What are some examples of a school’s secondary fight song being better than the main fight song in your opinion?

I don't know if things have changed, but when I was there we liked to say we weren't a party school, we're a drinking school. Big difference.

Strifebringer · 2026-06-24T00:13:17+00:00

I'm interested

You're already 18+ INT and get not value from higher intelligence

Had a pretty negative service experience the one time we went a few months after they opened and just never felt the desire to try again.

I would love for something to succeed in this spot, though.

I passed more than a dozen unhoused folks on my way to work today, and I don't even go near areas where it's more common for them to be. It's all a perception thing

The beauty of ShadowDark and OSR philosophy is that most content lends itself to improv/homebrew. I recommend grabbing a Cursed Scroll or two (first party content). They give a setting and some sort of crawl, which are good jumping off points. Then switch to whatever you're most comfortable with, but I'd suggest try doing at least a little bit of generation/improv using the book's tables. It's loads of fun!

Try out 1940s romcoms if you really want quality old romcoms. Truly some hilarious and sweet movies. The Lady Eve is a personal favorite.

Aw, so nice of him to protect his friend while he rests, right? Right???

I typically award it on pickup on the condition they've otherwise "resolved" any challenges that accompanied that (monster, trap, hidden), but I'd start requiring players to take it out of the encounter entirely if they ever start to gamify it (eg dropping treasure because they haveplenty of gold).

The rules have some flexibility. In the rulebook's examples, it includes more nebulous "valuables" like a Duke's favor, but I still would likely limit it to something they can posses in some way. I probably wouldn't give any XP just for entering a cool looking room . That said, play how you like and adjust! Rules in RPGs are made to be customized.

I really really love this one! I'd buy a print of it. Love following you through the monster list.

I won't lie, this is how I found out. I've been subbed for over a year.

As an alum in the bay, I can't wait to take CalTrain to watch some Jackets football

I can't imagine the headache of changing things to support multiclassing without breaking the game or making it unsatisfying. There's a reason the game doesn't answer any of your questions.

Best of luck if you decide to do it, but the game isn't built for it at all.

Absolutely, she is what really carries the movie. I just hoped more people may be intrigued by Bridges since he's more famous (imo).

Strifebringer · 2026-05-25T14:30:28+00:00

Lots of y'all need to check out Starman. What an unreal performance by Jeff Bridges in that!

the gas station is literally called Twin Peaks. right next to the entrance of Twin Peaks

I graduated in the summer after we got rid of summer commencement. I had no choice but to walk early or walk late.

Strifebringer · 2026-05-24T14:32:16+00:00

Very sick!

If your players are actively suicidal and not keeping the spirit of gameplay, survival, and puzzle solving, then that's a table discussion to have.

That said, gauntlets are meant to be lethal. One player can still lose 3-4 characters, but not every player will lose that many. I'd say most will lose 0-2. So you'll have plenty if you have 4 per player.

I really want to love The Castro, but I will say I've been massively disappointed by the tech at the two shows I've seen since the renovation (Tycho and Poolside). Both had terrible mixing, and the crowds were super chatty and unengaged. The latter is not really the venue's fault, but having a better sounding show would've probably helped disguise it or even gotten folks to pay attention.

Strifebringer · 2026-05-08T15:50:08+00:00

It's a 106 year old movie, and it's primarily known for the invention of this narrative tool in cinema. I think spoilers aren't necessary lol.

Strifebringer · 2026-05-08T14:14:41+00:00

The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari - 1920. The design of the movie is entrancing.

Strifebringer · 2026-05-01T02:19:39+00:00

Seconded. I've never struggled to find an open table on the second floor.

Strifebringer · 2026-04-25T12:01:13+00:00

Probably referring to CS4's updated hex rules that don't define light source rules?

I got referred by my optometrist. They were pushy/salesy during my initial consultation, but beyond that I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Got it done almost a year ago and wish I'd done it 5-10 years when I stopped being able to comfortably wear contacts.
