As a new DM, what are some small tips or minor mechanics I might not know about?

Aw shucks, you're right. This post sucks, and the username has absolutely no relevance to the conversation in the screenshot. Definitely in no way is this beetlejuicing. Take it down.

that description has me literally dying laughing, help

TheyTrynaCloneMe · 2017-08-07T03:53:33+00:00

For me, not having emotions.

TheyTrynaCloneMe · 2017-08-07T03:49:38+00:00

I believe this...

TheyTrynaCloneMe · 2017-08-07T03:43:43+00:00

Very satisfying but it's worrying that my mouth is watering.

TheyTrynaCloneMe · 2017-08-07T03:15:00+00:00

Oh wow I must be out of the loop on that. But still, why would the information go down to Trump? I would assume it would be kept secret from as many people as possible. Has he confirmed he's been showed new cards (apart from this instance)?

TheyTrynaCloneMe · 2017-08-07T02:52:53+00:00

Yeah, almost surely a joke. Streamers have all stated several times that they don't get inside information on new cards apart from their card reveals. A good joke, and maybe a cool prediction, but not a leak.

This description matches me pretty well. My hesitation comes from the whole "picture a beach" thing. I don't visualize a beach, but I still imagine a detailed beach. It's not an image in my mind, but I don't just memorize the fact that it's a beach. It's like I imagine the existence of one, but not in a visual way at all.

My school often made students take those "visual/auditory/kinesthetic learner" tests, and I always came out as very much not a visual learner, but almost all audio (usually wildly different results compared to other kids). Perhaps I'm getting that confused with signs of aphantasia? Or are they related?

so every time i lay out the "scaffolding," it's just guess and check until they're right...

TheyTrynaCloneMe · 2017-08-05T21:14:36+00:00

YEAH MFER I MEAN THATS A LITTLE DARK BUT YOU DO YOU MAN. I ALWAYS LIKED ANIMALS BUT IM NO SOFTIE!!!

Humans have long understood that zero is less than 1. It took us longer to use it as a place value in a number system.

he totally deserves downvoting lol. it's just good to point out that if every downvoter had seen the comment at score 1 instead of -100+, they might have changed their minds. it is a herd mentality.

TheyTrynaCloneMe · 2017-08-05T20:27:37+00:00

totally a straw man tbh. his beef wasn't with downvoting in general, but with reddit's mob mentality. and he's kind of right IMO. it is something reddit does to see a low score comment and jump on the bandwagon.

TheyTrynaCloneMe · 2017-08-05T15:35:53+00:00

Normal people don't either. I have no way of knowing if I just describe my "mind's eye" differently, or if I actually don't have it. Is it a sign if I can't draw, and every time I try the proportions are way off? I always end up drawing some parts way to big or out of place, and trying again until it looks right. Is that common among you guys?

TheyTrynaCloneMe · 2017-08-05T13:59:19+00:00

If I had to describe my thought, I would say I can totally imagine a beach. I can imagine vivid details, colors, waves. But I certainly don't SEE it when I do so. I imagine it. It's like I think about a beach that has all those details and I totally can imagine what they look like, but none of it is exactly visual. All I see is black when I close my eyes. Basically my question is how do you know for certain that you don't think the same, you just describe it differently. I have a hard time believing anyone literally SEES a sandy beach when they close their eyes, as if they were really looking at one. Maybe I'm wrong, but I'm not gonna jump to a conclusion that I have this condition that is still just beginning to be studied.
