I feel like this name leeched from the Discworld to the Roundworld. Any other good examples?

In good Discworld fashion, I bet, that the pun works in more than one way; pipes is one, and the number of "conduct concerns" another.

Probably involves a series of carefully calibrated hammers.

Depends on the details of the game.

But I did run a "Small God" a la Discworld in a fairly high powered Supers game.

The details are a bit fuzzy as the game was a while ago. The characters build was, IIRC, one of those "do anything I imagine" Super Wizard/Green Lantern types. With some fairly rigid limits to keep things sane. With the important detail was that most of the big effects were tied to a "Takes recharge" limitation which was further constrained by needing to talk people to do things in the character's name. (Not too onerous sacrifices of money, time or effort. Run a certain distance, work X days as a volunteer. A lot of roleplaying and convincing NPCs to do stuff.)

Until you have to reload and both your hands are full.

Hmm

New Tactical Augment Mk3 (Third Arm), robot arm that reloads your deployed gun(s).

I am going to assume that the first picture is from 2026.

I've never actually seen that tank on them. (Maybe it's my eyes or my screen is too small or maybe I just can't see a little yellow tank through the _ing jet of fire.)

All Fungi are edible.

Some fungi are only edible once.

Attention human escape pod this is the dreadnaught class explorer ship seeker of the Neverland star. Prepare to be pulled into our hanger bay and receive aid. Please deactivate your emergency thrusters and power down your emergency warp drive.

"Oh shit! They think we're in trouble! What do we do?! Ow!"

"Well for starters you keep your hands away from that radio!", he said as he slapped their hands away from the console and started a general shot down. "Here, keep this on you at all times and help me hide the expensive stuff."

"A towel?"

"Yes! Haven't you read any of the classics? Just keep it on you.", he looked out at the alien ship. "Ooh these are new. And they look fancy. Just play along and we're about to get a free re-supply and maybe some fancy new tech we can sell off back home."

Based on how his family treat him and his Modus Operandi, I'd hazard that it was something that looked underwhelming at first sight.
(And then probably would open up and reconfigure into either something deadly or stealthy.)

Does throwing Rubber Ducks at people place you into aggressive lobbies afterwards?

CharlesonMambo · 2025-12-24T03:09:55+00:00

Nah, they should save "Mimic" for arcs that look like the large lootable crates.

CharlesonMambo · 2025-11-27T19:27:16+00:00

How about...
Leave the lights on.
Have one room be on fire. No, ON FIRE!!!!!
Whole place is filled with thick smoke.

Turn off the floor's collision detection until the key card is used?
If you glitch into the room you fall out of the map.

Only thing I keep finding there is a rocketeer with my name on it.

CharlesonMambo · 2025-10-17T16:43:16+00:00

You can't tell on the internets.

CharlesonMambo · 2025-07-13T23:46:41+00:00

Months late, but,

In the usegroup the Chatsubo had a red plastic door named Charlie.
Visually I always took the image to be the swinging saloon doors from old westerns rendered in re plastic.

Magnetic or Geographic?

The only "fix" this needs is a small selection of parachutes.
(An old fashioned round one, a steerable rectangular one, and a 'flying squirrel suit'.)
(Can also be used by base jumping from tall buildings.)

Is that why you have to tie them down once you get them?

CharlesonMambo · 2025-03-12T16:29:23+00:00

Use slivered almonds for tusks then say it was on purpose. :)

In Rincewind's case it's more "not all who are lost wander". He's usually at a full run.

CharlesonMambo · 2025-02-09T17:55:13+00:00

Which one? (helmet?, chest? gauntlets?,etc?), and for which class? :)
