I never tried hex editing save files, but lots of the first programs I ever wrote drew random lines in random directions on the screen and the colors were limited to earth and water colors so I could generate cool maps. Very much inspired by D&D. This back in the late 80’s or early 90’s.

Interestingly, I don’t play enough these days to say I get to work on management skills. For me it’s primarily been empathy and vocabulary. Kind of cool that everyone can get such different things from the same hobby.

Boy that sounds familiar. The AD&D DMG is filled with words that aren’t really used anywhere. I learned e.g. and i.e. by finally looking them up after seeing them so often!

Well I’ll be- I haven’t seen that before. I don’t know how I feel about learning two things in one day!

I’m reading Turn of Fortune’s Wheel. There is a table of various contests the PCs can compete in while in the gate town. One contest was Flyting. When I saw that, I thought it was a typo, but I looked it up, and nope- not a typo! I learned a new word! What words have you learned from D&D? Or...

can you draw me a map of a castle floor plan on a grid of squares like would be used for D&D

I asked it to make me a castle map like you would use in D&D pretty cool!

I remember #7! I loved that idea, though never played it: https://adventurelookup.com/adventures/jacobs-well

Tragically, I don’t have one! I never had any of the published adventures! I had a bunch of the setting materials but no actual adventures. Now as an adult, I have lots of the planescape 2e setting material, but still never got an adventure. But I feel like both settings have you lots of ideas...

Ok that makes sense. I’m one of the people who loves 2E spelljammer and I couldn’t really get past the way they did 5e version. I was so sad at the lack of ship based combat rules/tactics and the missed opportunity to have all sorts of fun random tables for designing planetary systems, and heck...

I’ve seen so much bad feelings about Spelljammer 5E that I’m assuming you’re being sarcastic? But I’m just not sure. Is LoX considered a good spelljammer adventure?

I know this is super minor, but what does TOS stand for? I see you're talking about what I'd call "Table of Contents", but not sure what TOS means.

You could do something about he's not restrained by a spider's web attack. Ducks walk on webbed feet all the time.

Now it’s just going to be a reminder of my hubris. 😭

Arg! Hoisted by my own petard!

What I do is go to enworld.com- that’s the easiest spot to remember!

I mostly don't pay attention anymore to additions to things I love. I love the lord of the rings, but didn't bother with rings of power. I love the dune books, but don't bother with anything written by his son. I'm fine with them existing and other people enjoying them, but I found they were...
