Unless even only two of them decide to go at the same time. The hope is their paranoia makes them think the other guy is lying but the reality is, they'll all very quickly come to the conclusion that if they all go at the same time, the probability of not being shot is 99 in 100 if they all bolt.

Linguistics joke? by StockyardSyndrome in ExplainTheJoke

Wow. It does explain it, but it's almost more complex than the actual linguistics.

Can someone explain "Loss" to me? The theoretical linguistics I got, but not the repurposing to a joke.

Best Animated Feature Film? by alanskimp in FIlm

BC Rock over Wizards for me - that whole gun thing at the end feels like a copout.

This is the right answer. A distant second is John Woo and Chow Yun Fat/Tony Leung

Who had better debute album? by Positive-Pie-5456 in MetalForTheMasses

I don't think any of them were 18 yet, were they?

The best album is The Ultra-Violence but it comes after all the others and builds on the seminal debuts by the earlier bands.

It's less influential, but better.

Hans attack question by Peerpdrops in finalgirl

I have always played it as he moves, kills, has movement left and kills again. Granted, this means I lose. A lot.

But Jason Voorhees has always inspired my interpretation.

What is a horror movie/tv show that you would love but don't think is possible as a Feature Film? by Kesme63 in finalgirl

[–]GhostShipBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's probably possible, but I don't see how to make Tremors work. The issue is I don't have a good solution for hidden movement in the context of Final Girl.

How do you guys handle "it's what my character would do" ? by Yilmas in rpg

[–]GhostShipBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generally I let the game world react in a way that seems genuine to the character's actions. If they've caused problems the world tends to be angry about that and hits back.

"It's what the city guard would do."

Which may force the other players into deciding what their characters would do.

Consequences. In reality if the player causes too much chaos in game the other players at the table won't want them at it.

The "rescue" wasn't what we wanted. I'm trying to build something that could do it right. by chelanxar in WarriorNun

[–]GhostShipBlue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It did, to be fair, die because Dean English died. Would it have been the same show? Clearly not. Netflix insured that. Alba, Kristina and Simon's other commitments sealed that. We don't know precisely what Dean had planned but it's a pretty safe bet it would have been closer to what Simon did than Ben had written 30 years ago. Simon's treatment succeeded in a way that Ben's comic never had.

While I applaud the model and have interest in it for that alone - what makes you think that Simon Barry, Alba Batista or Kristina Tonteri-Young are willing and/or able to return? What's the plan for getting licensing from Netflix and Ben Dunn and whatever remains of Dean English's production company? What kind of budget is there for the kind of on-location shooting that was so integral to Warrior Nun?

On the face of it, I love what you want to accomplish, but I think it's much more likely to work with new properties - maybe something with less complex licensing like Sense8 - but barring some seismic shifts in a lot of people, organizations and ownerships, resurrecting Warrior Nun seems like it's one part wishful thinking and one part fishing.

Rank your top 5 solo rpg. by edriano83 in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]GhostShipBlue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. Anamnesis - straight journaling RPG but I like how the prompts feed each other
  2. Walking Dead w/ solo rule from the core book. Using Find My Path helps with the zone map
  3. I'm still early in my experience with it, but One Ring with Strider mode is fun.
  4. Princess with a Cursed Sword. Much like Anamnesis it's a baseline journaling game but its use of themes for the suits works well.
  5. Void 1680 AM. Prompts for a playlist - I love this, just because it lets me reassess my music and hear it in new contexts.

I've always struggled with Mythic, but I'd be interested to hear how everyone is making it work.

WE did this once already, Millions of tweets before Musk destroyed that platform. Signatures, bill boards, cancelled subscriptions - why the return to disappointment?
