The irony of the DoD’s whole kerfluffle with the Scouts is that the BSA expanded because it was dying. It had to attract girls in order to survive after multiple scandals emptied its coffers.

I’m starting to think the reason so many politicians are starting to advocate for a β€œno trade” stock market law is they know they can make money on β€œpredictive trading” easier.

As a pro game creator, I’ve …

* Been accused of ruining a game/world.
* Been called the n-word because I have no idea. Also the r-word.
* Had an impromptu acceptance speech mocked via live tweet.

The thing is? None of it begins to compare to the crap femme-presenting creators go through regularly.

Wrote this week’s NC2045 preview? Check. Wrote next week’s NC2045 preview? Check. Edited and laid out this month’s CP:R DLC? Check. Shoveled a path so my family can roll out the generator and turn it on if need be? Check. Feeling accomplished.

Game creation (or any commercial art form) is always a balance between the creators’ vision and feedback from the community.

That being said, there are fans who just aren’t worth listening to. For your mental health if nothing else.

One of the most interesting things about writing for a long-running game line comes in the form of memory quirks.

Some fans tend to mentally consolidate multiple sourcebooks and the core rulebook into a single memory’s

And often homebrew and table lore is misremembered as core rules and lore.

I feel like β€œNYT abandons news and goes into full-time word game app development” also works.

I suspect you’ve done stage work at some point. Ending a campaign is similar. Be prepared for ecstatic depression.

Finished both Coffee Talks. Looking forward to the third game in a few months. Beautifully crafted narrative. A gorgeous example of the cozy visual novel genre.

What is a rule your table has for dice? A common one seems to be β€œit doesn’t count if it rolls onto the floor” but others like β€œplay it as it lays.”

Random thought:

It is the responsibility of the player to think of why their character wants/needs to participate in the hijinks of a game.

It is the responsibility of the GM to help define the tone of the hijinks in advance so the player can do so - possibly with aid from the whole table.

It is always amazing how some random comment on the internet can send a mood crashing. Even when I know it shouldn’t.

This reminds me of just after 9-11. Everyone outside NYC was calling Guliani β€œAmerica’s mayor.”

Everyone in NYC used more … colorful language to describe him.
