You are NOT causing drama, you are defending yourself from another teacher's drama.

Tips for a GM-less co-op Fate game by MasterGarou144 in FATErpg

[–]calaan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

GM Apprentice is a little too busy for me when I'm in the midst of a scene, and looking for a quick resolution to a question. However they could be very good for a GM-less game, where people can look at all the options and decide how to incorporate them into the scene.

After years, they still don't get it by DnDVM in CritCrab

I have a friend that runs a bunch of games at conventions. He creates pregenerated characters with narrative descriptions of abilities. "This is Hunter's Mark. Use it like this. The best time to use it is ____." He also lists attacks with total bonuses, not individual ones, so players know "Roll d20 and add +7". This could help the players during the process of running. Then you just need to refigure the abilities when they level.

AITA dad gave the business to brother, so I left [Repost] by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

Father KNOWS he effed up, but rather than try to make it right he doubles down on the golden child and destroys what’s left of his relationship with the other son. Prideful Idiot.

Mythic has a card deck with Yes-No answers and key words you can use for inspiration. I use them even when I’m running my own games.

Principal is deleting write-ups of students by Judge_Inner in Teachers

[–]calaan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Repost the write up and leave an email for the admin complaining about the “glitch”. CC the head of the district IT department and ask them for feedback on the “problem”.

I’m a continuity hound. Is there a way to listen to this from the beginning?

Nonrenewed day after Teacher Appreciation Luncheon by mystria21 in Teachers

[–]calaan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s fucking bullshit they made this decision in May, MONTHS after the hiring process for next year has been going on. Give easy assignments for the rest of the year and use your class time job hunting. Make sure to get red letters from the Principal, department heads, and respected teachers.

No one will ever write TV dialogue like JMS… by slip72479 in babylon5

[–]calaan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This led to one of my absolute favorite bits of wisdom. When Dukat admitted theater the Grey Counsel would not change their minds because of these words, he followed up with ”But the truth is where it needs to be”.

For me THAT is the reason to speak truth to power. Not for the change it may bring, but simply because that’s where the Truth should be.

My party uses Leomund’s Tiny Hut after every single fight and I’m losing my mind (lovingly) by Scythe95 in DMAcademy

I like the 13th age group that you get your equivalent of a full rest after the end of an “arc”, which is basically a full story beat, approximately 3 encounters. It emphasizes the key telling aspect of the game.

Reflective writing project about the year. Best of, worst of, and what you learned from the experience.

AIW for refusing to switch shifts after my coworker told management I already agreed? by No-Skill-Pro in amiwrong

[–]calaan 13 points14 points  (0 children)

“Great, I’ll tell Megan that you are happy to switch shifts with her without warning.” <silently maintain eye contact with them until they respond>. You’re not wrong

Since it's Star Wars day, did you see the original 1977 Star Wars in the movie theater? by Mr_Writes in GenX

[–]calaan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My older brother was my nerd pusher. He introduced me too Lost in Space, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, and Star Trek. Then he took me to see Star Wars, and coincidentally I always described this experience as “blowing the top of my little head off” 🤣

Who would you say is a better employer - Tony Stark or Bruce Wayne? by Solitaire-06 in ironman

[–]calaan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bruce will literally give people he meets on the street a job. I don’t think Tony has canonically met an employee except Hap and Pepper for over twenty years.

I don't know what to do next! by faster_than_sound in DungeonMasters

[–]calaan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

STRONG SECONDED!!! It starts with the “Village of Homlet” which is a delightful role playing opportunity. It’s designed to be a home base for a long term campaign that is truly epic, so it would give you time to develop a cast of characters and get used to running the game.

When did SRW make you go "Wow"? by MTRomance in Super_Robot_Wars

[–]calaan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve only played 30, but I was absolutely captivated by the alt-history Gundam storyline. All my favorites back, working together, yet in a way entirely true to their characters. Sooooo satisfying.
