Congratulations. Having high level characters and well rounded players does make everything smoother. If you’ve had those, I envy you. But not much.

I’ve managed a couple of games but I always made my plots to willfully accomodate chaos. I like to reward stupidity and recklessness. After a couple of disastrous events, the table tends to settle down and the mood tends to loosen up.

I’m fairly comfortable saying we have different approaches to playing and play directing. Which is good.

That is scripting.

Are we playing a campaign or renacting the Lord of the Rings?

Live for the chaos and mayhem. Expect it. Thrive from it. And tell the players that if their precious avatar dies, it’s on them, exclusively.

A campaign should be built around goals, capable of being moved around, delayed or put ahead of schedule as needed.

The players are walking in the campaign blind. It’s not their concern if a random action - that may be completely in line with their character - ampers, deviates or collapses the entire campaign.

Set wide goals, expect mayhem, have fun. Anything more than this is wishful thinking.

DnD is no more just dungeons and dragons. The moment it becomes an open world, the players roam around and do mischief.

If you want to play out your dream campaingn, write a book. It will never play as you expect or want. Unless you have the play fully scripted, with fixed roles and outcomes, it will derail.

I made a promise to myself that no matter what, I would love my children. It’s not my life, it is their life to live and find happiness and fullfillement. And if my children are happy, I am happy. Nothing more, nothing less.

Let them come. We’re already here and this space is very different from Reddit.

There is the probability that OP could be watching their own conception. Doesn’t get more instructional than that.

Portugal, €5/month, 100GB of data connection, 5000 call minutes. I’m supposed to pay one cent per sms but I have yet to be charged.

Yes. And I use only rugged phones.

I work in an environment where not having one would be very unwise but even before I’ve used screen protectors. It became standard practice from the moment the usable screen area became too large to not being worthy of protecting by my own means and efforts.

I’ve used those flexible anti scratch protectors, the hard, glass like, and the new generation gel films. I personally prefer the hard, supposedly tempered, screen protectors.

It is a learned skill to apply a screen film properly, I’ll admit, as I will admit I have ruined my share of it. I used to just buy it in bulk to allow for mistakes.

There are quite affordable vaccum machines that do wonders for those who are less apt at applying those films. Only work for hard glass or flexible; the gel ones have to be precision cut.

If you wear a lot of films, it may be a reasonable expense. Applying one protecting film can cost me anywhere between €8 to €20. The machines I’ve seen cost around €60.

Person of Interest and MacGuyver

Yup, old and ancient stuff.

Too many. I can count by the fingers of my left hand how many shows I watched to the end and I still have unused fingers.

Same risk with a driver, I’d guess.

Revamped the concept.

Isn’t that a japanese thing? With cafes where you go to talk with a person?

But back to the subject at hand.

I could see this as a way to get someone’s help to take some groceries home or some large object a single person can’t, as it is too akward to hold alone.

Or as a personal guide or to have company to go to/through somewhere someone does not feel comfortable.

I don’t say this much but that is actually a good idea, considering the amount of people that live very lonely and isolated lives. Maybe this can help some people to talk, enjoy another’s company, etc. Maybe. Everything else the effing internet and tech companies tried only managed to push people apart…

Thank you!

Wipeout was one of the few games that made me want to play it from the moment I first saw it.

The concept was novel, the graphics were beautiful, how all the ships moved and reacted (in game physics) seemed a level above.

Never played it, unfortunately.

If there was a port for PC, under linux, I’d do my best to get it, today.

You just gave me a headache.

Please explain the thought process that led to such a wondering.

People would have to kneel, in order to do so. It’s about humiliation and asserting dominance, in weak mentalities.

I’m running the same desktop for nearky 14 years and I have two laptops that are over 8. Still daily use.

What is that?
