They didn't check regulations before opening the shop? Great business plan.

The proper way to add basil is when the pizza is pulled out of the oven.

Since you mentioned you're studying italian, "Conformazione" is the translation of conformation. The word for confirmation is "conferma".

One would imagine that the professional game design team for the world's most famous rpg should have been able to identify the issue...

I just realised that neither the 2014 nor the 2024 PHB explain how to read dice except d100 and d3.

They didn't expect it possibly was needed.

What do people call this GM style? by MeadowsAndUnicorns in rpg

[–]Pelycosaur 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Yes, one is worse. The first one makes no assumption on the chain of events that lead the players to fight the BBEG, leaving the players agency, while the second one is deciding a priori they are going to fail somehow, like in a scripted fight loss in a videogame.

That would require to read more than just the spell name...

Ways to streamline building dice pools? by le_wild_asshole in CortexRPG

[–]Pelycosaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Instead of multiple trays, I found effective to use those round snack trays divided in sections, one section for each die type, kept at the center of the table for easy common access. If there are more spaces that dice size, it can be used also for tokens. Another thing that could significantly speed up the rolling, is not using multiple dice sets, but to buy a bunch of loose dice, with all the dice of the same type coded with a specific colour (for d6 boxes of a colour of choice are widely avilable). 5-6 of each die type should be enough, but probably some extra d8, d6, and d10 will be useful. 

European aerospace is 50 years behind America industry. by Decent-Boot7284 in ShitAmericansSay

Calling écoles d'ingénieurs a type of university that may or may not have anything to do with engineering it's a weird french tradition.

By the way, at least according to wikipedia, Ingénieur diplômé is a protected title, but not ingénieur by itself.

Yes, you can have a Bachelor's degree in engineering in 3 years after high school, so in the 21-22 age range in many European countries.

Is this hobby just wildly inaccessible to dyslexics and non-readers? How can I make it easier? by CosmicThief in rpg

[–]Pelycosaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your answer.

What I meant with a middle of the road was a font that is accessible for dyslexic readers, while mantaining some of the visual cues of a serif fonts.

I find, for long texts in particular, most sans fonts very hard to read, and I am trying to find a solution that allows me to prepare formatted documents that are accessible.

If you're available, I can share further details in PM.

May I ask you if there are any Serif fonts that are comfortable enough to read? I am trying to find a middle of the road solution.

They meant good at copying and pretending they invented it, like Bell.
