Aaaaand enter the bolded font. That'll show 'em.

God grant me the confidence of someone on a message board posting made-up facts about screenwriters' comparative lack of literacy.

Bruh, you may disagree with the outcome of RAW, but when you have lots of people patiently explaining them to you and incorporating outside sources to help you understand and you're still relying on/bending the meaning of the word "simultaneous," you're the problem here.

This is a great point, and one I hadn't really considered, even as a fan of the B/X reaction roll. I'm really enjoying your posts!

I think 2e gets a bad rap, and I look forward to this thread! :)

Oof. This fella keeps digging that "BuT rEvErSe RaCisM" hole deeper and deeper.

That posters, properly seasoned and cooked, can be surprisingly delicious?

You really don't know what censorship means.

Big ups to @Maxperson for throwing me a bone to reply to and actually getting to talk about Bastions in the Bastion thread as opposed to...edition warring/fighters/warlords ad nauseum.

Yup! I replied elsewhere in the thread that I posted before I had a chance to get to that part (I am a creature of impulse). While I'd like the default to sync with their other assumptions, I also appreciate the hand-waviness of the latter part. I also would like to see more events and rooms...

I'm encouraged by what I'm seeing so far about Bastions. One nitpick I have is that I wish the turns were either a "work week" or a tenday to more fully align/coincide with the downtime activities in Xanathar's Guide.

TBF, I don't think I read some of the latter day ones, so I'm sure I'm missing some vital context.

(Those were great threads.)

That's my sense as well. It's...frustrating?...disappointing?...because I would love to talk about the differences of editions and/or their iterations, their affordances and constraints, etc. without it it devolving into a pissing contest. There are things I like about each, and each tends to...

I don't want to be Conspiracy Guy and/or assume intent, but I can't help but wonder if the current New Meta is an attempt to influence the direction of ONE/NEXT/5.5. By my count, it's less than half-a-dozen posters really going hard. My pattern-seeking monkey brain can't help but try to get at...

"Procrastination" is just a slur for "lateral productivity." There. I said it.
