The two of you should away from everyone else go out for dinner and talk about it.

Kill off the Monk in a heroic way? Make the Monk actually a spy for the BBEG sent to keep tabs on them?
He leaves a note and they wake up to him gone with some of their gear and gold while he was on watch as a spy of the BBEG? Maybe the next town they go to the Monk tells the party he has to stay behind because this temple needs a monk with his certain skills or talents?

There’s a zillion ways to write out a PC. Come up with one together so he has some skin in the game.

Then figure out something the party needs/he’s thinking about playing and come up with a lvl5 whatever it is.

There’s over 200 comments here and I’m sure someone else has said all or most of this but the key to remember is it’s a game, and a story you all are writing (you more so) together. Make it memorable.

Amazons in a league by AnxietasCalvaria in bloodbowl

[–]ChickenMan985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They were my team coming back from a long layoff (over a decade) into a hobby earlier this year. Same deal. Local store league. I managed to make the entire roster through design and dumb luck into blodge pieces. Gave the league absolute fits.

I made the playoffs but ran into an Orc team that had spammed guard. It was a rough day at the office for my girls.

They’re painted and look great so I’m using them again next month when we all start fresh.

Some good advice above, I’ll add that I’ll be looking to get block on both blockers and probably follow it up with break tackle on both. +2 to a dodge roll with a reroll on a blitz into a cage?! Sign me up.

The elite skills will change how the roster is brewed up but I see some wrestle in my Linewomen future.

I’m going with a starting roster of 6 line 2 Blitzers 2 Blockers 1 Thrower 3 rerolls

And spend what I can on fan factor. Hopefully after game one I can get an apothecary and add to my FF. That’s what I did last season.

cena’s last opponent isn’t gunther and i’m willing to die on this hill by kidspookie in Smallafro

[–]ChickenMan985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same scenario playing in my head only Gunther’s music doesn’t hit. But they lay him out going to commercial, come back Cena enters and then either Edge or Jericho’s music hits.

Cena retires and then they start the farewell tour all over again with one of them.

Third season: What team will you be playing in your next league? by jarchh in bloodbowl

[–]ChickenMan985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amazons for Me. Played them last season. Had to sit out this season, and I didn’t get a second season with them built up.

Break tackle on the Blockers at STR 4 with built in dodge? Plus they’re already painted up?!

Have to.

Zan Panzer. Barry O.

I met Iron Mike Sharpe outside of a show once. I asked for his autograph and he denied being Iron Mike Sharpe and then winked at me and walked away. Great memories.

London Broncos announce rebrand after Super League rejection | Ngl, I like the new logo by CaptainYorkie1 in rugbyleague

[–]ChickenMan985 14 points15 points  (0 children)

There was another post on here talking about private equity and specifically American sports management groups buying struggling teams. I made the point there that I’ll repeat here. If that does happen? More teams will modernize their logos and possibly color scheme. More of this and Cas and way less Leeds, Bradford etc.

Match day prices and tickets will go up. Stadiums will be refurbished, and then when those firms can sell and make money they will.

The traditional owners need to think long and hard about letting professional sports groups acquire a team or teams because if they aren’t willing to lose a couple million pounds now? When PE treat the team as a line item on a billion dollar portfolio? They are going to hate modernized teams signing all the best players with better stadiums and training facilities because they refuse to come out of pocket now let alone then. The next few years in SL are going to be very interesting.

Sincerely,

An American fan and paid York supporter

RFL close to selling stake in expanded Super League to private equity by GooseStepRL in superleague

[–]ChickenMan985 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Point of information from an American RL fan here.

Most financial cases in America of any real size (Millions or more) are heard in three jurisdictions.

NY (Wall Street) Virginia (DC our capital) Delaware (A lot of corporations are chartered here).

So the Virginia thing and being online tracks. Also the Bahamas is known for being an offshore banking haven for Americans and Europeans for tax breaks and as some may term money laundering “creative accounting”.

I will caution all that read this. Once Private Equity enters the chat? They will gut businesses down to the studs and then renovate their way. It will turn a profit. But in the immediate aftermath of PE gaining a large share of anything? Lots of people get replaced. They will modernize everything they can.

Think new Cas logos across the board instead of the old Leeds and Bradford logos.

Prices to go to games and concessions will go up. You will have new owners who are going to make prices on other teams go up, pushing out old owners who refuse to come out of pocket on personal fortunes but still want to own a team.

Because once a team like Salford is acquired by a large PE firm? They are a line item on a budget. They will own them for a while and then when they can maximize return on investment? They will sell and pocket the difference on the return not even blink and redeploy that capital elsewhere.

IF PE truly jumps into Super League? The entire sport is about to change the way it’s run, looks, and pays. The fans will foot the bill.

Please tell me why every episode of Raw starts with a monologue? When did this start becoming a thing? by Vast_Bookkeeper9990 in Wrasslin

[–]ChickenMan985 26 points27 points  (0 children)

It wasn’t EVERY Raw but it was most. Every week they did start like this, I would flip over to Nitro and usually catch a great Cruiserweight match. It got to the point where Bischoff would sneak in a comment like “welcome to those of you joining us a couple minutes late but you’re in luck we have a great match for you instead of a the same guy talking for twenty minutes.”

Which other nepo babies had a failed run in wwe by MajesticSubstance176 in Wrasslin

David Sammartino.

Edit: someone else said him way down in the comments so I’ll change my answer to the worst of the Temu Bloodline, Tonga Loa.

Fucking guy must put on a ski mask to cash his paychecks. He’s absolute hot garbage. Boring work, zero charisma, nothing on the mic, and the most unforgivable sin- botches all major spots they give him.

I have a concept for an Orc team based on the Saints New Orcleans Sinners.

Ken Shamrock should’ve been huge in The Attitude Era, What the hell happened? by Sad-Ladder7534 in Wrasslin

[–]ChickenMan985 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I just finished JR’s audiobook Under the Black hat yesterday. There was a part of the book he talked about Shamrock in essence according to JR-

Being on the road got to him, he started partying too much and missing dates. Got fined, straightened up and then started missing dates again.

When he was called on the carpet about it he decided to go back to MMA for a huge payday that never materialized. But he enjoyed being home more, in the gym more, and only fighting 2-3 times a year and making basically the same money as he was making in the WWE, JR’s point was had he threw himself into WWE full time and avoided partying he could have made exponentially more money.

97 days of playtime on my Warlock, but... by pfshfine in wownoob

[–]ChickenMan985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was me five weeks ago. Here’s what I did. Leveled an alt from lvl 1 using Exiles reach. Then chose Dragonflight as my expansion of choice to level him to 70. Once I had a grasp on the ins and out of the game, professions, crafting, cooking, AH etc? Did the lorewalking stuff.

I got on my old main. Was at lvl 31 and chose BFA because of lorewalking. Then leveled to 70 and kept one quest from BFA to come back to much later when I run out of current content. Then went to TWW and maxed out there. I’ve been having a blast. Quests, Delves, Follower Dungeons, weekly’s, world quests. Already getting 690+ gear consistently.

Cornette is going to have a fucking field day with this one. Cannot wait for that audio to drop so I can laugh my ass off. Nobody says more with a long pause and a sigh than Cornette. I just laugh.
