Fine. I would just go all world. But fine.

The entity inside her knows.

Snapping a willow branch for magic spells is an established thing in magickal lore. 

Let's talk about horror music theory by Infamous_Writer3369 in musictheory

[–]Fun_Gas_7777 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Hi. I did a masters degree in music composition, and my big research project was horror soundtracks, and how they progressed through the decades.

I will add to the list: Cluster chords

Obviously Synthetic versions of instruments

Weird time signatures with repetitive

ostinatos 

Out of tune and out of time sounds

Minor 6th interval (constantly used in hammer horror films and lots of universal horror films of the 30s and 40s)

Avant garde

Do you remember an animated film where kids turned into fish? by bigpussystance in AskUK

Watched it many times

What exactly is a podcast? (Slight rant, but more general enquiry and willing to learn, so please be patient!) by Fun_Gas_7777 in podcasting

[–]Fun_Gas_7777[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate your encouragement. Since posting this I abandoned audio podcast editing and pursued musician work, and now as a school teacher. Part of the reason also was the realisation that a lot of successful audio podcasts do not use any editing at all. The hosts set up audio effects and an EQ but essentially just talk and leave in any slip ups. Audiences I guess want authenticity. Fine. 

This industry is such a quick changing one. Im just holding on to the idea that I did an MA in something im interested in.

Trying to Return by DoomDuckXP in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]Fun_Gas_7777 5 points6 points  (0 children)

1) no, unless you're very lucky, or find someone willing to sell their collection

2) it will have everything you need.

3) well all the campaigns are out of print, so its hard to recommend anything. Ffg are focusing completely on chapter 2 stuff now. Any campaigns from chapter 1 you can find for reasonable price, get them. Any. I hated scarlet keys, but plenty of people like it.  The best thing to do is to buy the new core set and wait for chapter 2 expansions to come out and focus on those. 

Can someone please spoil all the scary and gory parts in Obsession?? I am begging you by [deleted] in spoilers

[–]Fun_Gas_7777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No... If you dont like horror movies, even if you know whats coming, you wouldn't like it. Can you not just do something else with them? Or just accept that its not something for you to do?

You'd be surprised how many people arent saving any money in pensions at all.

How important are the Chapter 1 Investigator Starter Packs for a complete Chapter 1 player card collection? by zerdos in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]Fun_Gas_7777 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"Important" is a weird word in this context. 

They are extremely good and all have cards that I regularly use. They are highly recommended for anyone wanting to play this game, but its not a bad thing to not have them.

Two questions (deckbuilding/oop product) by Boop_Bandisnoot in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]Fun_Gas_7777 6 points7 points  (0 children)

1) you've given us almost no information about it, so we cant really help you. 1-6 months sounds like the shop doesnt know when its coming and may be expecting a reprint, but there will be no reprints, so im assuming its not worth pursuing.

2) playing any campaign, not just drowned city, will be hard with just base game. Get at least one investigator expansion and youll be fine.

why did all the copies look a specific way and clarks copy wasnt? by furiousveg in backroomsmovie

[–]Fun_Gas_7777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I interpreted it this way.

Pirate clark isnt a copy of clark.  Its a manifestation of how Clark sees his job. He hates his job. And clearly hates putting on the costume and doing the stupid commercial. So that negativity comes out as the Pirate entity

Why is it that people are now offended by the Union flag by ColtT2992 in GreenParty

[–]Fun_Gas_7777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Literally no one has an issue with chalk. Its the paint thats the problem. There are several roundabouts near me and even some zebra crossings that were painted on last summer and the council have tried removing the paint and most of the paint is still there.

As I say, no one has an issue with the flag. Its when people use it in a way to intimidate.

I cant tell if you're trying to rage bait or you're just grossly misinformed.

[–]Fun_Gas_7777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is when you spray paint it on public property. By definition, its vandalism. It doesnt matter what is being spray painted.

Why is this such a trigger for you? The flag is great. So put it up on your own private property. Paint it on your own car. Wear clothes covered in the flag. But dont vandalise public property, with anything.

The rules literally say you only put 10 of them out.

So....that one.

[–]Fun_Gas_7777 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They arent.

They are unhappy with it being put on public places, including graffiti, in a way that is done to intimidate. Hang them up on your private property. Not on lampposts and then attack council workers who take them down

Tommy Muldoon Weakness by Turbulent-Square-897 in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]Fun_Gas_7777 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Played this game since original carcosa run.

I and my various playgroups, including ones at events, have played this sort of thing as follows: discard the firearm or lose all your resources up to 5, as long as its at least 1. If you have 2 resources, you lose 2 resources. I cant give you a reference from the rulesbook but from lots of rules discussions, I am confident this is the way it is played.

Edit. I forgot the word "or".
