I think prior posts are right that it depends a lot on the game involved. In Call of Cthulhu, I generally consider a hit to involve contact since the hit points ablated are so few, based on physical stats, and don't change as an investigator gains in skill and experience. In D&D or Star Wars...

Same here.

Is it time to dump Disney+ and Hulu now? Maybe...

A very serious hypothesis. It's helped by the fact that violence peaked and dropped off pretty much everywhere in the US at the same time, which suggests a wide-spread, even airborne, environmental factor that was phasing out of the environment about 20ish years before the decline. And that fits...

I think Schindler's List would fit the definition of a hit as far as matching criteria - drawing a lot of business/ticket sales. But I think you're right in that people wouldn't normally call it a hit - doing so would be awkward and wouldn't match the unusual gravity of the subject matter. I...

Ooooo, schadenfreude! My favorite!

Sometimes it's clear when someone really doesn't exist in the same universe as I do.

Is it just me or has this taken, like, FOREVER?

Well, there's another RPG system that I'm going to avoid touching with a 10 foot pole.

Same here, I assume it's some ad that's doing it when it gets served up.

Wow. That's some... some fiction right there. I always wonder at how someone can read the same things I read and come away with such different information.

I'm not sure I'd characterize interactions with a certain poster as red flags, but they sure are weird flags. Weird enough for me to have wondered if they were a chat bot at one point.

Wait... did you dis the McRib?!?

You could totally do them in It Came from the Late, Late Show.

Conspiracy theorist, homophobe, racist, misogynist, Christian Nationalist, and all-around right-wing provocateur Charlie Kirk was assassinated today on a Utah campus. https://www.cnn.com/us/live-news/charlie-kirk-shot-utah-09-10-25

Design philosophy?!? I'm pretty sure there was no prior design philosophy for this kind of thing - just accretions of subsystems. So, I guess you could chalk up the difference to divergent evolution - the secret door rules evolved in one way first (based on d6 rolls). Then the thief, a class...

Skull and Shackles AP for Pathfinder1. We had a lot of fun with it. The setting is pretty crowded with places to go and people to see, bases and quirks to investigate, and a ton of piratey tropes. There's a lot of potential to work with from mutiny, to working with a crew, conspiring against...

I don't think it's a question of it "not making sense" as much as there's a floor given to a clumsy PC's misery. AC worse than 10 is reserved for curses, by the 1e rule. And the dragons might not be considered cheaters if you're strict about the text about magic armors. ACs can't be made better...
