Im sure all will be answered on the 13th.

Achilles: So, guess what my new job is?

Zeno: Let me guess .... "You want fries with that?"

Achilles: Ha ha. No! I'm in charge of Hasbro's licensing!

Zeno: Oh ... oh.... oh no Achilles. I've heard ... I've heard things ....

Achilles: I know, right! Leverage! Monetize! Synergy! Return on Investment! I know words. I know the best words!

Zeno: Uh ... Achilles ... you might want to know that there's been a little, um, kerfuffle over things ....

Achilles: Oh, that? Don't worry. I'm going to clear it all up with a big announcement. I have just the day to do it, too!

Zeno: When?

Achilles: January 13th.

Zeno: You're going to make your announcement on the 13th .... Friday the 13th?

Achilles: YEAH BUD! I got this thing down!

It's been 33 years, and we've not received further instructions from Technotronic.

And so I think, with deep regret, it's time to deflate the jam.

It's so weird when people who clearly don't engage with the OSR in any way at all make snarky comments about the OSR. Yes, there's absolutely a lot of room for criticism in that space, of that space, and a lot of stuff people in that scene need to address. But a lack of creativity and innovation is absolutely not one of their problems.

It's true, though -- OSR writers lack creativity! They're all about edginess! Contrast that to my completely original creation, Melbinster the Magician, who wanders the Misbegotten Realms, and you can see what true creativity is!

What about my totally original hero.

Okay, get this:

He's like a renegade, really goes against the grain. His whole society is evil, but he wants to be good...What? Elric? No, not Elric...
Anyway, he's like, really cool, has an internal, tortured monologue always resenting his native culture but wanting to be a part of it. But! He also has TWO totally rad swords and a black panther! This dude rules!

"Why are you spending so much effort doing this thing that probably won't change anything?" is apparently most effective when posted multiple times?

The investment people have in other people not changing things for the better always amazes me. What a terrible way to live one's life.
