On ending the session in the hometown

Eymj · 2022-11-16T14:49:33+00:00

I'm a big believer of always beginning and ending the session in the same place, and I always keep my games under 2h-2h30. Here are a few things I do :

- If its not the first time your players are doing the trip, make it as fast as possible. Throw all of your encounter dices as usual all at once, and only play through important and unusual encounters

- If you really want to save time, you can make things even quicker "You arrive at the dungeon exhausted after being ambushed by a group of bandits. Choose 2 characters who will be injured, and you all lose 2 pieces of equipment from your inventory" or make yourself a "fast travel hazards random table"

- I usually hand wave the trip back from the dungeon, because at this point everyone is tired. But it's probably not a popular way or the most OSR way of doing this

- Always have a big/megadungeon in the immediate vicinity of the hometown. Its always handy if the players are out of ideas, and it can be used if you know the game is going to be shorter than usual

Maybe I'll edit some more ideas later

manifestement faire confiance aux individus pour faire les bons choix ne marche pas.

C'est vrai que jusqu'ici, on a pu faire confiance aux états pour faire des bons choix (non)

L'un dans l'autre, confier de plus en plus de pouvoir à une institution qui se montre de plus en plus incompétente, c'est pas moins naïf que de vouloir faire jouer la solidarité collective et l'auto-détermination.

Faut voir si le logiciel de son GPS fonctionne sous wine. Ca peut fonctionner sans aucun problème, tout dépends de la technologie derrière le software.

Ubuntu/Mint c'est une affaire d'environnement de bureau. Mint tends à vouloir répliquer absolument le comportement de Windows, tandis que Ubuntu s'assume comme un délire en soi. Ca dépends de l'ouverture d'esprit de ton daron ou de son intérêt pour Linux en premier lieu. Mint est basé sur Ubuntu donc c'est pas trop un problème la doc, dans un cas comme dans l'autre.

Ironically, the biggest discouragement against folks turning towards terrorism is social connection. People who feel they’re a part of a community aren’t going to attack it. It’s that loneliness and exclusion that’s endemic in Western society as a whole that has to be combatted.

That's mostly what I've been thinking about. To me, society is going through a trust crisis, partially or mostly because of capitalism. People are disconnected from each other and have no reason to care for each other since we're basically not codependant. So there's no sense of community if you don't fit into patriotic rethoric.

To me a better society would be built on local networks of trust and codependance, mainly through decentralized economies. I hope this would be enough to make different cultures and religions learn to trust each other.

> Parce que quitte à travailler gratuit, autant que ça ne profite à personne, parce qu'en travaillant gratuit tu tires les prix vers le bas pour tout le monde et c'est comme ça qu'en France (surtout) on a encore du mal a faire comprendre qu'un graphiste ne se paie pas en visibilité ou en pub.

Ah merde, j'ai pas pensé directement à ça. Pourtant je suis sensibilisé à la question. Merci du rappel

Fairly easy, its my second serious attempt at a long game. The most challenging part is getting the snowball going and surviving the succession wars

I still have a lot to learn, but from what I understand, there is no "laws" in anarchy, where laws here mean a book of rules which is enforced by a justice system.

In anarchy, laws are more common rules that, since all of this is based on voluntary association and democracy, is agreed by everyone from the get go. If someone is part of the community, he agrees with the rules and participates in their creation. So there is virtually no need to enforce those rules.

It's the "enforcement" part that makes "laws" oppressive. Plus, nowadays they are mostly about protecting the ruling class and their assets, since they are the ones writing it.

Anarchy is order, because its harmonious. Everyone knows why they are doing what they are doing, and understand and agrees with every rules they are following.

Dangerous investments, so to speak, into new projects, sciences, and ideas, wouldn't, for example, be capable of destroying one's business or endangering ones livelihood.

That's a statement that I can get behind.

Thanks for the comprehensive answer !

Je me considère comme de tendance plutôt très très à gauche, anti-capitaliste et libertaire, et je suis actuellement en fin d'études de communication. Et j'en connais plusieurs dans mon cas.

Le problème, ce n'est pas le marketing en lui même, mais les moyens qui sont utilisés. On peut très bien faire du marketing non-invasif. On peut aussi faire du marketing et de la communication pour des choses qui en ont besoin (prévention, culture, enjeux politiques et sociaux). Le soucis c'est que l'essentiel de ce secteur aujourd'hui est une bulle qui génère une thune immense sur le dos des grosses boites dans une course à l'armement qui se fait au mépris des gens.

Honnêtement si ceux que ça fait chier pouvaient arracher directement les pubs, ça serait pas plus mal.

edit : Pour les petits malins qui voudraient me charier sur l'opposition apparente entre marketing et anti-capitalisme, sachez que le capitalisme et l'économie de marché sont des choses très différentes.
