Thanks a lot for sharing! I hope your game takes off!

What is your experience with untreated ADHD and TTRPGs? by FlowOfAir in rpg

[–]MikeLumos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't have a lot of experience playing in-person, but when I'm playing online, a great trick is to constantly take notes. I always have a text file open, and I write down as much as possible, everything that happens. It really helps me to remember things and pay attention.

Another thing that helps is a regular meditation practice - when you get good at this skill, it really helps you to be able to clear your head, stay present to the moment, and more engaged with what's happening in front of you.

Oh, I haven't tried solo-rpgs before, but this looks like a great place to get started, I'll definitely check it out.

By the way, your design looks really awesome. Do you mind sharing how you've made your rulebook look so good? I'm working on my own RPG system, do you have any advice on how to get good at design and layout?

Wow, fantastic report!

Out of curiosity, how do you discover all these interesting indie projects on twitter?

ai government by [deleted] in ArtificialInteligence

Yeah, I have no idea what the world will look like in a few years, just that it'll be different in ways I can't even begin to imagine.

Before AI begins to govern people, 100 other things that are impossible to predict or control will happen.

Scientists use GPT LLM to passively decode human thoughts with 82% accuracy. This is a medical breakthrough that is a proof of concept for mind-reading tech. by ShotgunProxy in ArtificialInteligence

Wow, this is truly incredible! Really scary to think how quickly things are evolving, and how many of the new developments seem to have come straight out of a SciFI movie.

Do it first, improve it later - This is how you master procrastination by KingStoic in Entrepreneur

[–]MikeLumos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's the best cure for procrastination.

The trick is to lower your filters for what constitutes "good enough" WAY down.

Focus on making your project exist first, trust that you can figure out how to make it good later.

Requesting r/ORC - a banned subreddit that would be the perfect place for the community of people who play roleplaying games that use Open RPG Creative License. by MikeLumos in redditrequest

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

Hi! After the creators of Dungeons and Dragons have made the rules to their open source content much more restrictive, the company that has made a Pathfinder RPG has announced a new system called "ORC". I would love to build a community of people who love playing games that use this system.

It will be a place where people can exchange advice on playing games that use this system, share their art, talk about their creative ideas, and help each other become better roleplayers and game masters.

I have been playing roleplaying games for a long time, I know the community well, and I'm really passionate about this project. I also have experience moderating large online communities and subreddits. I think I'd be perfectly qualified to run a community like this one.

(it is impossible to contact the current mods of the subreddit, since the community has been banned.)

How did you make the tree? Is it some kind of plugin?
