It's funny how often this is the case with armchair experts.

Oddly enough, I've noticed some people who get really into charop and white room theorizing actually dislike Draw Steel because they think it's too easy.

I don't know the specifics. He seems to be making a lot of the tokens/maps we use but I think it's being done with an AI art generator, and as I don't use those things I have no idea how much time it would take. This seems more in line with what I'd expect in terms of prep. But I haven't made...

For those of you running without using a prewritten adventure: how much time do you spend preparing for each session? In one game I'm in the director said he spends about 12 hours each week, which seems like far too much, but I've only run the playtest version The Fall of Blackbottom and The...

We're living in the future, some of them might not even be human.

If y'all want to fit in with the youths, 'copaganda' is the preferred nomenclature.

Very uncharitable interpretation of what I said but if you need to feel this judgemental and condescending, go off I guess.

Whew, sometimes I come across a post by a person and think "That really explains a lot about you"

I recognize you were just making one of the classic dnd jokes but I'm now realizing I could have been clearer.

You're not the boss o me!

I think I've hit the point with my group where I'm going to cancel the game (for good) again. We'll see how long it takes for me to forget why I stop playing with them this time. Oh well.

I think your position on this is probably realistic. It's one thing to understand, in an abstract way, that terrible things are going on around the world and not do anything but I think it would be a horse of an entirely different color to constantly be aware of them. It doesn't even need to...
