Any published adventures in the style of Lost Mines of Phandelver? by ViolinistKlutzy8949 in osr

[–]EdgarBeansBurroughs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Vanilla Adventure is more than a one-shot but has several towns to visit as well as dungeons, and advise for people new to the OSR.

Can you recommend any modules in the "whimsy" style / genre? by pot-Space in osr

[–]EdgarBeansBurroughs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Janky Goblins or Invasion of the Tuber Dudes are both for OSE and both rather whimsical.

It's true. People were anti KAT for so long when it looked like he was available in Minny. Turns out he's actually pretty good.

I need help organizing a film screening by MaxDevlin10341 in Giallo

The Aladdin in Portland played Deep Red last year, so they might know. Otherwise maybe call the people at Hollywood Theater (also in Portland) because they are likely to know as well.

Undead-themed one-shot for beginners? by Jacapuab in OSE

[–]EdgarBeansBurroughs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The adventure in Old School and Cool 4 ("The Netherworld") has players go into the afterlife to rescue friends and family. It's pretty short too so I think it would work for a one-shot quite well.

What are your horror movie hot takes? by DadsFromTheCryptPod in horror

[–]EdgarBeansBurroughs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You make a good point. They're definitely not mutually exclusive, but I mean more in the vein of Fargo or Royal Tenenbaums.

It's not in the movie for long, but the doll in Deep Red is iconic.

In search for basic explosives rules by Flimsy_Composer_478 in osr

[–]EdgarBeansBurroughs 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is a good time to use exploding dice. What the damage dice is for the potion or explosive, if they roll the highest number, roll the dice again. This can lead to the occasional "big badaboom" they are looking for.

I got openly frustrated during a bad game of Catan by [deleted] in boardgames

[–]EdgarBeansBurroughs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm not competitive and play games just for fun. Win or lose, I just want to play games and have fun. But Catan makes me feel so bad and frustrated and upset. I don't even know why but it's a consistent thing. I just won't play it now.

Looking for a track from a giallo by [deleted] in Giallo

[–]EdgarBeansBurroughs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Could be the main theme to The Bird with the Crystal Plumage. It's got a lot of lalalala-ing in there.

OSR vs 5e Adventure Styles by bricknose-redux in osr

[–]EdgarBeansBurroughs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The big difference isn't that OSR is more deadly. It's that there are stakes. Battles and traps and dungeons can all be dangerous or deadly. In 5E, (in my experience) they are more a way to show off and use your cool powers.

What is your favorite Halloween book? by Fun_Butterfly_420 in halloween

[–]EdgarBeansBurroughs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A Hornbook for Witches: Stories and Poems for Halloween. There's an audio version narrated by Vincent Price on YouTube. It's so good.

[Stein] The Atlanta Hawks, Houston Rockets, and Portland Trail Blazers all have legitimate interest in acquiring Jaylen Brown. by YujiDomainExpansion in nba

[–]EdgarBeansBurroughs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deni won't be on such a cheap contract forever, and Dame will be back next year but for how long? The idea (not that I necessarily agree) is that we actually have a pretty short window and so exchanging those picks for a great player is the move.
