I don't see that premise anywhere in the OP, but I can't dispute that you do see it, so it appears we're each talking about a different thought experiment. I withdraw any arguments I made against your conclusions. My posts are unrelated to the topic you're discussing.

In my proposed thought experiment, the Neutrals aren't maintaining Evil. Some amount of Evil will always exist, without needing anyone to maintain it. And at no point was it proposed that Neutrals go about killing Good people. There's no requirement that Neutrals commit Evil acts. Nor is there...

You're quoting my post, but you don't seem to be addressing my proposed take on Neutrality. I'm proposing a Neutrality which believes the world already contains the least possible amount of Evil. According to that world view, any "Good" character who feels compelled to destroy all Evil is...

I don't believe those are the only two things that make this work. Muscular Neutral also works if Neutral believes the Balance represents the minimal amount of Evil that can exist in the world. Muscular Good must be opposed because Hell is paved with Good intentions. Any attempt to eliminate...

Quick progress update: If I organize everything into two- and four-page spreads, depending on how I size things, I'm sitting on between 550 and 600 pages of content. On the one hand, this isn't a physical book, so there's no inherent limitation on the number of pages I include. On the other...

Yin and yang. Good contains the seeds of Evil, and Evil contains the seeds of Good. If Evil wins for a moment, it eventually destroys itself in an orgy of violence, leaving the meek to inherit the world. The meek rebuild the world as a less Evil, but not necessarily Good, place. If Good wins...

So I hear there was a brawl after the Ohio State vs. Michigan football game earleir today. Michigan won the game, then ran out and tried to plant their school’s flag at the 50 yard line. Which wouldn’t have been a problem, except they were the visiting team, so they were planting their flag...

Re: "How much is Hasbro?" Nope. Still not going to care. A tweet about something doesn't make it real. If rich dude wants to rich dude, he can put his money where his mouth is. Until then, he's all empty swagger. I can get that from any random wannabe influencer with zero followers.

Just another progress report for now. I've spent much of the past week doing page layout work. I developed a rough plan for the placement of illustrations, maps, and tables before starting any other tasks on this project, but until recently, I didn’t know the final sizes of those page elements...

Hell is where every game uses the d4 System. Nothing but fistfuls of d4s any time you want to do anything. And so many d4s have fallen off the table and onto the floor, you have no choice but to stand on them. Barefoot.

I generally avoid going into threads just to tell people I don't care about the topic they're discussing. I do think it's worthwhile to remind the community that we don't have to engage with incendiary comments celebrities make about our hobby, but I'm not going to advocate that in a thread...

I'll do what I can to oppose harmful actions and policies. But I'm not going to waste any more time listening to rich dudes justifying or reveling in their own destructive behavior.

It depends. Is Wendy Doe's dog Internet famous?

It's nice to know you care about my post.

This post isn't a jab at folks who are discussing the news item alluded to in the thread title. I just wanted to comment on the story without posting in a thread that inadvertently publicizes the rich dude in question. If you're not familiar with the news item I'm referencing, it's essentially...

Trails and Tribulations The Forgotten Realms trail guide I’m writing includes overviews of hundreds of locations in Faerun, Kara-Tur, and Zakhara. Prior to the release of the 2024 edition of the Dungeon Master’s Guide, I wasn’t sure how much detail I wanted to include when describing these...

Sounds like a reasonable guess. I would add Bryn Shander as the hub for Iceland Dale.

Plot twist: Strahd is the OSR DM of Barovia, and he's about to go full grognard on "the kids these days."

Spoiler alert for anyone who hasn't seen the original Friday the 13th.

Same thing happened to me. I used to see most of the rules, but now they're gone. And here I thought I was finally going to get some use out of D&D Beyond. Oh well, back to pen and paper it is. I guess they didn't really want my eyeballs after all.
