If there is anything you can rely on it's my absolute sloth.

In my world that's called being a victim. Turning the other cheek just gets you slapped again. Tread on those who tread on you, and all that. That all being said it seems like a weird philosophical tangent, yeah?

I'm just saying I didn't make up the example as a strawman as you claimed. I'm far too lazy for that.

Yeah, I didn't make that up.

Yeah, that makes sense. I sometimes lose sight of the fact that some people have to pitch and run public games with strangers. That's about the only reason I can think of though. But I'm lazy, so if my choice was between being an unpaid game designer on top of being an unpaid GM? I choose...

I'm not disagreeing. I'm just saying that if you are less fortunate in life you shouldn't be made insolvent by performing a civic duty. It shouldn't be that way. I personally know people who've had to scramble to cover rent because they weren't getting paid for a couple weeks.

You say that now, but wait until you get selected for a three week trial and get paid in a ham sandwich and $20 a day. Most jobs aren't required to pay you while you're on jury duty. Some do, but they don't have to.

The thing that gets me about " I want to turn 5e into WFRP" or whatever isn't that it can't be done. It's just why? Just go play WFRP it's waayyyy less work on your part to just read that and use that thing made to do the grimdark thing.

Okay, but what if it's just really fun to say?

Oh yeah, nothing like having a level 12 thief with like a 30% chance to climb.

I think the real trick is to just get a motorcycle, you can lane split and in the bay area you can basically ride all year long as opposed to here, where you can ride for like six months out of the year.

I was once stuck on the 101 North for three hours in the bay area. I went 8 miles. I then swore to never complain about Chicago traffic again. You know, until I inevitably get shot in it.

Joke Answer: Your skill percentages in Rifts start low and remain so low throughout leveling that they may as well not exist anyway. Serious Answer: I'm pretty sure their genesis in Palladium was from AD&D thief skills which were percentile (and also suffered from a similar problem as above).

Ultimate hack for evading jury duty forever? Don't be an American citizen.

Yeah, you gotta wonder about the legal advice they received on this one. I'm pretty sure you can't use the parts of the OGL you like to serve your own purposes to create derivative content from and then say literally all the non traditionally understood product identity aspects (items, feats...

Yeah, not really sure what the thinking here is. I can see OBS getting bullied by a company the size of Hasbro, sure. But to extend that same option to any old hobby publisher? Come on man, I paid for these titles. Get your hands out of my pocket.

I'm still salty about this. I get old WotC removing PDFs from sale because they thought it would stop piracy or whatever (lol). But to remove them from my library after I paid for them was and is garbage. They are mine. I should have been able to redownload them into perpetuity. The icing on...

It looks like Palladium's business ops (or at least the public facing side of it) is being run by new people now. Though, Kevin is still there near as I can tell. As someone who had the good fortune of not backing the Robotech Tactics Kickstarter I am backing this. Purely because I have warm...

Pretty much the same for me. If we're talking about as a playable game there really isn't much of a reason to not play 2e. It's really just a cleaned up and slightly streamlined 1e. It's pretty much superior in all gameable aspects aside from the art and content being sanitized because of...

In addition to just being D&D with spreadsheets the man behind ACKS is, you know, somebody I don't wanna give any money to, just a general FYI to anybody out there.
