How does it work for a theory post on theory posting and are you ready for the ramifications?

I often tell players that RP is welcome but nothing that doesnโ€™t further the plot. Work out plans, clear disagreements, try to learn something from each other, etc. On a few occasions Iโ€™ll ask โ€œIs this going somewhere?โ€ and luckily I have never had a player take that as me being bitchy ๐Ÿ˜…

Great job on her dress. Dunno why that stood out to me ยฏ\_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ.

There is still one huge glaring problem with this, I donโ€™t have a group that wants to play Oath ๐Ÿ˜ญ.

did some feedback for someone in a discord server who's learning art and thought i'd post it here too, might have some useful tidbits :)

The MBL FAQ was really needed since after the Quins Quest vid the discord server was getting flooded with repeated questions. It was getting a little annoying ๐Ÿคฃ

The Spark Tables generally use 2d12, a great way to flesh out scenes!!

Brian wrote about a way to visually indicating the desired tempo of scenes. A quick read! Worth your time!

I wonder if something more visual is what I need instead. ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”

On way Iโ€™ve tried to solve this is by asking players to be responsible for moving the scene forward. But I find that for many players (most!) this doesnโ€™t come naturally.

I have struggled with pacing since I generally want to move to a resolution and I have often gotten feedback that I rushed once or twice when a player wished to take some more time.

$4.6 mill in 2024 (excl dice), $2.6 mill in 2026, with Crows set to lauch later in the year.

โ€œRin had the brilliant idea that the doors are randomly opening and closing due to emotional turmoilโ€

This cracked me up. I love players that understand the weirdness of the setting so well!

12.02.2026 06:25 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 2    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

I do something similar at my open table. I let players know that it might make sense to use the passion and ability to inform personality, but at the end of the day they are mythical knights and if they wanna keep it to that, then thatโ€™s fine.

Kinda annoying how he misses the point of a myth hex and how myths like The Wall work.

Both are based on Into the Odd. So 3 abilities, roll under saves, combatโ€ฆ a lotta similarities!

Seeing the fog on the map disappear over time is _super_ satisfying!

I find the standard red to be a bit cartoonish, so this hue of blue really works for me!

It might not look like it, but this is peak gun wielding technique. Banned at most competitive events for being too powerful.
