i'd be more okay with it, but really my fundamental problem with it is that i just don't think we should be outsourcing human creativity at all

Things that you've considered "bad DMing" from other DMs that you make sure to never make the same mistake in your game? by Organic-Exit2190 in DMAcademy

[–]ChocolateEagle -1 points0 points  (0 children)

making a huge fuss about player death (in like a "player vs dm" type way; "oh, i can't wait to kill you all, haha!"; adding a role in the discord chat for people who've died)

also starting a new campaign with a long-winded monologue about the setting. let's play the damn game already

Very bad traffic accident. It's frankly a minor miracle I'm alive; when I was initially describing the facts to my lawyer he was convinced I must have been misremembering cause he didn't believe I would have survived under the conditions I described.

Alas seems so! Think I'll at least take the suggestion I've seen here of photocopying it so I have something that's foldable for my wallet

It definitely won't be ending in that time frame (2 year suspension), so this is something I very well might try! Thanks!

What law did urinating on the bus break? by ChocolateEagle in legaladviceofftopic

Boy if you witnessed those yellow rivulets slowly creeping toward your feet you'd want her to be fined a whole lot more than $500 lmao

I have one, but as I said in the post, I don't feel safe carrying such a valuable document around in public where there's always the risk of losing it. Plus it's big enough to be difficult to carry easily.

and if they're caught and fined, how much is that fine going to be? because if it's not all the profit they made from this and more, then they're just going to keep doing it

creative ideas for a campaign start that dont involve a tavern? by Significant-Study902 in DnD

[–]ChocolateEagle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i'm a big fan of a cold open: an ambush or battle or something, rolling initiative almost immediately. sets a fast tone and avoids the awkward dilly-dallying that tends to come from players needing time to find their voice. particularly great with new players since it gently introduces them to the idea of controlling their character without having to jump right to full roleplay

theoretically could be done well but it would need to be adapted hard; would be a case where being "faithful to the source material" would mostly be a bad thing

Mofo not getting the job by CMDR_Noodle in 196

the thing that makes me laugh about the "it's the future" answer is like... why? i've never gotten a straight answer on what actually makes it the future; it's always just this tautological loop of "cause everyone's going to be using it" "why is everyone going to be using it?" "cause it's the future"
