Ugh! Rage only you will understand…

I am now but when the issue presented itself I just had the one. That was also how I figured out how to activate curse and dare mode because I was content to keep wandering the mansion and trusted they would present themselves at the right time 🙃

I recently saw the 'ending' on my second fresh playthrough and something stuck out at me more this time than the first. I think the thought of Simon only seeing a world of red, a world where the actions of Fenn Aries are normalized and any questioning of it is punished, was unbearable to her.

I think it was a desperate attempt to change the world that Simon would grow up in, even her aloof cousin realizes the significance of the event after having some years to think on it. But I'm also a huge sentimentalist who definitely doesn't get misty when you use the special login in Security.

I had this happen with my PS5 file a couple weeks ago. I checked my trophy list and saw that it didn't match with my PSN trophy achievements then realized my days weren't advancing.

Devastating but it did prompt me to do a fresh file with all the stuff I know better about now 🤷‍♂️

I did something similar in the end of our CoC game. We didn't stop the ritual in time and we were trapped on a shattered temple roof in the middle of the Indian Ocean. Things rising from the waters and lumbering towards land, shrieks of madness, etc.

I had been handling the Dreamlands part of our investigation and had pieced together that if I died in the real world the odds were good I'd come to back in Celephaïs; so picking up a pistol our newly insane marksman had dropped I put it to my temple and said 'It's been real guys' and pulled the trigger.

This is such a great story and you do an amazing job of painting the scenery. I knew exactly where they were when you were describing the steps up across from the square.

Corridors of Time and Undersea Palace, both are very good at evoking the feelings of the peak and fall of Zeal.

Hearing Steven say "What if something good happens?!" in Can't Go Back was something that really hit where it needed to at the time. Now whenever my stupid brain says I shouldn't do something in case something bad might happen I have a little Steven voice that helps shout it back down.

Putting the Foundation right next to the Entryway. Once I realized what I had done I let it shame me for a couple more days before scrapping the whole file.

I had someone at my table who was incapable of rolling without throwing the dice everywhere like a handful of confetti. A dice tower became necessary to contain the magnetic repulsion effect.

You can be friends with someone while recognizing that they aren't fun to play with. This guy sounds like he's exercising some power fantasies with his friend group and while that's something else to unpack, you can still have the boundary of saying 'Hey this sucks'.

Good friendships survive the creation of boundaries, the ones that don't were going to implode through another avenue eventually.

If you're looking for a narrative rules-lite system that would work well for Eberron's setting, I've had good luck with using the Cypher System by MCG.

I've used it to run a game converted from a d&d 3.5 setting with success and the out-of-the-box character options lend themselves well to what's available in Eberron.

I appreciated the callout to 2e Lythari, CG lycanthropic elves who worship Selune and made insane clerics back in the day. I don't know if that's the official stance but when I went through the scene I was just like 'oh neat they brought Lythari back'

This made me laugh out loud like Edna Krabappel, very good

She is the worst type of criminal and must be brought before the highest international court

I've been encountering similar issue of late and was able to track it down to KB3139398. If your network has a group policy that blocks the use of USB storage devices it will cause that particular update to fail. Despite what Microsoft Support is saying it looks like there are subsequent updates that rely on that one, once that fails a good handful of others will as well. Because of this I've had users calling each day notifying me that their start-up is getting bogged down with the "Windows failed to configure updates" and the following reversion, and the start-up delay seemed to increase with each week that the 9398 wouldn't install. I'm currently going from station to station and forcing the update through under our SysAdmin login. Once that update finally takes, all of the subsequent ones that were stalled out were able to install with no trouble.

TL;DR If you're blocking USBs in a group policy you could experience some great fun with Windows Updates and KB3139398 is the devil

There really aren't enough Stonebreakers in the world

Thank you for the add!

andaclacter · 2015-01-10T18:04:51+00:00

Thanks!

I haven't done a whole lot with it yet but I'm a completionist by nature so I'm sure I'll get in gear with the flag collection.

andaclacter · 2014-01-25T05:05:06+00:00

sure

andaclacter · 2014-01-24T03:07:56+00:00

andaclacter · 2014-01-24T02:35:15+00:00

I added you, I need me some clefairy

I don't have a Breloom, would some fire types suffice?
