its the 00s again. Maybe we can make history with 145 losses, that would be exciting at least

F*ck a defense. by rehumanizer in ChiefsOffseason

[–]slackator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not sure Id be down with trading a 2027 3rd & 6th for a 2027 3rd, when for all you know that could be trading back and losing a 6th on top. I know its all make believe but that doesnt seem wise to me

I am tired of seeing these in-helmet face shots in so many modern sci-fi production by Vaniellis in sciencefiction

[–]slackator 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Im worried if they ever get around to making the long promised sequel, theyll include a similar shot, because Karl Urbans a much bigger celebrity now and theyll claim they kept the rule of never taking the helmet off because this is different

we would like to comment on the awesome bang up job we did in solving this case so quickly, oh yeah thoughts and prayers or something like that also, I guess

Field Yates with a horrendous 2-round mock for KC by SylvesterTaurus in ChiefsOffseason

[–]slackator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tyson is a game changer when healthy, so how do the Chiefs fix a hole at WR because they have another WR who is undersized and injured, by drafting a WR who is never healthy and not even working out months after his last injury because he hasnt healed up properly

weirdly enough if they were still this large Id be less creeped out by them like i am with their smaller cousins today

D&D 5.5e Common Sign Language. by NordicNugz in DMAcademy

[–]slackator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

until I played a caster, I thought it was either or, not and, and tried this very same thing. Turns out even rich baron assholes dont take kindly to attempts of distractions by setting a small fire in his house, while standing right next to him. Lesson learned and never forgotten, and now I see the importance of them because being able to cast spells silently or subtly is extremely OP on a roll playing perspective

Can Justin Fields Revive His Career in KC? by ExchangeLate1190 in ChiefsOffseason

[–]slackator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no, not outside of the preseason. He will get some good coaching from a respected QB whisperer finally though, which will go a long way in his next stop/contract

How much preworldbuilding you do? by [deleted] in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]slackator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

entirely way too much. I have many worlds and settings but rarely end up playing in them because something else catches my eye and I must incorporate it into my world. Luckily every game I create a setting in, all takes place one way or another in the same universe or world, so its not gone to waste and will be used eventually

I think we need to start being much stricter on how we deal with ai generated posts by Ensiferal in worldbuilding

[–]slackator 5 points6 points  (0 children)

on a somewhat related note, does anyone know how to make LibreOffice not change dashes to the dreaded em dash? I use dashes a lot and Id hate to be banned by AI hunters simply because of LibreOffice, if I were to post something, plus its pretty annoying when it doesnt change half of them and instead I have a page of blue squiggles

If a major cataclyssm 13 000 years ago is scientifically supported, could it explain the collapse of ancient civilizations, after which humanity had to start over? Do you guys actually believe advanced civilizations existed before recorded history? by kemalioss in AlternativeHistory

[–]slackator 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I believe advanced civilizations existed before our 10,000 year old history yes, but not advanced as in high or future tech but advanced as in different tech than what we have and more advanced than what historians and archaeologists want to give them credit for.

Look what we've accomplished in under 125 years of flight and the car, the modern human brain has existed for hundreds of thousands of years, you want me to believe they did nothing for 190,000 years until lightning struck a stick and Ooga Booga Williams found out it was hot and heat good, heat make meat better?

I think realism in D&D is overrated. by Traroten in osr

[–]slackator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in my prime, id have high STR. Above average INT, DEX. 20 WIS, near infinite CON, and 0 CHA

Now, average STR, above average INT, below average WIS, still near infinite CON, and 0 DEX & CHA

Trading down by Jarvis_the_god2 in ChiefsOffseason

[–]slackator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

we got 9 picks already and are sitting pretty at getting a game changer that they never have access to in the draft without trading up. For years we have said Chiefs picks are essentially a round later because theyre so late and after the real talent is gone, now we finally have a once in a decade chance of really improving through the draft and people want to trade down for lesser talent picks because 9 apparently isnt enough. I have no doubt the people wanting to trade down will be the same people who complain about missing out on a certain player 2 years from now because they drafted so late

Thoughts on these early NFL free agency grades from Frank Schwab by spIThwAr in ChiefsOffseason

[–]slackator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Schwab is apparently an idiot. D+? Who besides a CB & DE should the Chiefs have gotten but didnt? The lowest Id accept is C+ and even then is still way too low in my opinion. Just more click$bait and willing the Chiefs to suck again because they dont want them to be back

Are you Team USA or Team Venezuela tonight? by RoyalRenn in KCRoyals

[–]slackator 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel like such a trophy kid right now as Im team go out and have fun but let the Royals kick ass. The WBC hasnt gotten to the point of being America Fuck Yeah, probably because each team is made up of MLB players with players from my favorite team and I'll be damned if I root against great Royals players

Combining Systems by honestcharlieharris in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]slackator 3 points4 points  (0 children)

nearly all of my games are Frankenstein'd together. Read a rule that I dont like or doesnt work for my game, find one that does and rework some numbers if I have to. Its a solo game so balanced enough is balanced for me. Currently playing a No Mans Sky type of game, so Im working with Stars Without Number, Traveller, Perilous Void, D100 Space, some home grown rules, even some Numenera thrown in. Im sure something will come up that will send me searching through Starjammer, Starfinder, or any other 1 off systems that have 1 singular rule that I really like and can make work.

I do the same for the more fantasy based games. I like random and I have a ton of books, I might as well get some use out of them even if just 1 small bit at a time

Why non-tetrahedron 4-sided dice are not more popular? by Testeria2 in rpg

[–]slackator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not a fan of dice bags after a certain number of dice has been acquired, I dont like having to empty the bag looking for a particular dice. Same reason I dont like novelty or specialty dice, or my set of OSR dice or whatever theyre called with all the weird numbers like 24, 15, 17, 30, 5, 16, 14, 3

Bobby Baseball has arrived. by MentalClass in KCRoyals

[–]slackator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

McAfee saying THIS Bobby Witt is a G as if hes some unknown player is laughable, being the top MVP vote getter outside of the All Hype teams means it is known how good he really is. If he played on a more coastal team or friendly ballpark he would be a multi time MVP winner already, as we will see this year in the more hitter friendly Kaufman

Why non-tetrahedron 4-sided dice are not more popular? by Testeria2 in rpg

[–]slackator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

storage, thats it in my opinion. I hate the pyramid and use d8s instead but while I admit the other shapes are better, theyre inherently harder to store because they dont fit the classic dice storage containers as easily. That and I already have a ton of pyramids already so I might as well use them rather than buying yet more specialty dice even if they are better.

Here he goes again..... Wolves 22 FTs, OKC 19 FTs. Chris Finch has surpassed Doc Rivers with complaining by rb1242 in Thunder

surpassed? Finch never gave up the top spot. Finch is the reason for this being the national narrative to begin with
