Message: <blockquote data-quote="CleverNickName" data-source="post: 5205408" data-attributes="member: 50987">I think it was the deliberate randomness of the ingredients.  And the very specific nature of the ingredients, too...each ingredient had a descriptor that made it even more random:  a sinkhole is tough...an urban one is even tougher.Seriously.  When I saw the list of ingredients for that round, I was baffled...and so very thankful that I didn't have to compete in that round.   But the more I looked at it, the more fun I think I could have had with it.  I would have done some sort of fey-type adventure, where a forest city of griggs is threatened by a sinkhole.  And I would have lost, because like you said: Iron Sky's use of maple is brilliant.Let it be known throughout the realm: Iron Sky knows how to use his wood.I think this was a brilliant decision.  And not just because I like to run the occasional D20 Modern game. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f60e.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":cool:" title="Cool    :cool:"  data-smilie="6"data-shortname=":cool:" />  It is refreshing to read a story that doesn't involve the same party of adventurers, traveling through the same high-fantasy realm and fighting the same demons and undead.It's risky, but everyone loves a risk-taker.  It can certainly give you an edge in the Creativity department.</blockquote>
