    What are you reading in 2025?

    Been keeping my eyes open for Vol 2 of the Upson Tey series. I liked vol 1 enough to read vol 2. However, I think I'm going to focus on catching up on Elizabeth George's Lynley/Havers books, I stopped at vol 9. Also would like to read most recent (2023) Deborah Crombie. All of which to say...

    Time travel doesn't exist because time travel wiped out the timelines where it did

    Well, Einstein said it's all relative (paraphrase). If you are walking across my field of view, you are walking to the left (or right). So in relation to me, you are walking left-right; not forward back.

    D&D 5E (2024) Ditching the Treasure Treadmill

    Equipment degradation. Every item starts with a d12 as it's quality die. After every encounter, for every piece of equipment used rolled, roll the equipment's quality die. If it's a 1, it degrades down to a d10, or a d8, or a d6, or a d4. If you roll a 1 on your d4 quality die, the item is no...

    What Are Your Favourite Movie Quotes?

    Speaking of Monty Python, one of my favorite movies is Brazil. (Directed by Terry Gilliam) And it has so many good quotes, a couple to share: "My complication had a little complication" "I'm a bit of a stickler for the paperwork" And not speaking of the Monkees, another favorite movie is Repo...

    Natural 20/1 Crit fails and Crit successes, How do you handle them?

    While I used to play in d20 rolling games that a 1 was auto-fail; I've pulled back on that.
