    If You're "Permanently" Boycotting WotC, They're Not Going To Listen To You

    Already mentioned I'll be using ORC for what I formerly used OGL 1.0a, but I also use other licenses for other purposes.

    If You're "Permanently" Boycotting WotC, They're Not Going To Listen To You

    I've never permanently boycotted anything from anybody for any reason, ever and wouldn't do it. I've never made a decision that involved a major change in my life due to politics, belief systems, anger, nor high emotion. I use logic and critical thinking to every activity I do, and all my...

    D&D General What monster names are public domain?

    True, but is Illithid IP? I've been calling Illithid, illithid since 2e, I haven't called them mind flayers since 1e.

    D&D General DMing Hard Stop

    Actually, I've been DMing so long (decades) that the few times I've tried to play, I don't have it in me, to limit myself to a single character. I've spent too many years operating the entire opposition, the monsters, the NPCs, the stories, that managing a single character is so incredibly...

    D&D 5E (2024) One D&D Permanently Removes The Term 'Race'

    So I'm wrapping a Spelljammer 3PP supplement (custom ships, full deck plans and a Nebula Wildspace system), that I included a couple 'races', which I knew were being renamed. Not knowing what that is, I chose "beings" although "sapients" crossed my mind as another alternative...

    Crow Eating thread

    I hadn't been paying attention to Facebook, Youtube or ENWorld for the past couple weeks. Mom had a small stroke event, then she took a tumble and chipped her femur. So for the last month and a half, I've been putting in more hours of caregiving, all day long, then allowing myself 4 hours at the...

    D&D General Creativity?

    I'm not sure how to handle that as a DM, except I'm the over-the-top creative problem solver at my table, I always figure out the puzzle, the obstacle, thinking outside of the box, rather than the obvious that the DM is trying direct the party into seeing. I'm usually the DM, so I create...

    WotC Backs Down: Original OGL To Be Left Untouched; Whole 5E Rules Released as Creative Commons

    Well it doesn't seem to meet every need, but as a 3PP, I'll continue to publish using OGL 1.0a, perhaps ORC too, even currently doing a Community Content Agreement with the GM's Guild to play in all the waters as I can, and see what happens.

    How fast do you type your posts?

    Long ago, I was looking for graphic design work through a Temp Agency, and the agency I went normally specialized in administrative assistants, so they had a required typing test I had to take in the application process, and I discovered, I typed accurately about 70 wpm, though I can type as...

    D&D General How serious are your D&D games?

    Consider I'm primarily playing Starfinder, but my game is closer to Traveller with some fantastical elements. There might be more levity, if the basic setting was less grimdark, which tends to engage more serious play. Clever quips are always present, but since the setting isn't wahoo, the game...

    RPG Design: How do you build a new world?

    Consider I'm in the middle of building a Wildspace system for Spelljammer supplement I will be publishing on the DM's Guild, that I'm wrapping up now. I decided I wanted 2 star systems with overlapping outer orbits, and inside a massive nebula. Last year, I published The Planet Builder...

    D&D 5E (2014) Buying the Farm - Claiming the Ruin - Occupying the Dungeon

    I've seen a tongue-in-cheek dungeon as a business operated by intelligent monsters (beholder, mind flayers and drow), where a young goblin was the main character in a solo adventure. The guy running that game made a cartoon story of the adventure. They invested various treasures and magic items...

    Your baby: your own setting

    You could argue that my Kaidan setting of Japanese Horror (PFRPG), my first published setting which was developed in 15 publications between 2010 and 2017, involving a Rite Publishing inhouse patronage system, a Kickstarter, multiple authors, editors, game designers, and illustrators. It was...

    Why We Should Work With WotC

    Not certain, except, since I already have a relationship with DrivethruRPG, and the DM's Guild is operating now, and my near-released product is being licensed as One D&D at DrivethruRPG. I could release it tomorrow if it were done under that license, so I don't know that it isn't currently...

    D&D 5E (2024) What happens if One DnD fails?

    I'm only interested in One D&D as third party, what 1st party does isn't really my concern, as long as it doesn't overly impact me.

    Why We Should Work With WotC

    True. I always forget MtG, since I haven't played that in 5 years, I don't even think about it anymore...

    Why We Should Work With WotC

    Yes, currently Hasbro is profitable only because of WotC, and WotC is profitable because of 3PP, so you could argue that 3PP is what is keeping Hasbro alive...

    Why We Should Work With WotC

    Not that I'm necessarily fixing the Spelljammer setting problem, since I'm publishing under One D&D at the DM's Guild and among their publishing guidelines is not creating full settings. But I am creating one Wildspace system, which is allowed content. Because I also publish 3PP for Starfinder...
