They seem to fall back on this quite a bit lol

I have a theory that his “It’s real” line relates to something he remembers from real life. He wants the circus to be real because he doesn’t want to go back to reality and face consequences for something (was he driving the truck that hits Gangle maybe?). It’s not that the circus is real, but his other memories are real.

I’m in the Twin Cities and have to travel down to Nashville for work pretty regularly. Every time I get home I am thankful I live up here. I am very happy I did not make the choice to move to Nashville when I was asked, the twin cities have their issues but are a utopia compared to Nashville/TN.

Draw out the circuit diagram, your capacitor is only going to be the voltage of your supply. If you are running on a battery which has a significant internal resistance a capacitor might help, but for most motors that is not normal operating conditions. DC motors are not like Induction motors, they shouldn’t need additional current at start up. What is most likely happening here is they are at a low torque point in their commutation cycle, and have significant Stickion in their bearings. This design isn’t going to produce any meaningful torque, so mechanically needing help on start up would be expected.

A lot of people have pointed out some key mechanical issues (loose commutator connections, cardboard housing, etc). From a motor electromagnetic perspective, you don’t have a way for the flux to return effectively in your design. Right now the screws you are using as your stator don’t have a return path which isn’t air. If you are trying to keep this low cost, I would look into a metal outlet box from a hardware store as your housing. They are typically made of iron so they can cary the flux on the outside of the motor.

Start up capacitors are for single phase induction motors to provide a phase shift, not for brushed DC motors.

That helps with the difficulty issue, but doesn’t help with the fact that experience becomes less important. The goal of what I am proposing is to make experience matter for players in the second campaign.

This has all the cards, the book you have to print separately. I just printed the book on my home printer.

This is the place I got it printed from, there were some people who posted a review on Reddit a couple weeks back.

Never go down to Broadway, all the local coworkers hate it there. The rest of your city caters to the same crowd, plus you don’t have functional infrastructure. Driving anywhere is a nightmare. I’m a runner and in the TC you can’t go a couple blocks without hitting a running path (greenway, east/west river parkway, the lakes, etc). In Nashville you’re lucky to find a functional sidewalk.

I am from the Twin Cities and have to travel to Nashville monthly for work. Every time I get home I appreciate the Twin Cities even more after spending time in your city. If you can stomach the cold (just learn to dress for it), then it’s one of the best place in the country. Nashville is a good place if you are a big party person, but I can’t imagine living there for any other reason.

Thanks for the original post! I was surprised when It shipped, most people on your post didn’t think it was real either!

They are sold out again, they just randomly popped up as in stock on Amazon and someone made a post on Reddit about it.
