I think he must have... Yes. Constitutional Turtles.

Because you responded to my question about the relevance of the constitution with something about case law when neither of those things are relevant to the discussion at hand.

Those legal cases have nothing at all to do with what we're talking about here (this has already been covered in the thread. No one is talking about the government taking action against the person who made these comments. It is about the gaming community distancing itself from the person who...

What has the constitution got to do with anything?

1. The deliberate extinctification of a species is very difficult without global cooperation, which there isn't, at least partly due to the existence of evil creatures. 2. Too much competition. I've found games to be much more entertaining when the player characters don't get along that well...

In most of the campaigns that I run, the general populace understands that "adventurers" are an unpredictable, dangerous, and unhinged lot. So, anyone who shows up amongst a group of adventurers, while probably not evil, in the strictest sense, are going to cause a lot of trouble, regardless of...

Almost everything in the campaigns that I run tends to happen in (or over, or under) a city. More or less rarely, (depending on the campaign) that city is inhabited only by the ghosts or guardians of a long-lost civilization.

I have used various systems of xp rewards, quest rewards, time-based rewards, and so on. In my current campaign, I'm doing session-based advancement... In a d20 game that is not D&D 5e. We did four sessions at level one, then six sessions at level 2. We are currently five sessions into the...

Nah... It'll put hair on your chest. ... or burn it off. I can never tell which it is.

I made the mistake of reading Man In The Iron Mask before the other D'Artagnan Romances. It was so unlike what I expected that it almost put me off Dumas completely.

I participated in several short-lived weekly campaigns before I came to the conclusion that D&D 5e wasn't for me. So... maybe 50? (voted 40-49)

If "play Dark Souls III" is a skill, then yes, with skill checks.

I just finished reading Alexandre Dumas's The Count of Monte Cristo. I am about to start Agatha Christie's Poirot Investigates.

Which is a point that is apparently not acceptable to some segment of the modern audience. So it is not unreasonable that the producers may want to retract the material while they consider how to handle that.

Right, Take 10 was primarily restricted by situations, rather than by skill. The general rule there was, "if someone is trying to kill you, you can't take 10." Dark Souls III

And this quickly evolves into SaaS (Sidearms as a Service), where you pay a monthly subscription for your weapons, rather than owning them outright. This is much more convenient for the average user, as they can get the latest patches and upgrades as they become available.

This was my experience also, for much of my early involvement in the gaming hobby, but became less true as my peers and I became adults with more personal autonomy and disposable income.

All games are humanocentric, as all of the players are human. If I am running a game, and another player wants to play creature type X, I find a way to make that happen. The game belongs to all of the players, not just the referee.

Already mentioned in that thread were the damage save / damage condition method used in Mutants and Masterminds (and also Blue Rose and True20, two other games by the same publisher as M&M). The way that works is that each attack has a Rank, which determines the Save DC for the Damage Save...

Damage Threshold was the same as your Fortitude Defense (equivalent to a passive Fort Save, basically) plus a few modifiers. The Damage Threshold and Condition Track from Star Wars Saga edition has a few flaws, but definitely was an interesting addition to straight hit point attrition.
