    Your most pointless TV/movie/book nitpicks

    Yeah history aside the first half the season was rough. Once the political intrigue kicks in was not bad if inaccurate.

    Olympics 2026 Thread

    Well, im from the frozen north near neighbor of Canada. We got lots of ice half the year here and not much to do. So, its become a favorite winter pastime. I think I like it because it feels more like a skill game than athleticism, so I like watching the competition.

    What Geek Media Do You Refuse To Partake In?

    I read a lot of Ghost Rider and Punisher in the late 80's early 90's. When I went to the books and games stores locally, I only had so much to spend. I could get the latest x-men and/or Spider man or I could get the bargain packs that had like 6-12 copies of older lesser known sellers. More bang...

    Kickstarter Traveller 5e powered by the DnD SRD in 2026 crowdfunding

    I am curious about using the D20. Teavellers flat progression makes 2D6 work throughout the game. Will they try to make the D20 work in a flat progression or will they make Traveller into like a level 1-10 game like they did with Carbon 2185?

    What is "railroading" to you (as a player)?

    Yes, they are using it as a "less good way to play that some people like for some reason" and ignoring folks who find it objectionable. Then, tossing out the classic "too many definitions to mean anything". Its rehtorical device to control the concept.

    What is "railroading" to you (as a player)?

    Which I do. In fact ive never heard anyone use railroad in any other way but pejoratively. You cant say its a simple playstye when railroading has clearly been linked with a bad way to play for all of its history.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    That is a hefty internet bill! For a long time I had internet and basic cable TV for 120 U.S. a month. Then, they started jacking the price; 140, 160, 180, 200... So, they forced me to cut the cable and go just internet. 80 bucks a month. I started some streaming services and combined im...

    What is "railroading" to you (as a player)?

    Yeah thats a lot of years to know somebody. Im curious what exactly is triggering the disappointment? Thats always hard to determine. Some folks are very sensitive to GM prep and set up to the point I dont even know how their games work. The buy in is part trust and part preference. Its a...
