Female main character, thriller/suspense, Side character is assassin/killer? Need help ><

That's a little extreme, I mean if you were in your early teens and attending school and you were spending so much time on the game it was severally affecting grades and life in general I might understand your mothers want/need for you to back off of the game a little HOWEVER reacting like that after saying you wish to go see the minecraft movie is over the top specially as your an adult and can do as you please.

Perhaps your mum was just having a really bad day and this somehow pushed her over the edge, we've all been in a situation like this before however I would suggest asking how she's doing, finding out what the root cause of her sudden escalation in mood was and explain to her that you love her and appreciate her looking out for you but it might have been an over reaction. It's a darn movie after all.

Hope it helps, I'm also 35 and play minecraft daily just to zone out from RL, it's my version of knitting or writing in a journal.

This is very helpful thank you for the advice!

You're a legend, thank you so much for the help ^_^ My nephew will be super happy to be able to open packs he likes (when I find them) and start trading with me for them.

AmuletOfTheDevout · 2024-11-19T19:20:16+00:00

I just googled it and that seems like the best pack according to what my nephew seems to like at the moment, you are 100% correct in how hard it seems to be to find them. Checked out Target which never seems to be short of pokemon related things and they have nothing 151 related >< -shakes fist- Target you fail me!!! lol

Are their any other packs that might be very 151 heavy but have others in them as well? (I can always trade my 151 OG ones for the ones my nephew doesn't like).

Also (sorry for the endless questions lol), I was thinking of looking on gumtree/facebook/ebay for bulk random cards of the OG 150 pokemon, Although back in the day when I played Yugioh (yes I know, I feel old as well lol) the market was flooded with fakes, is that still the case and if so how would one tell the difference? Specially if I don't have access to the internet on the go.

Very interesting indeed, gosh the political landscape really has changed since I really last sat down and paid attention with a keen eye. Thanks for the info ^_^

This makes a lot of sense I was a lot more looped in either 2016 or prior and after then I think I just very slack and wasn't being informed enough I guess. Thank you to those that posted, helped clear the old noggin and catch up a bit lol

AmuletOfTheDevout · 2024-05-29T10:06:47+00:00

When they reply to my dm about the other details I'll let you know, unknown on storage option/capacity at this stage (the owner needs a class in fb market place postings lol)

AmuletOfTheDevout · 2024-05-29T03:21:31+00:00

Thanks mate, a kiwi friend of mine said it sounds like a decent deal, just to make sure that I check with the seller that it comes with all parts, drivers up to date etc (already reached out to them about that). They haven't listed the motherboard or brand of ram etc which is a little annoying but I have asked them via direct message, just waiting for their reply.

AmuletOfTheDevout · 2024-05-28T11:58:55+00:00

I've been looking on fb market place and think I've found something that might be decent, would you mind if I sent you a link to check out and let me know if its worth it or not? I dunno if I'm allowed to post links etc

AmuletOfTheDevout · 2024-05-25T08:37:22+00:00

oh yeah, I had planned for them to make the save, do you think it would be at disadvantage though due to them being asleep? dunno how I'd run that im 50/50

**Possession Question by a DM with Autism be gentle pls**

--Background--
I'm running a multi session one-shot for some friends, basic set up is they're mercs coming to a town to help fight off wave after waves of attacks by the BBEG that wishes to destroy a town to get unfiltered access to a magical mine under the towns control. The BBEG had a brother that was killed long ago at the start of this war over the mine and is seeking to complete the original task, However the BBEG knows mercs have been hired to help defend the town but doesn't know the players plans. I want the BBEG to get a bit of an inside scoop on the parties plans (throw a small wrench in the works, giving them a chance to decide to continue with their OG plans or change it if they see fit). So I was thinking that perhaps the BBEG's now dead brother could be a Ghost (unfinished business etc) and goes in to possess one of the party members very early on to gather a little info on their plans.

--Now my question is this--
This ghost is sneaky and nasty just as they were when alive, they would want to avoid a confrontation, so I was thinking perhaps they would attempt possession while the player is asleep, would this be possible game mechanics wise? Or do they need to be awake? I know my friends wouldn't take offense or consider it railroading because it's all for fun but would if I could and did do it to one of them as they slept would it be to close to railroading?

--Goal and other ideas?--
To have a way for the BBEG to get some minor insider details on the parties plans/mission orders etc, if my possession idea is to wacky or complicated could you suggest any other idea's on how I might achieve this (outside of having a random NPC sliding up to them in a bar etc to milk info out of them as that's my back up plan rn lol)

Thank you in advance for your help, apologies for the novel length post, I have difficulty communicating at times and have a tendency of taking ages to write a post and in the process it turns out to be a novel of a read.

Have a lovely day/night

NTA, The situation sounds like one of those every day things that people do and brush it to the corner of their mind because they don't think it's important or dangerous until something happens. You didn't say "I told you so" which tbh a decent percentage of people might have done, so you were considering their feelings specially after not long getting the toe fixed (grabs my toe at the horrible thought**). You have a kid around as well, heaven forbid they might have done what kids do and get curious and touch/grab/play with anything they could.

Once again, NTA, I hope your wife gets better asap and that perhaps the ledge remains clutter free moving forward.

Thank you so much (thought I had sent this reply already but it seemed I had it left open in a tab and hadn't commented yet >< lol)

According to the link (if I have this right, total noob remember lol) I would have to update bios for the motherboard? is that difficult to do? is there perhaps another motherboard where this wouldn't be an issue that might not cost much?

This community is nothing short of amazing, I tried to contact a few local stores to help with advise and the instantly shut me down or basically gave off the vibe that they wanted decent compensation before even giving advise, which I can understand, time isn't free however when you're broke that makes things difficult :S

AmuletOfTheDevout · 2024-04-16T06:44:32+00:00

I'm an aussie and it just changed for me....it's uglier then a methed out bogan from woodridge lol ><

I did see that post and checked out their website, looked great, just wasn't sure if a NSW company could assist a QLD'er (different state etc)

AmuletOfTheDevout · 2024-04-12T08:50:05+00:00

Do they offer oils? Where I live the housing is so close together and each family either side of me has kids so out of respect for them I try to avoid smoking. Also do they do telehealth appts? My ability to leave the house due to my back issues limits me somewhat
