Also, I fully acknowledge that I don't need to be a part of every discussion. Not every thread is written for me. Like, there is a thread right now with a title of "This Thing Is Awful" (I'm paraphrasing) and it has a ton of pages. Now I happen to enjoy the Awful Thing being discussed, so it...

That could be a sign that there wasn't actually that much real conversation in the thread to begin with--it might have been one of the dozens of threads where the same handful of people repeat the same arguments to each other, over and over again.

Yup, I just mentally give that person a yellow card. And if That Guy won't let up and it happens again, I imagine giving them a red card. And if it happens a third time, well, that's what the Ignore button is for. I eject them from the game.

Me: This is the sort of game I enjoy. That Guy: No you don't. Me: And this is what works for my group. That Guy: No it doesn't. Me: Here's a house-rule we like. That Guy: No, you actually don't. Me: I'm really excited about this project. That Guy: Stop lying to people, we all know...

And it's still going. And with that, I'm going to stop following and reporting. I'm always happy to see non-D&D games and projects doing so well.

We've used Foundry, FantasyGrounds, and Roll20 before; to varying degrees of success, during the pandemic lockdowns. They all have their strengths and weaknesses, but we ended up staying with Roll20 for 4 years and counting because it worked the best for us. One of the key strengths of Roll20...

It's not either-or. They should do both!

I actually preferred it that way, too...I liked that they would give me a strong concept, some lovely maps, and a couple dozen pages of flavor and crunch...and then they got out of my way and let me fill in the blanks. World-building is my favorite kind of "solo play" for RPGs. But I...

Here's a quick breakdown of the contest so far. Time remaining: you have 3 days, 16 hours, and 32 minutes to get your entry in. Number of entries: there are six entries so far Odds of winning: the odds of a new entry winning a prize would be 5-in-7, or 71%. Types of entries: four of the...

Yeah, I'm inclined to agree. And hey, A5E is a million-dollar winner in my book.

The Planeshift articles were some of my favorite WotC products. I've built entire campaigns off of those little PDFs.

I'm starting to understand your "but you have to draw the line somewhere" approach, @Parmandur and @Morrus . The Cypher crowdfunder is still in overtime, more than 13 hours after the official end of the project. It's currently at $987,826 from 5,395 backers and it's still going strong...

Geez, it's still going...$956,064 raised so far, and it's been in overtime for over 2-1/2 hours. They only need 11 more backers to reach the next stretch goal, and then I suspect it'll finally grind to a stop. EDIT: and now, only 7 more backers needed. EDIT: only 4 backers needed for the last...

I bet it will wind down once they reach that last stretch goal (they only need 69 more backers to make that happen). EDIT: (Nice.)

Woops, correct you are! (Honest mistake; I gave 2E a miss and went straight from BECM to 3E.)

Excellent work, @RealAlHazred ! I noticed you're using some old-school stats (THAC0 being the biggest tell, but also save vs. wands and time being measured in turns)...could this be a 1E D&D entry?
