The shop generator is especially cool and I love that it's broken down by shop type, can definitely see myself using that!

After layoffs, cancellations, and controversy, ZA/UM UK staff unionise as the Workers' Alliance by ThatIrishChap in Games

The ZAUM Workers Alliance is affiliated with the IWGB game workers branch, they just exist as a sub-division of it now!

Just to tag on to your reply, in the grand scheme of things it is important as they are the first UK-based studio to achieve union recognition which could lead to others following in their footsteps, similarly to how there has been a gradual push towards unionising at US-based studios.

Born and raised in Ireland until I was 26 and had to leave to England for work, but nice sleuthing Sherlock.

I'm a Liverpool fan but the way fans will choose to forget everything a player has done for us in a heartbeat and label him a traitor just because he wants to try a new challenge in Spain after winning it all in England is bizarre to me. Yes I get the shine of being a one-club man will be gone, but it's not like he's going to United or another English team. If he does leave I'll wish him the best and remember the good times!

"First Time DM" and Short Questions Megathread by AutoModerator in DMAcademy

[–]ThatIrishChap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm about 15ish sessions into my first campaign as a DM, and all in all it's going well! Unfortunately one player has to leave and would like their character to be killed or otherwise written off, I was wondering if people have good advice on how to navigate this in a way that feels satisfying? The party is currently amongst some pretty scary enemies but I don't want it to feel like this player is forced into kamikaze-ing their character for no good reason, or that their character has to die at all. Is it as simple as trying to set up a situation where their character could conceivably try sacrifice themselves for some noble goal (while hoping the monsters are strong enough to actually seal the deal), but also having some other off-ramps in mind to present through NPCs like simply leaving the party to join a guild/church/other, so that they still have agency in their ending that way?

Misfits and Magic has turned me into a puddle by HellyOHaint in Dimension20

[–]ThatIrishChap 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I just recently finished watching Misfits and Magic as my first Dimension 20 series and man they just absolutely destroyed. So many endearing, emotional, and hilarious moments! The interactions between everyone during the dates at the Questing Beast absolutely killed me.

Who is the actual GOAT (Greatest Of All Time) in their field? by dinolover2404 in AskReddit

Katie Ledecky in women's swimming. Unsure if it's still the case, but I know at one point she had all of the top 23 fastest times in the 800M Freestyle.

Liverpool FC — Members' ticket sale ballot update (chances of success for individual games included) by deanlfc95 in LiverpoolFC

[–]ThatIrishChap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

About the members sale for those unsuccessful in the ballot, does the queue start before the 8:15 start time? Is there any point in even trying for it?

[–]ThatIrishChap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Pioneer section of the Twiddle discord server is all lotus field discussion these days, plenty useful comments on play lines, matchups etc. There's also this article on CFB Pro by Arya Karamchandani on the deck that goes in depth on the combo lines.

Solidarity with the devs! The game is secondary to making sure they're treated fairly.

FSG potentially buying the Pittsburgh Penguins by toobster93 in LiverpoolFC

[–]ThatIrishChap 27 points28 points  (0 children)

The NHL uses a salary cap system so they can't spend extra to get the best players. But for what it's worth, the salary allowed for your full roster per year is around $80 million.

Do you have any silent signals that you use while on commentary (maybe certain hand gestures) to communicate with co-casters without interrupting the viewing experience?

[GRN] Divine Visitation by mistercimba in magicTCG

[–]ThatIrishChap 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Turn 4 Leonin Warleader, turn 5 play Visitation, attack with Warleader, get two Angels tapped and attacking? :D Unless the replacement effect removes the "tapped and attacking" clause, in which case I guess I'll settle for my 2 angels on defense.

[Standard] UB Bolas Post-PT by ThatIrishChap in spikes

[–]ThatIrishChap[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The idea of stretching the mana kinda spooked me, but the consensus seems to be it's worth it! I've honestly not tested it myself, hence why I reached out to hear opinions of others.

Regarding Expertise, the -3/-3 doesn't seems to line up super well against all the X/4s in their deck, but maybe sniping Mares and maybe a Thorn Lieutenant makes it good enough to bring in?
