Oh whey oh.

Generally I would recommend acknowledging your own necromancy when you knowingly do it, to preempt the snarky comments of people like me (often a good opportunity to explain why you thought the thread deserves revival as well). I'm mostly pro-necromancy, I just find it funny when someone...

That sketch was actually part of my teacher training program. While I messed up names plenty of times the one time I got slightly antagonistic with a kid over their name, such that I had flashbacks to that sketch, was when I had a kid whose given name was, evidently "DJ", but it didn't appear...

As a substitute teacher I always assumed creative name spellings primarily existed because people hated substitute teachers and wanted to make their jobs harder. They certainly don't make the kids lives any easier.

I would argue that this really comes down to WotC wanting to apply a general rule but being understandably squeemish about putting a money price on freshly collected vile of blood. I wouldn't allow the spell without blood collecting (trivial on about half of an adventurer's workdays, a serious...

I'm pretty sure they were cast to suit the actress playing their daughter, who was cast in a prior season, and that overbearing in-laws are a cultural universal. Which is not to say you're wrong, or that specific stereotypes don't, no doubt, exist in some people's minds, just to say that the...

I mean, it says they are "banished" to their home plane. I would interpret "banished" as also functioning like a condition, specifically a pseudo-condition of not being able to go to the plane they are banished from (per the normal meaning of being "banished" from a place) for the duration of...

My only feeling towards Threads, is that I've been making an on and off joke for about five years now when bombarded with someone's array of social media presences or parodying such, of offering to let people "thread me on Thimble" (sometimes stylized "thmble"), and this eventual existence of a...

My solution is to make a list for Bards. Or to just stick with 5e. I haven't really decided yet.

Gross or net? Money for whom? In what timeframe? Tesla's stock is worth a lot, is this a sign that HAT should have been an electric car rather than a movie?

I would go beyond that to say that both recipes and DM facing materials are often not very well written for actually directly implementing, and rely more on the skill and experience of the person using them to know how to get a useful result from them than on clear communication.

To my mind the main places DMing is like cooking (particularly cooking for other people) are: A) You have to remember the allergies and dietary restrictions of the people you are preparing for. This need not mean that every dish conforms to the needs and preferences of everyone, but the meal as...

Yeah, I would guess that the interviewees (who weren't the full CR cast members, which were all the initial people interviewed) were probably not meaningfully consulted given that all of the interviews were removed, and it is a bummer for some of them no doubt. I mean, I get the impression that...

I continue to be unimpressed with the three big, dumb lists system, and every additional list added just makes the combined list system make less sense. Unless they are actually going to add classes later on in this iteration, I think every class should just have a class spell list as per the...

I do know that, or at least I know that that is the claim that has been made. Too much money has changed hands to trust anyone's claims about what else they liked about the project. And I neither like it nor hate the show produced. I'm just indifferent enough to it to have no particular...

My experience of the experiment in hack adaptation that was Wheel of Time is one of the principal reasons I haven't watched Rings of Power. I actually kind of enjoyed the series, and then I read the first book and realized that all the weak points of the series were places where the people...

Prequel? Make Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator into a movie already, or (and I know this is anathema to Hollywood) just make something original. We don't need adaptations of adaptations wherever a little nostalgia can be scrounged up.

12,500 seats in its current configuration.

Probably, though it may also have to do with Orion being in basically all their content at the time he left, being an integral part of the first however many episodes of their flagship content to this day, and possibly that Campaign 1 is to some degree Geek and Sundry's content. It also may have...

To my mind Tolkien presents three major problems for an RPG adaptation: 1. It is a lore that many people respect and sort of know, but few have the patience to master the extreme complexity of. This makes it sort of the perfect storm of difficult to manage on the world-building front. There are...
