D&D General Sandbox and/or/vs Linear campaigns

Wait, you literally set aside time at the weekend to run an appeals court for players to contest your rulings?

Oyez oyez oyez Sunday court is in session! The bench shall now hear The State Vs. Orko the Magnificent.

Sir, my client believes that he should’ve at least gotten disadvantage in the aforementioned case rather than an outright denial of the attempt to jump on the dragon’s tail.

That's all I do. 'Yes Mr Player sir, thank you, I'll be quiet now'. They'd hit me otherwise.

Are you saying that's not typical?

So you’re saying that in Soviet’s sandbox, player DMs you?

I became convinced, several pages ago, that the whole playstyle is some internal construction that exists wholly in his head. The Supreme Court of Weekend TTRPG Justice that convenes each Sunday but has a light caseload does nothing but strengthen my convictions, to coin a phrase.

I sometimes make a ruling during a game to keep things going and am more than willing to discuss in person or by text my decision after the game. But setting aside a specific time? Nope.

I understand that you are trying to inject levity, but the problem is that Bloodtide is perfectly serious with these claims.

We will table things for the game but we talk via group chat later if needed.

Yes, but there probably is no point in taking it seriously.

Dude, no he isn't, this is his schtick

How about "My character will stay in town and run his potion shop while my other character joins the party for this adventure."

I really like the "more than one PC" culture.

I really like the "more than one PC" culture.

Though it still increases the attention you need to give to one player, at least to some degree.
