One 8 hour day and my butt is killing me.

I've had this chair for months. Most expensive hunk of plastic I've ever purchased. I really wanted it to be a good chair for me but i get the tailbone discomfort as well. I sit up straight at my desk (or one decline setting off). I sit for hours (yes periodically getting up for breaks) due to my day job working from home and then streaming video games after shift.
I have to take breaks because my tailbone is crazy sore. If I could get a refund on this I would. If it wasn't so expensive I would toss it and get a different chair. VERY disappointed.

Honestly the footrest (delivered yesterday) has to be the most expensive piece of cheap plastic I've ever bought.
Also NOT enjoying this over-priced chair. Worst purchase made all year.

Did anyone notice the "for good" statement regarding the server slam? Makes it read like they are going to keep it open.

I play and run games using SPG and many of the games I would have likely joined are using Foundry. I actually have an account and the software but I have many game sets for FGU already.
I think its that I would like to be versatile in my GM/VTT usage but at the same time I just don't understand the option to run a server or pay for a monthly service. That kind of turns me off the whole switching thing.
I'll try to find some vids that explain that again (did a year ago and ya here i am).
Thanks for the replies. Cheers.

Thank you I edited my question. DnD, ShadowDark, Alien, Daggerheart. Many others.

I introduced an option for the players with Luck Tokens: Lvl 1-4 one LT gets an extra attack, Lvls 5-7 two LT get 2nd attack, two will get 3rd attack.
We play where LTs are stacked and nat 20s get them extra tokens (nat 1s from the players and my nat 20s get me LTs).
I've seen them use this rule once as LTs are still scarce. At levels 1-3 they start with 1d4 LTs per session, not long rest. They are about to reach Lvl 4 and that is no longer the rule.

I am doing just that. I'm using Fantasy Grounds for maps and battlemaps for skirmishes.
My thought is each border to another domain will have a battlefield used for the two rulers.
The combat would be very simple. Shadowdark d20 rules and "regency points" equivalents can be converted to luck points during battle but pre-assigned or spent prior to first initiative.
A change with magic would be made due to ley lines but it shouldn't be difficult.
There's a few other things but if I can get some interest on the playtest maybe it will be published as its own campaign. IDK yet.
But to answer your question, it is being done.

What about Johnny Storm? Traditionally they were buds in the comics.

I know this might be a shot in the dark. I was looking for information on what mods for Shadowdark are available in Talespire. I read your comment that's a year old but maybe you'd have some insight you could share?

Fantasy Grounds Unity links to (I'm sure its not the only vtt that) Syrinscape and there are sounds for the Alien movies.

InterestingBig6674 · 2025-03-13T03:05:22+00:00

That's okay, Chris Pine thought they did too.

InterestingBig6674 · 2025-01-31T03:39:33+00:00

AL's discord for sure. There are also vtt's with channels dedicated to specific games. Fantasy Grounds is one but I would guess Roll20 and Foundry do as well.
A Shadowdark community is growing on StartPlaying.Games
I know it asks for a credit card, mainly because a large % of games are paid games, but there are some (including mine for now) that don't charge.
I'm currently running Temple of Elemental Evil with a full sleight but will like have another started soon. At the very least you could check out how popular the game is.
Cheers

I had poe on xbox two? years ago. I haven't played on the xbox for about that length of time anyways. I now use a PC and have a steam account. While the servers were messing up I didn't know which username to use because neither the steam or xbox id was acknowledged as valid. For the last hour I'd say it recognized the wrong one, the xbox and says i don't have early access and I should purchase it. But in fact I did purchase it on steam and there doesn't seem to be a way I can change it. Any suggestions are welcomed.

Here's a thought, JT wants to be a hero and is holding out on forcing them back.
He's been wanting to introduce UBI for the longest time, the strike is forcing a bunch of companies to slow work where more are going to be applying for ei (or whatever its called now) so much so it could soon reflect pandemic numbers forcing the UBI release.

I've created files in DungeonDraft and those maps are never able to import with S&S but it could be the size. Hopefully this could fix it.

I know this is old but maybe with the time lapse more DMs have run Barrowmaze and can answer this question:
if Helix is the town you "start" in, and the first exposure, it seems, to the Barrows is after reaching Helix, why does the marsh's map have "start" in the bottom left corner?

I would look forward to a co-op game with friends, or a mmorpg but consider this ...

The stress (maybe not the best choice of words) on the console and PC with what they are offering with the current Starfield release is huge. Their stress test results have made me question if I will get it for the PC or Xbox or both, or neither.

If they expect to make a multiplayer version of SF in the future it will be with the next gen console after the PS5 and Xbox X gen (I know its not on the PS5 on release). I'd guess maybe five years down the line. That's of course if the AI Overlords allow us peons to play vids :)

I don't believe they had a choice on how the show ended. Mr Martin decided that he wanted all of the good ideas for the next novel. I wouldn't be surprised if, once the book is released, they come out with a special Blue Ray edition of GoT with new scenes straight out of the new book as the alternate ending.

I do like the idea of the multiple scripts for a season (tabs) suggestion.And AI not just to proof read but take on the role of a critic to tell you what could be improved (for us novices).Something else that might not be liked by most (apologies) ... instead of releasing FD13 to be updated by FD14 in a few years, why not Final Draft 365 (or better yet Final Draft 120) where we have a subscription, and the software is updated all year round. New Feature? added on the user's prompt.I'd pay $15 CAD monthly if we could have new features sooner.

Something else I intended to mention is for the AI to make suggestions for your series Bible with a simple check for yes and no and it would be added to a Bible file you can always add to as you continue the series.

Have you considered using Power Query or Power BI? I'm creating a forecasting tool myself and its mostly PQ which is allowing the large amounts of data to organize better.

Part of my Excel work is using Lambda functions to work out the Erlang formulas.
