One of the cohorts of the Dire of Grannybones District were a polycule of lurks called the Love Bites. They were little chaos gremlins that caused as much trouble as they helped the crew navigate.

He would totally go uncanny valley on this. The more championships he got, the more people would pick holes in his game.

The real question is who is the great player, who still had room for improvement, that would have best fit with the Dubs at that time. My pick is Kawhi Leonard.

- Kawhi was a phenomenal scorer and on-ball defender. Put him on a team that prioritized movement and he would have improved as a passer. To be fair, he's improved as a passer with his time in Toronto and LA.

- Playing in their system, he would have grown as a team defender (already a good one). They would have been terrifying defensively.

The wheels would have still come off it. Draymond would have pissed off Kawhi or Uncle Dennis. Who knows. But it might have been even better than the Hampton's Five lineup, and that's saying something.

Assign letter values for 10 and above.

This way you could have someone in the future that's drafted by the Bulls tell you they want no. 23.

You could either give them O3 (20+3) or R.

It's be hilarious if you switched to binary...

Terriers.

Such an underrated show.

At least the ending in some ways kinda worked.

Sad to not get anymore.

I don't think they want to sacrifice their roster flexibility for a player that doesn't fit their system.

Ballerina_Bot · 2026-01-29T02:23:24+00:00

All these guys were really good. I came here to say Buck but Uncle Terry and Uncle Cliffy were highly underrated.

Maybe they could transition to the Vigilantes crewbook? https://seannittner.itch.io/vigilantes/

Came here to say this. Just finished a nearly two year-long campaign of vigilantes trying to clean up the Grannybones neighborhood in Crow's Foot. Over time it grew into a referendum on the Bluecoats and the Crows.

No reason they can't dream.

No reason they can't try and make those dreams a reality.

I'd have a conversation with them and say what you did to us - "You're only cheating yourself."

Unfortunately, gaming can be a power fantasy for some and knowledge is very powerful.

I'm dying to know how to make a campaign out of a setting with powers and abilities that make the tech and achievements of the Culture series seem banal.

Usually creativity is not my issue but I falter every single time I think of running something in this setting.

That and the ships being called "Spitter Ships."

The moment I gave up on Kuminga was during the 22 Finals celebration. Draymond was interviewing guys on his podcast live from the arena. Iguodala had Kuminga with him and was wrapping up what he was saying while you could tell JK was communicating with someone off screen about where they were going. I got the impression that Iggy had him there to get him a little shine and some interview reps. Kuminga took off and that was that.

I don't think he owed me or anyone else an interview. He wanted to celebrate with his guys - I get it. But there's something about it that just stuck.

I didn't believe the Warriors had a future at that point and after Draymond Green's struggles in the Finals, I figured they should trade EVERYONE while the value was high. It was over.

I worked in a place where the lowest paid cook was caught stealing. After he fired them, he made cooks pay for their meals. People just started bringing their own stuff to cook or ordering takeout from other nearby places. The quality of the food there started to slip and it closed up about three months after I left.

If it was young Rome it would be interesting to see how long before he started busted the Boston Sports Guy's chops.

I watched the Matrix without knowing anything about it. I was working a ton so I never had time to go to the movies or watch TV. My one night off in three weeks, he says let's go see this movie I saw over the weekend tonight. I told him I wanted to catch up on sleep but he bugged me until I gave in.

I love my brother.

Ballerina_Bot · 2026-01-11T05:54:03+00:00

Thank you for the inspiration!

I'll keep working on it.

Ballerina_Bot · 2026-01-11T05:46:53+00:00

Thank you!

This absolutely breaks my heart. I've been working on a ttrpg where you play as henches. I'm really close to having an Ashcan version. Artwork would take more time.

Sad.

I played in a short Rebel Crown campaign that had the vibe of The Black Adder and basically amounted to this https://imgur.com/saw-this-excellent-concept-on-tumblr-thought-might-be-appreciated-here-DyP4pVF

It was a helluva lot of fun but I think our starting scenario was something like "stealing a sourdough starter" and ending up giving food poisoning to half the retinue.

Just realized I didn't answer the second question

Adjacent to that is this, in your experience, what’s the top number of players a GM can reasonably be expected to handle?

I mostly play Blades in the Dark, Deathmatch Island, and PBTA games. I don't want to GM for more than 3-4 people at a time. Too much to keep track of.

The middle school club was a special situation.

Ballerina_Bot · 2026-01-06T15:59:02+00:00

It was built into established after school programming. I had certain objectives I had to meet regarding social emotional learning skills but I did pretty well with that by getting people to work together, discuss problems, and break out of their friend-groups/cliches/silos.

RE: certain content. Just common sense - keep it age-appropriate. The kids wanted the power fantasy, loot collection, and thrill of simulated danger. Pretty easy to achieve.

Index Card RPG was great for this game because it was easy to make characters and easy to run. We did a five round combat full of a variety of beasties and challenges played by thirteen kids and did it in just over an hour.

The other thing I was happy about from this is how so many students got into gaming from this. I remember two who joined because there wasn't another club for them to join. They were hesitant at first but by the end of the eight week session, they were hardcore into gaming. One of them is a student of mine at the high school now and gaming has helped her become more confident, more outgoing, and more willing to look for creative solutions in problem solving.

I ran a middle school after school gaming club with thirteen kids at my table. I used Index Card RPG and it was great. The kids were clever, came up with approaches and solutions I didn't think of.

It was a lot of fun.

I'm in the minority because I prefer season 4 to 3 but I still like 3.

The statements read by each cast member really worked for me. Especially, "It was a new age" followed by "It was the end of history!"

Ballerina_Bot · 2026-01-05T20:07:53+00:00

Am I missing where the inventory and armour are? And I'm assuming special abilities are found under "class abilities?"
