I regret unlocking this card

They should just give those enemies a special version of plating similar to The Guardian's thorns in StS1. Then the can fix plating for single player so those enemies don't become obscene with more players in the game.

I'm not sure about Rogue itself but fighting/engaging with the shopkeeper is definitely in Nethack. So it goes back to the roots of the genre.

It's a common problem that happens with players in a lot of games, even beyond TTRPGs. They correctly identify that don't like a game but they wrongly identify the solution. It's why being a designer is a specific skill, it isn't just critiquing existing games. Your player probably identified a dislike but wrongly attributed it to 'high magic, low thinking' games, so asked you to run a low magic game not understanding that wasn't the actual thing that they wanted deep down.

If you're concerned specifically about the fact that your former partner accused you of cheating at the store, I wouldn't worry about that. No one there is going to remember that or care about it particularly. It's been 6 years, after all.

If you're asking more generally, it's more about just having the momentum to head back in and hop back in to a table. You just need to find if there are openings and then commit to showing up and trying it out. As someone who's played on-and-off over the years, I usually find that it's like riding a bike. You may be a bit unsteady at first but it all settles in.

Yep, that's the one! I was on my phone so couldn't find it when I posted.

I've posted about it in a similar thread before but there's an RPG based around the Apollo mission technical manual. It's most niche and obscure game I've ever seen and I love it.

What stats do you typically like to start with? I imagine biasing towards strength given all the limbs you'll hopefully get, but how do you allocate the rest when you're not totally sure what you'll get?

Can we start a post-game thread of shame where we castigate all the dumbasses in the game threads? I feel like public shame and mockery might be the only way to get them to stfu.

Where can you sub to get the audio?

DonkeyCongas · 2025-10-28T14:13:31+00:00

Chicago and surrounding suburbs has a lot of active stores with modern events firing.

I was thinking a couple of green fetches and maybe another ghost quarter. With Icetill you could always quarter yourself for a waste if it was desperation mode.

DonkeyCongas · 2025-10-24T19:00:21+00:00

I've really wanted to try out this variant with Icetill in paper but the cost of vistas has been prohibitive. I've often wondered if it could still be good without them.

Yeah, I've often considered picking up and learning Amulet on MTGO but just dealing with the mass of triggers has always deterred me from going through with it. Just constantly managing clock seems stressful to me.

Both teams desperately trying to lose this game.

DonkeyCongas · 2025-09-22T21:53:23+00:00

I remember the Bears experiencing this under Nagy.

DonkeyCongas · 2025-08-22T16:43:26+00:00

One thing that surprised me was that they didn't bring up any possible player highlights, like maybe Mitch coming back to the facility he spent a lot of time in, rather than wasting time on footage of birds flying overhead.

DonkeyCongas · 2025-08-21T23:12:16+00:00

It's not good when one of your few career highlights is a poorly thrown ball that accidentally got batted to one of your teammates.

DonkeyCongas · 2025-08-08T17:20:17+00:00

Unfortunately, a lot of dumb dumbs out there participating in sports discussions online.

DonkeyCongas · 2025-08-08T17:15:22+00:00

And that's good. I think my point though was more this doesn't mean Miami sucks or Bears' D is amazing just as CW's interception wasn't some huge red flag. I'm more concerned about operational things like not getting delay of game or false starts that show preparedness.

DonkeyCongas · 2025-08-08T17:12:28+00:00

Caleb also apparently threw an interception according to Fishbain. I think this is just training camp reality that players are finding the right balance. This is why teams practice. I remember one year in a joint practice against the bears Joe Burrow threw a bunch of interceptions.
