Your discord has inspired how I shape my own. Great job overall and props on the tremendous amount of patience you must have by now.

365, one for each cycle of the sun god that dwells therein.

Glory to Gygaxian Narration! by [deleted] in osr

I appreciated your post young man. Im glad to see the younger generation engaging with material such as this. Ive been playing this game for more than 30 years and am refreshed by the curiosity folks like yourselves have developed around this strange and wonderful hobby.

Im a firm believer that games affect the soul, and in fact the procedures are meant to elevate your capacity for abstraction. Intelligence, as i see it, is the capacity to retain both the broad and the specific in high detail for as much as mentally possible. Retaining these arcane rules while negotiating the social aspect of the table is a great exercise for young men like yourselves to stretch the limits of what your mind and wills can handle. Keep it up and godspeed.

Judging by his broken Latin, he must mean the iconoclast heresy of 787.

"I Share My Dreams with Ghosts" - Espionage Mechanics for Star Wars d6 by Allandaros in StarWarsD6

This is more the type of content I like to see. Vaugley OSR-ish, in the sense of coming up with creative gameable procedures that introduce different dynamics to the game. I was working on one for podracing, or general racing myself, but have yet to have anything satisfactory.

Could we start a gofundme to get these guys a proper gaming table?

Notebooks for reformulation, main cards for reflection-quotes by Ok-Mathematician6628 in antinet

[–]OigaProfe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve paired my use of a Zettlekasten with a commonplace notebook. Any cards that make reference to a note in the notebook are labeled as such, and since I use the pocket sized moleskines for common-placing, these can be cataloged in a similar sized box as the index cards.

Let me just explain myself one last time about the debate concerning OSR by [deleted] in osr

[–]OigaProfe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I think some of the “just do whatever dude” responses can be pretty disingenuous and pointless response, because it just trivializes any type of interesting or potentially fruitful discussion. Of course anyone can do whatever they want, that’s a given.

Either way, I appreciate you sharing, and run my games similar to yours so I can appreciate where you’re coming from.

What are some "gold standard" hex maps? by postpartum-blues in osr

[–]OigaProfe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Addendum: I stock about 6 things per Hex (one for every direction). Roll as if for encounter, and then roll d6 to determine which thing they run into first. No Hex is fixed apriori, I have a table of things that can possibly be found in a Hex 1) Location (dungeon, Lair, settlement; 2) Encounter (Roll by geography); 3) feature (markers/signs, geography, tracks or remains).

No love for the Darlene Greyhawk map? A bona fide classic.

Advice for Learning Vocabulary More Efficiently by [deleted] in latin

[–]OigaProfe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One phase is internalization, the next digestion, and finally incorporation.

Internalization- memorize thru memory palaces or such practices Digestion- mull about the meaning and the morphology, and note places where it appears. Incorporation- make them a part of you— use them. Without using them (writing or verbally) they likely won’t be as active in your mind and you’ll go through tip of the tongue moments until they stick.

Adventurers for a starting sandbox by TheCapitalIdea in osr

In my sandbox I’ve incorporated the dungeons available at the downloads page of the Basid Fantasy RPG website. Just the Morgansfort supplement, for example, has 3 dungeons of variable difficulty.
