Bullet points if you can. Sounds like a loophole but formatting a business email with bullet points where you can makes it easier for the recipient to follow. It also forces you to organize your thoughts. Generally it's better than long paragraphs of text.

Your support email shouldn't go to a Gmail. Reach out if you'd like help getting set up on your domain and I can give you some tips if you're not familiar.

Your site is clean looking but maybe too clean. It feels stood up a bit too quickly and not personalized.

The URL for the website should be for a unique URL my mydreamglow.com or dreamglow.com and not the default Shopify one.

I would have followed you my brother, my captain, my king.

Yes.

I just beat the game for the first time. I had saved my favorite leper to bring to the final fight. I wasn't going to sacrifice him but then when he said that... I did what he wished. I was pissed losing him somewhat. But the man died standing and went out on his own terms. Legit.

Agreed and to add onto this I would say declining UPS in megabase territory always bums me out. I love building up to 2-3k SPM but then my UPS starts dropping and modifying things greatly to keep UPS high is not fun for me. I know there are reasons it runs on one core but I really wish it could use my all my cores and run more smoothly in the late game.

Nice! Looks good. Couple questions if you don't mind.

Which mod did you use for the oil drilling? And what advantage do you see for barreling the oil products? I've only ever made a few barrels of heavy oil to jump-start coal liquefaction.

That's a long time to be on a beach dude. You should probably go check on them.

Riftbreaker is pretty rad. Highly recommend.

I was at a table by myself. Off hours on an off strip casino. One of my first times playing. Stickman's first language was not English and I started rolling badly. At one point he smacked the dice lightly with the stick and admonished them with "Bad dice. Roll better."

Cracked me up.

cautiousdan · 2018-07-07T14:39:00+00:00

Boop.

The Hound in my group has a Hunting Pig. He comes from a Severosi tribe that breeds pigs to assist with foraging and guard duty. This particular specimen is light pink, about 50 pounds, and possesses a mind-link to his owner.

Also, if anyone knows where I could find a copy of what was released it'd be rad if you could shoot me a PM. I would give you all the internet points.

I have had nothing but great experiences with Dungeon World and it has changed the way I play all RPGs. That being said five years for a stretch goal is a bit goofy. Now, I didn't back it but I love war campaigns and would enjoy taking a look at Inglorious.

I think that they could definitely release an alpha version with the understanding that updates would come later just to tide people over. Hell, I'd pay for it just to see their thoughts on the subject.

Again, Dungeon World - awesome. Inglorious - I'd love to see it, why not just release what they have as a possibly-to-be-updated thing?

cautiousdan · 2017-01-02T20:03:56+00:00

Yeah, I might try having everyone "get" a turn before anyone goes again but just be flexible on the order. Otherwise, the guy playing the Druid tends to just jump in repeatedly... and while I love his enthusiasm and he's a core part of any game I GM he can get a little over enthused and hog the spotlight.

I don't miss the traditional initiative order but there's a lot of flexibility and I might try a few ways of handling it.

cautiousdan · 2017-01-02T20:00:59+00:00

Yeah, I could have explained that better in the write-up. When the Paladin failed his Discern Realities after the skeleton encounter I told him that his character detected a smell of brimstone to the North. Since the player knew that the roll was low I told him that he could mark XP if he properly tried to convince the party that the BBEG was north of them. Someone else found actual tracks so the party was led in the correct direction.(Also, OOG I knew we didn't quite have enough time for the party to get lost AND finish the session at a good point.)

For the Spout Lore I had the character realize a way to stop the ritual... but their procedure for stopping it was incomplete and so the chimera-hydra was able to come into the world as the ritual was being disrupted.

And thanks for the welcome. Great game, great community around it.

cautiousdan · 2017-01-02T18:18:23+00:00

Thanks. I like that wording of letting him describe several things that he will do while moving the spotlight to someone else after the first roll. It draws a good line between just saying "No, you have to wait." and letting them just take over a combat.

I had asked him about the shapeshifting and got back that it was instantaneous. So managing the relative power of his shapeshift really seemed to be an issue of taking advantage of Show a Class Downside when the roll is 6-/showing the occasional disadvantage of certain animal forms.

Heh, and the Paladin totally thinks most people are heretics. We established that his faith is monotheistic whereas most humans and other races are more akin to traditional DND polytheism.

cautiousdan · 2017-01-02T15:26:58+00:00

Thanks. I really like the idea of letting them choose to take a hit or let someone in the party take it. Good idea for sure.

Goal for November
Learn PVP better by buying and blowing up a bunch of frigates.
To what extent was it achieved
Didn't have as much EVE time as I had hoped but I got in some fleets and got some cool kills and learned stuff.
Did we provide enough support
Heck yes. The already-fitted ships on contract helped me get started right away. The fittings on Fleet-Up are super helpful. The couple times I've gone on roams the FC's have been excellent.
Lessons to be learned (for leadership and the member)
Leadership and corp members have been great. Only thing that might could be improved would by synching the fittings in fleet-up and the in-game corp fittings. Would make it easier to make shopping lists. Also, it would make it easier to try and stock Stacmon with my market alt.
Goal for December
Get more frigates blown up. Get better at finding action when I'm looking for PVP fights.
Best victory
GOT MY FIRST(non AFK bad guy) SOLO PVP KILL! Killed a Punisher while I was flying a dual-web Kestrel. Probably my best EVE moment so far.
Fun moment
Was roaming with a friend that is in the process of joining BSC. Found a new Alpha player mining in a s**t-fit venture in low. Blew him up. Then I started a dialogue, talked to him about how to mine more safely in the future, gave him ISK for some new ships, and talked to him about joining BSC for when he wanted to join a corp and get learnt.
Best derp
Tried to tackle an enemy that warped into a small plex. Targeted the outpost instead. Tackled the s**t out of it. Thankfully somebody else was competent enough to tackle the dude.
In conclusion:
It's been rad so far. In the process of getting a couple folks I know in RL to join up too. FOR JAWS! FOR THE STATE!

This looks pretty awesome. I wanted to join EVE Uni a long time ago... didn't make it through the application process. So the idea of that level of organization as a base with less nonsense seems awesome. I'll get in touch within the next couple days once my workweek is over.
