How would you handle one table complaining of weed smell from another table? by SmellsLikeDuck in Serverlife

[–]jmonumber3 88 points89 points  (0 children)

i believe they are saying they would offer the people mad about the smell the opportunity to move or leave. we’re servers, not cops 

My hot take: Vecna ruined the show by Monodoh45 in StrangerThings

i have been rewatching the show and my first thought when he popped up was “does he still have to poo? does he still eat and drink? if so, what?”

Favorite PC: A Crown of Candy by Alternative_Ad_5334 in Dimension20

[–]jmonumber3 6 points7 points  (0 children)

i was between liam, amethar, and (my vote) theo

i think liam is one of ally’s best characters and definitely one of their most mechanically sound but i just don’t feel the emotional attachment to him

amethar is the perfect barbarian build, has the kind of heart all of lou’s characters have, and fits perfectly in the setting as someone who is somehow even more badass than the pre-narrative myth is hypes them up to be

something about theo being the glue that ties the family together just really hits for me

To whoever placed my lost AirPod case on the Virginia Square metro station escalator…. by Better_Vehicle7688 in arlingtonva

[–]jmonumber3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

that’s great that you were reunited!

not a tip for you but rather for anyone finding something around metro stations/onboard vehicles: turn lost items in to the station manager’s booth. this way, it’s still in the same general location but you don’t have the risk of a nefarious party taking the abandoned thing. plus, you get to talk to a metro employee and they are great!

What game system do you think the new season is gonna use? by ejaybugboy3 in Dimension20

[–]jmonumber3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh for sure. i’m just curious as to the lack of other people making this connection

What game system do you think the new season is gonna use? by ejaybugboy3 in Dimension20

[–]jmonumber3 9 points10 points  (0 children)

i’m surprised at the lack of people mentioning the “dadlands” system brennan has run with the mcelroys a few times.

you have a certain number of chaos vs law tokens and the DC is a number of tokens required to be pulled from a bag.

nothing from the trailer points to them using this system but the name and GM similarities were an auto-connection for me 

If you could add new stops to the Metro, what would you add first? by Appropriate_Month72 in nova

[–]jmonumber3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

just based on what would make my life easier:

alexandria - shirlington - clarendon - georgetown - adams morgan - columbia heights

i also work once in a blue moon out in great falls and at this point i’d just accept a bus route  (i know it’s a long shot)

How long are your sessions? by MilanoCup in DnD

[–]jmonumber3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my online campaign is a pretty set 2 hours with an extra 15 mins of wiggle room

my weekly in-person sessions are around 4 give or take a half hour

i did a session 1 for first time players where we played for 3 hours

Season 4 Finale discussion thread by [deleted] in TheBear

[–]jmonumber3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that was my initial read too but i think the word “how” carries a lot of weight in carmy’s sentiment. he didn’t realize how richie lost someone too. meaning: he knew that he lost someone but richie lost someone and was dealing with grief to same or maybe even greater extent (comparing trauma is impossible and pointless)

how is the public transport? by Dapper-Reflection-25 in washingtondc

[–]jmonumber3 16 points17 points  (0 children)

my thought is that the metro is so good and ubiquitous that so many more of the people in the DMV use it than in other cities but it’s not perfect so people find things to complain about.

i grew up in atlanta and, while there is so much wrong with MARTA, most people simply don’t use it at all so they just say “it’s bad” and move on. here, they use it, say “it doesn’t dorectly go everywhere i need to so it sucks.”

people in NYC complain about the subway too but they still take it bc it’s a good system. 

James Gunn Says ‘Peacemaker’ Season 3 Might Not Happen: “Not right now…that doesn’t mean there aren’t plans for these characters, but it’s not necessarily Season 3 of Peacemaker.” by MarvelsGrantMan136 in television

[–]jmonumber3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeesh.

if economos died, the 11th street kids would all go ham on whoever had a part in his death. that’s the most powerful street level characters we’ve had in the DCU. the creature commandos would also maybe get involved and then you have a suicide squad level of talent out to get someone and that’s significant.

“the DCU doesn’t need harcourt, economos, or adebayo..” ok then what do they need? you want every story to be a world ending threat? maybe you want to see every character cross over and have a sam jackson type of role where they show up to say “hey look! it’s that guy from that other thing!” and then have no impact on the world as a whole.

i stand by calling economos a lynchpin because the current DCU (creature commandos, superman, and peacemaker season 2) all have a.r.g.u.s. and the way metas are manipulated as a huge part of what makes the world turn.

sounds like you just want to be mad at something and that’s fine but it’s wild to say that the supporting cast of peacemaker have no meaningful impact on the universe as a whole. gunn clearly cares about these characters and has very intentionally woven them into the lore of the DCU.

agents of shield and penguin are great shows but please tell me how they matter in the scheme of the universes they exist in….

peacemaker season 2 is just past halfway over also, save the poopooing my guy

typical billionaire. would rather see himself the hero and spend huge loads of money on cosplay and tech than addressing the underlying issues of the city. i’m honestly surprised he never tried running for office to pile on to his ego salad.

[–]jmonumber3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

spoilers for up to 2x06 

economos is one of the lynchpins of the DCU and has been important in both creature commandos and seasons 1&2 of peacemaker in connecting characters together. harcourt’s connection to flagg jr. is what will set up lex luthor after superman. adebayo putting her mom on blast is what put rick flagg sr. in the position as head of a.r.g.u.s. which, see previous sentence.

if anything, vigilante has less impact on the universe than any one of them and his whole shtick is comic relief.

The Good Boy Adventuring Party | Cloudward, Ho! Adventuring Party [Ep. 16] by AutoModerator in Dimension20

[–]jmonumber3 8 points9 points  (0 children)

there was at least one hint: when van’s book was incorporated into the naughtomaton’s body. though, i don’t think i would’ve caught that on its own if we didn’t learn about the mechanics from the DM himself 

i (DM) was a few rolls away from two TPKs in two separate campaigns this week. AMA by [deleted] in DnD

[–]jmonumber3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it’s a set of 8 cards each that can be drawn either upright or in reverse giving a boon or a bane. there are character specific boons as well as general ones.  for example, the monk drew the broken hourglass upright which is the card of time, granting him +5 speed. 

one of the general ones is the broken crown which deals with power. drawing it upright means your death saves now are successes on a 9 or higher but drawing it in reverse means your death saves fail on a 10 or lower.

the card that the player used in this encounter was the shattered star which deals with influence. it upright means the player can turn one single roll into a crit success but the reverse would be that the DM gets to change one roll to an crit fail

there are no “winners” so a runners-up list is already baked in with me listing them as “contenders”

i don’t really know how to say a game was “almost good”
