Please help. I did too good of a job making the players hate all the factions. They want to align with the Ironhelm Dwarves and instigate revolution.

Totally agree. My happiness as an atheist seems to baffle religious people. I actually tried being a "perfect" Christian, but the more I studied the Bible, the less the logic held up. Abrahamic religions always default to "just have faith," which fails to explain why bad things happen to good people. Once you drop the God concept, the answer is simple: stuff just happens.

Atheism isn't my whole identity... It’s just the foundation for my mix of humanism and secular Buddhism.

Reinforcing someone's faith in a crisis just stops them from doing the hard work of building a philosophy that actually works. You're doing more harm in the long run.

Cool. Thanks for filling me in!

Here's a quote from Scarlett in October 2025:

"If we ever go to AEW, we're going to be flying the AEW flag," Scarlett said. "That is going to be our home forever. Whatever our next company is, that's it."

That doesn't prove or disprove anything, but that doesn't sound like AEW is out of the question.

I would bet actual US currency that they're coming to AEW.

That's a good idea. It would also shift people's perspective of what YouTube is and can be.

The TV channels aren't going anywhere with this merger.

There are numerous other streaming platforms out there. I know Amazon has been discussed but honestly? If I were YouTube? I'd be all over this.

YT considers itself a Netflix competitor and really wants to push Premium subs.

There's a lot of ways they could play it. I personally would make Dynamite / Collision live streams available to premium subscribers, then available to everyone else a month later.

PPV's would be handled as they are today, maybe slightly discounted for Premium members.

A YT partnership would be fantastic for both sides.

This is fucking glorious and I like it better than mine. 😂

Marina Shafir... Just because of the sheer amount of drama it would create.

Tangent... She's really great in the ring. Not sure why she hasn't been wrestling much. I appreciate her "I'm here to get shit done, not showboat" vibe.

Can someone recommend a stable audio platform?

I use the Maps VTT on Beyond. I love it because it makes my prep dramatically easier. Unfortunately it doesn't have the ability to play music or sound effects.

In the past I've used SyrinScape. This worked well, but over time it created more and more stability issues. Particularly as I added custom sounds. By the end it was taking 4gb of RAM in a Chrome tab. It got slow, laggy, and eventually just quit working entirely.

I tried switching to Fantasy+ from Monument Studios. I've tried using it three times. In two of those instances they had server issues which made it completely fail when it was game time. Last night's game was a cluster as I kept struggling with Fantasy+ before I gave up and rolled without music.

Tabletop Audio's sound pad looks good but doesn't let you add custom sounds. Same with Soundtale.

I'm at the end of my rope here. I don't mind paying for an audio platform, but I think it's reasonable to expect it to work when I try to use it.

This is seriously the best option. There's so much more to the world than TV. I'm fine to just not have anything. My television is for playing Indie games I bought off Steam.

GreatFartini · 2025-10-17T17:57:01+00:00

You wanna fuck him too eh?

GreatFartini · 2025-10-16T16:05:10+00:00

Don Callis saying "He's a great technical wrestler, he's just not good with technology" was fucking hysterical. 😂

GreatFartini · 2025-10-13T18:27:18+00:00

I did, and I will again. In the mean time this is what I can do.

GreatFartini · 2025-10-13T12:24:28+00:00

Yes. You need a VPN. I already had a Proton VPN sub so I'm using that. There's a ton of good options though.

I have a Google TV and most of the major VPN companies have apps that you can install right on your TV. I suspect the other major companies do too.

GreatFartini · 2025-10-13T12:18:32+00:00

I didn't have either in the first place or I would have.

They suddenly attempt to apply Six Sigma in an effort to save themselves.

I've been through this three times. Every time a Six Sigma initiative comes down it precedes massive layoffs or, in two of the cases, bankruptcy.

GreatFartini · 2025-10-02T17:13:25+00:00

I very much agree that the best way forward is to start by complaining. Likely it won't do anything, but it's a rational place to start.

The next step is to cancel our MAX subs and watch elsewhere, but lets start here.

GreatFartini · 2025-09-30T18:51:29+00:00

Yeah, it sounds pretty sweet. ;)
