    Do you observe Thanksgiving?

    I’d echo that. Taking advantage of getting the day off in a country with little to no vacation time isn’t “observing the holiday.” Doing the specific holiday stuff or doing your own take on the holiday, sure. We “observe” it in the OP’s overly broad sense, but we don’t observe it in any way...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    A lot of ADHDers cover with humor. Getting cranky at him won’t help. If it is ADHD he likely beats himself up about it more than you ever could. I’d suggest starting where you can. Adjust your expectations. Give him more slack and follow conversations up with a written recap via email. Don’t...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Yeah. It’s a real PITA. I can’t remember verbal instructions to save my life. It’s either written down or it might as well not have happened. It’s a working memory issue with the wiring in our brains. However frustrating it is for you, it’s 1000 times more frustrating for us. We have to live...

    I love UDT. You can get some pre-made on Etsy if you don't want to craft your own. Professor DM really should have trademarked that. The only "flaw" I can see with UDT is the explicit centering of one space. This prevents multiple simultaneous fights...unless you have two UDT and sundry props...

    I came across this video a few days ago. Might be useful for someone.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    That seems like an incredibly bad idea. Why, yes. I have been reading too many crime novels and watching too many crime films lately. Why do you ask?

    Shadowdark Shadowdark Organized Play?

    Plus both Kelsey and her wife are trying to get pregnant, so Shadowdark might be on the back burner for some time.

    Modules: Made to Read vs Made to Run?

    The other options are using timers, dead experts, or moving the far-away expert into the local area.

    Best practices for easy-to-run modules [+]

    I wouldn’t know. I’ve never written in any book I’ve ever owned. Notebooks, sure. Book books, never. Highlighters? In textbooks, sure. My old staple-bound books are falling apart from 40+ years of reading and use.

    Exactly the same here. My ideal monster stat block would be all the flavor and descriptions with markers for higher or lower stats in given areas so you can scale them at will. And the great thing about having the ability to scale the monsters if you want is the people who don’t want to can...

    Best practices for easy-to-run modules [+]

    Sorry. If it’s going to be expensive the thing better damned well last a long time. I’d rather get a pad of tear-off sheets to use up with the hardback. Or a box with good glue-bound books plus cards and other bits. Dry-erase sheets or cards would split the difference. I have shelves of old...
