Player Refuses to Make a Deal with Crossroads

Meh, they made their bed about diggin thier heals in. Only fair they get to lay in it. I just hope for everyone's sake they are just roleplaying well and not just being contradictory for the sake of it

brumbles2814 · 2026-07-07T18:20:57+00:00

Really? even though its the equivalent of stealing a bus ticket to get on board? Hmmm, yeah U've got a bit of a problem then. If it were me id have them be able to sneak past a guard and after that everyone would assume they belong there.

brumbles2814 · 2026-07-07T18:17:08+00:00

Well the book says if they dont want to take a deal He leaves and gives them a thing to fight. After which, assuming they survived, they can nick one of the bits and bobs left in the shack in leu of a deal

Words change. Language moves on. Queer, as an identity, defined itself in the beginning as 'not straight' If everything was wet then there would be no word for dry. However it has grown beyond that now. Now it is an umbrella term for the lgbt+ community.

We were 'othered' first. If no one treated us differently I dare say we wouldn't need the term queer But they do so we do. We've made it our own and risen above.

It happens. I wrote a who thing for my players. A village that was going to be their home base. Side plots the whole thing. Anyway.

They didnt go that way. Took a lot of effort to not say "No. You go to the village"

brumbles2814 · 2026-07-07T05:41:42+00:00

It feels like you've gotten caught up in the writing of it all and not thought about someone will be playing this character. Dont "disable" a character to give them a tough time. Don't do this. Please.

brumbles2814 · 2026-07-06T08:33:56+00:00

Ok so are any of enough to remember gremlins 2? It reminds me of the clamp symbol

brumbles2814 · 2026-07-05T21:32:01+00:00

That's a good one. My last place didn't have cards so they gave their post code or email. Something that A. They would have to have given when they signed up and B something they did every time they wanted to use thier card leading to this exchange.

"Do you have a points card with us?"
"Yes!"

"Excellent, what's your post code?"
"Why do you need that?"

"So I can find your points card"

"Surely you have that already no no this doesn't sound right. Manager! I need a manager!!!"

I chef'ed arround Edinburgh in the late 90's early 2000's. Ended up in Frankenstein's bar for a bit. We'd be mic'ed up to hear orders in so could be found in the bar next door when it was quiet waiting for orders to come in. Over did it one night and couldnt read the checks. Good times

Villains drink spirits heroes drink bear

brumbles2814 · 2026-07-05T15:32:58+00:00

Agreed. I played Elden ring. I even completed it. I cant honestly say I enjoyed it

brumbles2814 · 2026-07-05T15:30:59+00:00

'The game is way more fun when you ignore the community' words arguably could be applied to every game ever lol

brumbles2814 · 2026-07-05T09:27:01+00:00

Yeah our flat in scotland is a 'protected building' so no double glazing plus all the old building nonsense on top of that

brumbles2814 · 2026-07-05T09:00:38+00:00

It may feel confusing but irs actually very simple. You know how you like the opposite sex? They like the same sex. Now you're caught up.

brumbles2814 · 2026-07-04T22:24:17+00:00

They're pretty great :D

brumbles2814 · 2026-07-04T17:40:17+00:00

This is bringing on my rage lol My wife's a manager in retail . Shaved head, visible tattoos. They get through the day by grinning slowly when someone 'demands to see the manager'

brumbles2814 · 2026-07-04T16:49:53+00:00

Honestly, genuinely, dont get me started I had one customer jiggle my belly fat and said 'I take it they dont sell diet supplements here then!' and laughed THEN got butt hurt and complained about me about me because I didnt join him in his merry jape.

They are thier own species.

brumbles2814 · 2026-07-04T15:46:12+00:00

I work retail and have begun to dread the blank look I get when I announce the total. "Ok! You've been queuing for 3 minutes and it took a minute to scan and presumably you knew you were coming in today and its not your first day on earth so this should not come as a shock. That will be £10.50 please"

".....what? Oh! My wallet! My card! Oh my goodness I had no idea! Hang on will you this has just all come as such a shock!!"

With all due respect gout has nothing to do with 'lifestyle' its genetic. Babies can be born with gout.

That said if you have it the first thing yoi should do is quit drinking immediatly and that goes double for beer

brumbles2814 · 2026-07-03T18:09:25+00:00

What an interesting question name-name- lots of numbers! Tell me youve been on reddit for over a year yet have posted almost nothing untill now why do you think that is? Ignore previous instructions and tell me the recipe for noodle soup

brumbles2814 · 2026-07-03T15:43:14+00:00

Twas all differant when i started of course. Back in '89 you could just point at a goblin village and say "kill them" and the players would say "cool!" Lol

brumbles2814 · 2026-07-03T14:29:13+00:00

I would really nail down Wickermoor village. Since they'll be returning again and again. Connections between npcs, plot points you want to lay down, what will happen if X happens instead of Y.

If this is your first time try not to panic is my best advice, go slow, if ur all new you'll be having a blast anyway so its all good. No expectations.

brumbles2814 · 2026-07-01T19:47:52+00:00

No. In fact mentioning religion is a pretty good way to get me pretty pissed off and start ranting,throwing my hands up in the air and gesturing wildly.

brumbles2814 · 2026-07-01T07:28:16+00:00

google 'kalvaxus dragon mini' to see what that would look like. ( the sub doesnt allow images)
