I don't want to be a gloomy person! But I regularly shut the doors leading out because of strict criteria I hold onto. The consequential loneliness and self-hatred reached a peak last night. I can't share the contents, but I feel the need to shout into the void anyway.

I think more options and variety is the answer. Like, the board game post was an attempt at that. I haven't had the time to do it again. Hopefully we can pull in more people before I have to crash into bed

I look forward to these a little too much, is the issue. When we have to skip or it feels like a session wasn't great, it really hits me for a while.

Also realizing that, because my free time is so limited, I'm putting all of my social eggs into a few ttrpg baskets. Since I run one of those games, I feel like the fun starts and ends with me. When I can't prep, I get really stressed. Maybe that's not a healthy mindset.

A tournament arc is a cool sidequest for my battle network campaign, but designing interesting 1v1 fights is a challenge. Most of my ideas seem annoying to play against, lol. InvisibleMan sends his regards

cute!

my group usually runs because I don't care if I'm down a player (it's usually the same guy who doesn't show up)

Basically? I need a new group, I think. I'm already running one game, so hosting a second one isn't good for my fragile psyche. I need to prod people and see if someone's in need of a player.

Taking psychic damage from how often the same TTRPG group cancels. I hardly do any socializing because of kids, so having one of the blocks routinely taken away is driving me mad

>Get mad that my inputs keep getting eaten

>Get mad at ninjas and annoying spinning guys zoning me out

>Quit Mega Man 3 and start playing Street Fighter

fighting with my wife everyday is eating me alive. And I can't even drive off a hill because my son needs me. We're both just so tired and fed up with being broke

Self improvement is too hard, bro. I can't even afford my cost of living. Now I'm supposed to afford to wrangle my damn Id?

If anyone has an idea for how to approach this, let me know! Or if you've seen any good systems for this idea, I'd love to read them!

It is tempting to use an OSR style system for the online game, then a separate one for the offline characters. That sounds like too much on the players to remember, though.

Brainstorming my next campaign for whenever NetBattlers is finished. That probably won't be for a while, so I have time to shop for a good system. I want to run a game about MMO players, both in/outside the game. The main systems I've found a good fit are .dungeon//remastered and Infinity's Edge.

Cool direct. Anyway, back to only paying for indie games

For real though

I am very thankful for the people who keep in contact with me after all these years. Through forums, Skype, IRC, mumble, discord, etc., we've had some way to communicate.

Family demands a lot, and will continue to do so for both of us. Oftentimes, on nights I have tabletop games, I'll push through just to keep that connection going. It's worth it, but everdraining until the burnout happens. I pushed the BN game I run to be bimonthly to ease that.

Me when a friend apologizes for picking a top tier:

"Sorry for what? My daddy taught me not to be afraid of our picks, especially when they're such good practice and all."

Even when I had infinite time, I would feel this way. Perhaps the issue is with me. Perhaps social fulfilment is not in the cards.

Feeling adrift from my various friend groups. Like my interests have shifted and I'm not into what they are. Makes it feel like I'm not a good fit. Pursuing new horizons has been unfruitful so far. But I've never been good at that kind of thing, anyways.

guess I gotta play this guy, now. #WugtrioWednesday
