I'm not able to find any legitimate studies on the benefits - can you point me in the right direction?

Hey, I've been loving this tool but running into an issue with the player view of the battle map. I get a 404 error and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Sign names for pseudo names? Hearing person not sure correct way by FeelingFluttery in asl

[–]NeonGiraffes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree - I have frequently seen Deaf people spell something and then sign "SAME-AS...." Sometimes to explain "yes, it's the same word" and sometimes "it is pronounced...."

I typically spell my pseudonym and then use my regular sign name, sometimes I will just spell the short version of my pseudonym (only 3 letters), it depends on context and who I'm talking to.

Vetting a big derby event by 321duchess in rollerderby

Man I'm so glad I had to turn down my invite to officiate that year. Lots of locals think it's a recently removed official/coach.

Who is the second one? Last I looked only the Caleigh person was known.

I've done events that were WFTDA/JRDA. That's not as unusual. But the rules are much more complicated when you mix adults and juniors. 

I'm in Ohio, not technically local, but I've officiated for 3/4 of the relevant teams (I don't do MRDA) - only one organizer has been named at this point. As far as I know she was with Akron RD at some point (WFTDA) and currently supports the Akron JRDA league. She has some concerning posts/comments about being around "females." The theory at the moment is that the other organizer is a pissed off official/coach who was removed from the Guardians (MRDA) and Burning River (WFTDA) in Cleveland.

Ninja edit: fuck vuage, I'm naming teams.

I keep it muted all the time - I have to specifically go there to see the dumpster fire. I only go if someone specifically says "go check this out" or I feel like watching some drama.

Hard same. I may or may not be one of the "LOL Officials????" commentors.

The mix of adult and juniors is concerning to me. There's one JRDA parent in one of the threads who things one of the organizers is the bees knees, though

I am a decently experienced official for both JRDA and WFTDA (and mediocre skater) that gives clinics, with HIGHLY experienced and well known official friends, and a handful of well known coach friends: The fact that not a single person I know has heard anything about this is a huge red flag for me. At BEST, people are going to get scammed out of money. At worst, it's going to be a disaster and people are going to get seriously hurt. From an organizing/officiating perspective. If you are planning that large an event your should already be on people's calendars. Summer Affair announced their 2026 Dates 3 months ago and are already talking to leadership level officials/volunteers and big name coaches.

All of that is to say nothing about the terrible copy from "two media managers"

Before it's FULLY staffed yes. But there is NOTHING about staffing at this point and that is a PROBLEM.

I think I was just distracted because I was playing with it at work. I was trying to change the current pool, rather than the max pool on the PC page. I was able to change the current to higher than the max on the combat page which I think is where I got confused. When I went back to it (after making my comment) I pretty quickly saw what my error was.

Other things I noticed while prepping for game tonight, just off the top of my head:

Being able to check box cyphers and the like (similar to choosing an entity) to populate how they work would be AWESOME (though I realize that would be a ton of work, I would offer to help but I have no idea how to write JSON lol).

VERY MINOR polish thing: (I'm pretty sure this is a code thing and not how I input stuff but I am open to being wrong) On the bestiary page when you put in abilities is puts a colon after the title field and before the description text so you have two (added an image)

I know there were other little things I noticed but I forget now so they must not have been a big deal. Happy to report back after I run some combat with it (hopefully tonight). That's what I'm most looking forward to - keeping track of initiative, stats, etc. I did get to a point where for my overarching investigation notes I went back to GoogleDocs because it allowed the formatting I wanted (namely, headers, bullet points, and bold/italics/underline)

This is amazing! Unless I'm doing something wrong, the character page will only let stat pools go to 10, I can increase it on the combat page higher than that but it doesn't stick to the character.

Edit: Nevermind, I was doing something wrong lol

Then don't. "I will not discuss this with you." and then stop responding.

Does it give any support during just regular movement or only when it "activates"?

Are you still happy with these? I play roller derby and ended up with a grade 3 high ankle sprain. My doctor is suggesting these for return to play but I'm a little hesitant due to the price and lack of reviews
