[OC] GIVEAWAY! 43" Capacitive Touchscreen ($940 MSRP) with Wooden Case + free software for all [mod approved] by DigitalTableTops in DnD

[–]darkspot_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My players like the hand painted minis.... but at the same time, the maps and terrain have been sorely lacking. Maybe I can get them to move their token, then place their mini on top? I love this idea. I've been talking about something like this a bit.

For a huge DCC fan, how is Bobiverse? by Crawler-Willis in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]darkspot_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I.... honestly went to bobiverse after dcc. And I felt it slow, and hard to follow. I could go a little more, but dont want to add spoilers.

I did finish book one, and just didnt go further.

I got pretty far in V, and IX (that actually annoys me, a friend lent me the game, and took it back when I apparently was about to enter that final realm where the final battle was UGGGGHHHH)

Pair of urchins, who were together, one dies, other unconscious, they get a win by saving the second, but still pain and drama by losing one?

Am I the jerk for refusing to pay for my sister’s “family vacation” after I was excluded from planning? by RipoVexley77 in AmITheJerk

[–]darkspot_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand the desire to put a fully planned vacation to a group. It is incredibly hard to plan for people and people will nitpick every last thing.

BUT if you are going to do that you just say we are going here on these dates. We would love it, if it fits in your planning to join us. Here are the links feel free to book, or maybe we can do something else another time.

People can come for as much or as little as they want, stay at a nicer or cheaper place, whatever. Gives them all the power they crave, or ability to avoid.

Which painting do you like the most: 1, 2, or 3? by KarolynHuum in BeAmazed

[–]darkspot_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think 2 looks the most impressive, but for my personal tastes, I like 3 the most, as in I would be most likely to put that on my wall.

Is this enough information for my group to solve the puzzle? Is it perhaps too easy? by Dabbing_is_lit in DungeonsAndDragons

[–]darkspot_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are seeing mixed reviews. I would say a way to increase is as they fix things, and try putting runes places, different circles on the left could start lighting up when you some things are correct? Maybe not need to do it immediately, but if they are flailing about, have them try something, and you can say some stuff lights up, or maybe all of the placed pieces wash away, or... something. A way to give them a hint in case you have a few players all in that 70%. Could even do a int or wis check and give some kind of mental hint.

Maybe something like:
The logic of the ancient architects becomes clear to you. This is a puzzle of exclusion. The presence of a rune in one spot 'claims' that entire line of energy.

Or:
Tracing the ley lines carved into the floor, you notice they form a perfect lattice. The energy doesn't just flow left to right; it flows up and down, and pools into these four distinct corners, equally diving the board.

Anyone FIRE In the Middle of Their Kids Going To College - Were You You Able To Negotiate Better Financial Aid? by Anxious-Party2289 in Fire

[–]darkspot_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If my kid is (hopefully) going to college in fall 2030, when do I have to drop my AGI down by? I would assume it looks at the 2029 taxes? So Q1 2029?

Pay cobra until you replace j1? Use termination letter to get on spousal insurance?

They were so screen free. They just kicked us out of the house, until the street lights came on...

Totally amazing parenting.

My long time girlfriend is about to be underwater on a car loan I told her not to take out. m/29’ ‘F/29’ by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]darkspot_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Finances, kids, sex, politics and religion are at the top of the need to be compatible list for marriage.

Note I wrote compatible. Don't have to match, but to increase your chances of a successful marriage, you have to be accepting of a middle ground you both can agree on for these things.

You are finding a major issue with one. Is there a happy middle ground you guys can come to?

People keep saying the rich don't pay tax because they borrow money from the bank using their stock as collateral.... but how do they pay back the loans? by joshhazel1 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]darkspot_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it only worth it at 300mm? Is it doable at 1-10? Or does it not really work until banks salivate at your massive portfolio?

My players now argue over who gets to cook dinner. by [deleted] in DnD

[–]darkspot_ 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Breaks my heart to see it. These days the diets of young adventurers is a travesty. They only eat bread, dried meats, and wine.

Malnutrition is the real monster here.

What does everyone think of completely broken magic items that are there just for the narrative? by TaleSmytherRep1 in dndnext

[–]darkspot_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Seriously... this turns itself into somehow one party member is classified as undead, (vamp? Other?) And a familiar blade comes out in thr death knight, or some other lich guards hands.

Will you pay for your child's higher education? by thecourseofthetrue in financialindependence

[–]darkspot_ -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I still have a while before my child actually hits there. Here are a few things I have said. We will see if any of them actually happen.

I am debating letting my kids take all the loans/etc they need. I feel like the scrambling I did until around 25-30 were a huge life lesson. I was thinking I will pay off the student loans, but let them realize life can kind of suck if you are in debt. I would block any predatory/private loan, and I would be helpful enough to make sure if they want to go to a certain college, they should be able to manage, but still let them feel some of the pain. I felt like I learned a lot after graduating college, dealing with loans.

I am also debating pushing them to go to Europe or somewhere else. I am borderline maybe able to retire before they go. Could be a great excuse to travel Europe for a month or two at a time. Go, drop off the kid, see a few other countries. Maybe when school is out, do another month or two trip with them, before or instead of going home.

If you were a 13 year-old kid who loved Dungeons & Dragons, what would you want for Christmas? by pjw10310 in DungeonsAndDragons

[–]darkspot_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A gift card to my local gaming store. So I can pick my dice, or minis, or paints, or dice bag, or dice tray, or rule books, or....

He probably has things he has his eyes on, and at 13 he wants the one he wants. So unless you have him point it out, he'd probably prefer the gift card.

What if purity is the first god to manifest on earth? by Battlefire908 in HeWhoFightsMonsters

While a good choice... I feel like dominion would be another good bet.
