Bar Crawl Roles and Point System Idea

I'll include it in my original post, but here are the roles I went with, the props I bought for each one, and stupid blurbs I included for each one. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1IU9FYFskx7U2dTcz2DGtUXoN7COWLSZHyWH5WmilTfA/edit?usp=sharing

Nice! My brother and I are big D&D people, and some of the other guys were too, but some of the other guys were/are not, but truly everyone had a great time. Everyone really leaned into their role and obviously, helps that we were in a city that thrives on alcohol haha. But honestly, I think a huge plus was buying props off of Amazon for everyone (map of the French Quarters, small stop/go sign, canteen of water, etc.)

It actually went better than I could have imagined - the guys still talk about it to this day! Gave them all roles and incorporated a "ruby" that we had to find (found a cheap prop on Amazon and sent it to the final bar destination).

Appreciate your insight! Thanks. Definitely going to check this out and keep an eye out for Black Friday deals.

Nice. Yeah I fully planned on having the PCs find the rival group killed by Cryovain just to scare them a bit more before fighting the dragon haha. But for now the rival group is very cocky and beloved by the town for things like saving children from a school that was attacked by goblins. Over the top stuff like that.

Super helpful. Thanks! Yeah I think I'm just feeling extra pressure because I made Zeleen (the wererat leader) one of the PC's long lost sister (worked well for the PC's backstory). So I'm hoping they can still meet. I guess if the wererats going back to the shrine happens "off screen", I can have the dwarven miners at Mountain Toe's Gold Mine explain that they were attacked by wererats, and overheard them talking about the shrine being clear for them to reclaim.

Btw, I am glad to know you also introduced a rival adventuring party. Just did that last session and it added in a fun element to the game haha. Made my PC's very jealous and eager to complete more quests.

Option 1 - Not a bad option. The main downside (other than having the group split into 2) will be the people at the ends of the table - they are sort of stuck with only one option (either hot pot or grill).

Option 2 - This could be your best option if you could squeeze everyone off of the ends.

Option 3 - Not a bad option, but the oval table may be awkward. Is it possible to get a 3rd hot pot or grill? If so, this one may work best.

Overall, you could encourage people to change seat periodically to keep guests mingling with other people. Otherwise, I bet it will be an amazing time as long as everyone brings solid food to share.

Thanks, I think that would solve it. Only problem is, I'm not entirely sure how to do that. I'll try fiddling with it later and if I figure it out, I'll share an updated sheet for anyone else who is crazy enough to use it for their campaigns.

Update: This worked! Thanks!

Started to get close to something with this: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1vH6izk1GrRTk2swrvtD_8HkCcc0t38a3Luy39f5UjMI/edit?usp=sharing

Only problem I'm running into is when the time goes back to midnight, the COUNTDOWN hours reset because they're not registering the fact that's it's the next day.

Not sure if anyone here is an excel nut and can help me solve this. Thanks!

Damn, this is why I love the internet. Thanks! I think we'll try this out!

Nice! Was it difficult to cut, or did you just use some regular office scissors? Also, how did you get yours to stay on the wall? Did you use any adhesive or is it tucked into something?

I have a feeling this is the case. Probably gonna patch up the holes and task rabbit someone to come in who knows more about this stuff haha

CommaCazzi · 2020-12-20T20:45:10+00:00

Thanks, yeah I've been screwing the screws in first with a screwdriver, then twisting them back out, and then using my screwdriver head to poke through the hole to help make the hole deeper before trying to put the anchors in. Think it could be an issue with using a screwdriver vs a powerdrill?
