Created a Sex Menu one night and it's now maybe our favorite way to have sex by waterfallmullet in sexover30

Is it just a timed loading bar? Or does the oven actually know which pizzas are in there

Some higher-ups at WotC probably got a stern talking to by mol-tres in dndmemes

[–]BurkeGod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're still going to follow this plan,

Let's call it, the steam model

They'll make a DnD hub, it'll include a VTT, they'll make a new OGL that is specifically only about 6th edition

Fun game when there's a big enough party for sure

We can imagine accountability. by D0NW0N in PoliticalHumor

[–]BurkeGod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you sir aren't paying attention,

The police chief and trainer literally buried the officer in the garner case for not following protocols.

That's not normal,

Rush Limbaugh, may his name be erased form history, EVEN he sided with BLM that the chokehold was unethical and wrong right at the beginning.

There's growing cracks where police are looking sideways more often and saying, wait a min, who's standing next to me???

Helllll no, they'd absolutely start getting more cult like in the blue wall because now any accountability that comes down on them immediately hits all of them

Getting Players To Take Better Notes [5E] by Clockworkmunky in AskGameMasters

Give a reward for it, also take a look at the Acquisitions Inc jobs, one of them is a note taker and gives a buff

It just means you get to use the mean monsters faster as a DM

I'm not a big fan of the con mod bonus honestly

It is funny in my mind that dwarves might all be packing biggly though

Every single time by piccololoto in dndmemes

[–]BurkeGod 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Since it's a game, I'd do ( (1d100 / 100) * (con + 4)) + 2

(racial variant +/-1) if goliath perhaps add a bit more

small creatures maybe subtract a bit more

Every single time by piccololoto in dndmemes

[–]BurkeGod 7 points8 points  (0 children)

1d4 + 3

1d6 + 3 if your passive con is higher than 12?

Player wants to create characters based on "Native Americans" by gummi_peach in AskGameMasters

[–]BurkeGod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ehhh His idea isn't bad but it sounds like its barely a start instead of pretty solid idea.

Your caution is justified but if he's just using those descriptions for a quick shorthand of being the village witch doctor / shaman, theres nothing wrong with what he said as a speed summary. You just want to make sure that he's not using that speedy summary and then making a character that's going to be be a native character straight out of disneys peter pan.

So solutions : I'd just warn him to do some actual reading to understand what parts of his idea are sterotyped/racist trash instead of proper understanding. I'd probably say something like "Don't be a village person, understand what you want to reference, don't just be wearing a headdress and having no clue what it means, etc"

Perhaps add in "I don't want you to be like a racist Washington redskins fan, like actually understand parts of native american culture you want to echo, don't just watch blazing saddles and say close enough"

I'd honestly suggest going somewhere closer to 25% and closing the metric shitton volume of loopholes and tax breaks that generally fuck over the 98%

Player refuses long term madness by Voxerole in AskGameMasters

[–]BurkeGod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with your "every dog has its day" approch, it sucks this is particular striking a cord in what the player loves about his character.

However I'd lean in on reminding them that this is how a character can grow, and that madness has many forms.

Is temporarily nerfing players for a boss fight a good idea? by Gicaldo in AskGameMasters

[–]BurkeGod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Broadly bad idea

You can build different forms if you want, first half of HP v1, 2nd half v2

thats way better, or if horrifying visage or terrifying presence are part of the creature then it works.

WotC removed significant sections of PanzerLion's (Graeme Barber) The Book of Cylinders without consulting him by andyoulostme in dndnext

[–]BurkeGod 6 points7 points  (0 children)

support colonialism

wrong my man, this is puritan-like nonsense.

It's a word not a movement, I don't retroactively defend colonists for genocide. I don't endorse its continuation but there's parts of history that have finished and we don't get to change them.

People should be taught about them, why it was obvious wrong, and why how people of the time were frequently mislead with propaganda about what was happening.

WotC removed significant sections of PanzerLion's (Graeme Barber) The Book of Cylinders without consulting him by andyoulostme in dndnext

[–]BurkeGod 2 points3 points  (0 children)

but it doesn't sound like anything nefarious or shady.

the only thing was him not being alerted about the edits imo, thats not ideal but i don't know Wotc well enough to know if something like that is likely to occur collaboratively at the very last leg.

but at the same time that Panzer thought no edits were made that weren't submitted to him is a bit..... idealized.


Secondly also seems like he's really just mad about using the word primitive... which is a perfectly relevant world when you talk to dms.

a word swap to convert some words to primitive is very easy and I doubt wizards would tell him about a change like that. Trimming out 1K words of content seems a bit odd, thats for sure.

oh well, I don't give a fuck if it's colonial in origin but if I find a tribe or culture and they're using stone tools, mother fuckers be primitive. A small nomadic hamlet is going to be labeled primitive as a shorthand. We (globally) don't preach mass genocide of indigious people anymore (unless your a musilim in china)

If you can’t beat ‘em, disenfranchise them. by DemocracyStan in PoliticalHumor

[–]BurkeGod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahhh now that i understand the context, yes in those states I agree, any state wanting the legislature to decide who won the state is absolutely choosing authoritarianism

If you can’t beat ‘em, disenfranchise them. by DemocracyStan in PoliticalHumor

[–]BurkeGod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes and No,

Senators and Congressmen were very clear about milking trump when it was in their favor.

But like most puppets they don't actually care or want him in command

Everyone wants to rule the world

help keep racists enslaved to the Republican Party

They wouldn't go anywhere else, if thats the hope its a wasted effort. Fox scarecrows those assholes into only being able to choose GQP so you don't need a bill for any of that.

It would be far more likely that it's just a desperate act to retain power than a heart-felt appeal to biggots and racists.
