian businessmen mystery deaths - Wikipedia

This looks fucking awesome

Yeah I'm sure. What I feel like means nothing as far as what the market does- I've learned that.

I feel like a statement like this means nothing.

This was inevitable. We've needed a culling for a long time. That, and more regulation. There are a whole host of things that need to happen before crypto can make a case as something other than a wildly speculative investment, but those two things are near the top

I was already pretty convinced by general reviews that it seemed great, but always good to check here too imo.

All done with my current games and looking for a new game- Valheim worth picking up at this point?
