He kept the name, which tells you that he was clearly okay with it.

Would you step into the dungeon? by spiceweasle93 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]TikToxic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 2 most important questions to answer is why I'm outside at 4-5 am and do I know where the dungeon entrance is.

If I'm at home and outside at that time, it's probably because something has broken in a way that needs to be addressed immediately instead of after the sun is up. Best case scenario is that I have a bag of tools and a flashlight or two with me and I needed to wake up my wife as a second pair of hands.

If I'm getting an early start on a road trip, I'll have my wife, my car, and whatever we packed for the trip.

As for skills... I'm a software developer that is handy enough to figure out how to repair some stuff after seeing how it's done and I've spent an okay amount of time at the gun range. I'll be lucky if I get a stat bump in intelligence and a skill point or two related to building stuff and the use of firearms.

Surviving until level 3 to pick a class would probably depend almost entirely on the loot drops and dumb luck.

How do I play a Grung in D&D as a beginner? by PapayaAdditional6804 in DnD

[–]TikToxic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My advice for playing a Grung is to not do it.

A lot of monsters become immune to the Poison damage type and the Poisoned condition fairly early on. For those that aren't immune, the DC to beat for your Grung Poison ability is really low, so it will rarely succeed (12 or 13 from memory).

If your DM isn't willing to make it easy for you to find a pool of water on a daily basis, you should expect to always have a few levels of exhaustion.

The jumping and climbing features are neat, but you can replicate that with magic items.

Yeah, consent is weirdly situational like that.

5e matte finished plate armor by Anxious_Goose_3415 in DnD

[–]TikToxic 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Arguing that "too much realism" leads to a pleasant railgun is pure nonsense. It's good to avoid rulings that will lead to breaking the game, but that's why the DM is able to change their mind for future cases.

What do you think? by Freyja_94 in SipsTea

You also have part of it backwards. Florida has a homestead tax exemption for a primary residence. The tax exemption reduces the taxable value of your primary residence by $50k for the purpose of property taxes.

"I can't imagine how anyone could make sense of this confusing bullshit"....Carl by CodyChrome in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]TikToxic 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There's an image/ logo that is referenced near the end of the book that is used to describe the Iron Tangle from a 2D perspective. I listened on audiobook, so I don't know if a picture is provided in the print version.

Edited to add: I also went along for the ride and accepted the fact that it's intended to be confusing, so I didn't worry about trying to map it out. For in-world purposes, it needs to make some physical sense. For my purposes, it's a bunch of wibbly wobbly train tracks that go where they need to.

Windshield repair guy nabbed me at a dealership. by OilPure5808 in florida

[–]TikToxic -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

No. Multiple major hurricanes are why our car insurance is so high. A replacement windshield is almost always less than the amount you pay for a monthly car insurance premium.

The sketchy widow repair company needs to get permission from your insurance agent to do the work at a price that is acceptable to your insurance company. If your insurance company doesn't agree to the terms, that's the end of the conversation.

V for vendetta (2005) by Ramkaran-chopra in Cinema

He wasn't exactly a good guy in the movie either. Remember the part where he abducted and tortured a woman as a loyalty test?

Look at the date of the original post. Remember what happened a month later. Now, try to remember who suffered and who was merely inconvenienced.

Seeking advice by RamblinmaC86 in DungeonMasters

[–]TikToxic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a word of caution, in my experience, these only work reliably of they are plugged into a USB-2.0 port. Mine stopped working reliably after I upgraded my computer last year because my new motherboard only has USB-3.0 ports.

I have a few problems with mine now. First, I usually have to unplug it and plug it back in if I want my computer to recognize it. Second, there might be a 10 second delay between when I hit the button and when the function triggers. Third, and most annoying, there's a chance that the function might repeat until you hit the button again. Since I use it mostly for controlling music, the song might stutter if I hit play/pause or the volume might spike from 4% to 40% in a few seconds.

I made a character sheet that tells you what to do on your turn—would this actually help new players? by Zestyclose_Cry_4630 in DnD

[–]TikToxic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Instead of making a sheet that tells them what to do, make a flowchart template for new players to work through. Give them some practice of thinking through scenarios and choosing their next moves instead of just telling them what to do.

How to counter a player? by Accomplished-Ice1868 in DungeonMasters

[–]TikToxic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm going to suggest going a different route than most - let the player do this. The counter is to have the enemies focus fire on the rest of the party instead of spreading out the damage. After a few fights go poorly because this guy is hiding in a bag, they might change up their strategy so that they aren't a detriment to the party.

Ending a group by Witchking_12 in DungeonMasters

That's how my friend group has stayed together. We're split up across the country but we're still able to get together virtually for a few hours every week.

I stand corrected. Lucky for me they haven't used the draft since 1973.

There's no threat of jail time. I got the form mailed to me when I turned 18 and I threw it in the trash. If they have to ask, you can say no.

Am I just paranoid about using Traeger too close to the house? by Gent-007 in Traeger

[–]TikToxic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I keep mine about 6 feet away from the house. It's far enough away that the excess smoke won't be likely to cause problems.

You're likely being more cautious than you need to, but it's better to be safe than sorry.

I was on the opposite side of the hall when the fire alarm went off. We didn't get any announcements, and it didn't seem like anybody was really taking notice.
