    How do you handle gems as a GM?

    I voted for the third option. It usually goes like this at my table: DM: "You find three gems." Bob: "Do they look valuable?" DM: "Make an Intelligence (Nature) check." Bob: (rolls) "Ugh, five." DM: "You can't tell for sure, they might be valuable, or they might be cut glass." Joe: "Can...

    D&D 5E (2024) Should a general Adventurer class be created to represent the Everyman?

    I think it could work, but it should probably be a custom homebrew class. Just from the first three pages of comments here, you can already see that different people have different ideas about what an "everyman" is supposed to be, and do, and how. The only way you'll get a satisfying result is...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Yeah? Well, what about hypocrisy? How come nobody's talking about that, huh?! (All joking aside, I actually prefer "whataboutery.")

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Another problem is birds building nests with still-smoldering cigarette butts, and causing fires. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-london-26464789 https://www.huffpost.com/entry/bird-cigarette-fire_n_4911855...

    When disagreeing…

    Another critical part of disagreeing on the Internet (or anywhere else, for that matter) is to recognize when the disagreement is over and move on. In every discussion, there comes a point when there is nothing new to add, everything that needed to be said has been, and nobody is ever going to...

    Thanks for the clarification, Joe. This is what I needed to hear.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    A recent XKCD comic reminded me of That Thread. When two people won't budge on their point of view, they just talk past each other.

    Goodman Games Revives Relationship With Anti-Semitic Publisher For New City State Kickstarter [UPDATED]

    These are not "equivalents." Nazis actually exist, and actively seek to harm others. EDIT: @Some Dude beat me to it.

    Goodman Games Revives Relationship With Anti-Semitic Publisher For New City State Kickstarter [UPDATED]

    That's really disappointing. I'm a big fan of Goodman Games, and I especially love their Original Adventure Reincarnated series of products...but they have chosen to go somewhere I won't follow. All I can say is that I hope they reconsider--not just for me, but for the sake of their reputation...

    Goodman Games Revives Relationship With Anti-Semitic Publisher For New City State Kickstarter [UPDATED]

    I just saw this post, and it'll take me a while to get through all 14 pages of comments (busy day at work). I'm hoping for some good news from Goodman Games by the time I'm caught up.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Well, there will be no more "buying a house" posts from me in this thread. Because from now on it will be "having bought a house" when when I complain about the bureaucracy of real estate. We just signed the closing papers. The house, and the oppressive mortgage attached to it, are finally...
