    D&D General A Rant: DMing is not hard.

    At one extreme there is the kind of hard where I could probably do it if after getting brief instructions if the alternative was starving or being killed if I didn't successfully do it, but otherwise nah I can't imagine marshalling the motivation. At the other end there is the kind of hard...

    D&D General A Rant: DMing is not hard.

    Taking a tangent... Is consuming a wide variety of genres of movies/tv/books/comics also very helpful? Are there some genres that would be not helpful at all? Would the writing styles and interactions in them still be useful in them regardless of the genre? How about activities like writing...

    Virtual Happy Hour (Brews & Spirits, Pics & Reviews)

    Edmund's Oast Sour Lemon Lime was pretty nice. (So Lime and Lemon+Lime on the good list, Orange and just Lemon not so far).

    D&D General A Rant: DMing is not hard.

    Depends on if I want the senior member of our household to kill me or not? Our games typically last, say, a year to three years, and end for a variety of reasons (sometimes after much less than a year). And then the question comes up of what to do next. We typically have the prospective...

    D&D General A Rant: DMing is not hard.

    If several DMs have an idea for the next campaign to try, how do they decide on that? (Ours kind of informally votes I guess, with probably bonus points to someone who hasn't gotten to run in a while - but if it isn't what anyone else is interested in, they won't get bumped above others). Is...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I don't think my hop intake is anywhere close to getting me to a shift... Stouts (many kinds, not usually Barrel Aged or Nitro), Porters, Hefe/Dunkel Weiss, and a few other random things [Pumpkin Ales, Lime Sours] are my usual, but I can enjoy a Modelo too.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I mean, if you like pine cone wrapped in barbed wire and dipped in grapefruit juice then embrace it! Some people like <insert something to get an edition war going> in ttRPGs, why not the same in beer? But seriously, I've worked hard to pick good ones around the edge with my dad when I want...

    D&D General A Rant: DMing is not hard.

    If the AI is good enough to be a DM, should it be more than good enough to be a player? (Card games online have had... Nah, I can't do it. No AI in RPG playing for me.
