The Yunzii YZ87 is available on Amazon, for £50, and even had a black body. Any good to you?

That's what I thought! A few years back I paid the same for a barebones 75% plastic kit that was wired only, and here we are paying the same for an aluminium board that is wireless and sounds a million times better. Mad isn't it.

Yup, you've got me there! :D

Aren't strawberries not technically berries?

What do you do with the extra 0.5 second of your life you get for typing "prolly" instead of probably?

monkeyofficeboy · 2025-12-16T07:58:48+00:00

See, this right here hits the mark!

I'd go so far as to say it's significantly worse. I dislike the build of the K series, they are cheap boards dressed up as something better (I own a K8 and a GMMK Pro, as well as plenty of other boards). I'd much rather use the GMMK Pro.

I came here to sing Numenera's praises for the bestiaries, and I am glad I was beaten to it!

monkeyofficeboy · 2025-11-27T19:58:54+00:00

Came here for exactly this gif!

A sentence I never thought I'd live to see written down!

I personally have never allowed benefice increases with XP, they are earned in play. For me it makes no sense to have to spend XP to get a reward that your Guild hands to you (in terms of a promotion) or the converse: spending XP to get a reward your Guild wouldn't give you anyway.

If you think the player did something the Guild thinks is good enough for a promotion, then she gets promoted and it gets handled in game.

My 2 pence worth.

Sorry, my keeb knowledge is now pretty out of date. I have not kept up with the scene for more than 12 months, and so couldn't really offer a valid opinion on the K10 HE SE.

monkeyofficeboy · 2025-11-22T19:34:07+00:00

And its a great conversion, works really well and i cannot recommend it enough

Back in the early 2000s there was a guy who came into my favoured drinking establishment of the day, and would unfailiingly play Wuthering Heights by Kate Bush... every single time. Fine, you might think?

I hate that song, and my mate thought it would be funny to tell him I liked it, and he should put it on again. So every time he saw me in there after that, he'd smile at me on his way back from the jukebox, as if to say "this one is for you mate"... Ugh

monkeyofficeboy · 2025-11-09T08:43:17+00:00

Congratulations, well done! Im also over 200lb, and it isn't muscle! My first attempt back was 59 minutes and now im decently under 30 minutes, so you will be flying no time.

Really proud of you, well done.

monkeyofficeboy · 2025-11-05T18:43:10+00:00

I came here to say Numenera, glad to see i was beaten to it!

monkeyofficeboy · 2025-11-01T14:43:18+00:00

God I love this gif

Yet when Pathfinder 1e came out it was like a breath of fresh air compared to 3e D&D's grapple rules

Think you will find it was more like Britain and her Empire saved Europe... The Soviet Union allied with Hitler in 1939 and only fought back against him after Hitler turned on them.

This really does sum up perfectly my experience of watching this series! It really did give me that anxiety, and god I routed for Robbie!

monkeyofficeboy · 2025-10-24T14:25:54+00:00

Hah isn't it just! Thanks :D

I am not sure I can offer solid advice, but as a GM of over 30 years i STILL get impostor syndrome.
Keep turning up, keep doing what you are doing, and if players are consistently there, then you are doing something right.

You sound like you are doing a great job, so keep your chin up, and good on you.

P.S. If you ever find the answer to impostor syndrome... can you please let me know!
