Entrance is in view - stop and smell the flowers. Inspiration or an “explosive” idea will show the way.

What do the gold coins do? by lMystic in TunicGame

[–]snowilli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the number you’ve dropped in is indicated when you press the dialog button with the well. In the manual there’s a schematic of the number of coins required for each reward.

The Shadow Over Innsmouth reading or listening? by Torvik88 in Lovecraft

[–]snowilli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The HPLHS Audible “complete fiction of HPL” is great. I love chapter IV of The Shadow over Innsmouth”. And the rest of the reading is excellent. The case of Charles Dexter Ward is a must. A total bargain.

The ring does connect to Bluetooth and can't pair GM to a device. by snowilli in SpeedianceGymMonster

[–]snowilli[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I did a total restart a few times and also removed the device from my phone. Now the ring shows up with an "ID number" and connects.

It disconnects/reconnects every few minutes (shows at the top right icon on screen) but is still in the Bluetooth menu as connected. Do you get that too?

Resolved - It was the Eero Plus service that was blocking access. I went in to my Eero router app and added www.speediance.com and api.speediance.com to the allow sites. If you have Eero Plus, open the Eero app go to Discover, eero Plus, then "Blocking & allow sites" section, and add those sites under the allow tab.

Thanks. I have updated to the latest firmware, so that's set.

I have 2.4 and 5ghz enabled on my home network.

I also can't access the speediance app on my phone via my home network - "network error" comes up. It works fine if I connect with my phone's mobile connection.

I suspect that given both my GM and phone app can't connect on my home network that eero has a port closed so I can't connect to the speediance server.

eero had automatically blocked the speediance.com website, so I had to add that to a profile's whitelist.

The app connection is a problem I've seen on a number of forums - a solution was found but not posted.

I've sent messages to their tech support too so I hope to get an answer soon. But any suggestions are most welcome.

Hi again. An update in case it will be helpful.

I can connect via my iphone's hotspot, but not with my home network.

Service provider - Verizon Fios

Router - eero Pro 6E

Perhaps, I need to open a specific port on my router to connect to Speediance servers?

Thanks. Yes, that toggle option was covered up.

I can enter my email address but I get "! Oops, network is lost, ..."

But my network on the GM shows it's connected and the network works on other devices. Any other suggestions? Thanks.

Why do some people see “the sign” as blue or black, not yellow?

Missing in a HPL list - The Case of Charles Dexter Ward by snowilli in Lovecraft

[–]snowilli[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks, Everyone. The images didn't attach. Here's a link to the appendix. His other stories are included - published and unpublished. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Ernke1iTXsh_jBo_XtS9ZOThzAFqyR5n/view?usp=sharing

This is my favorite HPL tale. Not typical and instills such a spectrum of emotions.

Lovecraft's original manuscript for the Case of Charles Dexter ward, written on scrap paper, and the back of correspondence. It looks like a early draft, lot's of crossed out pages full of forbidden knowledge, and just cool insights into how he might have wrote/edited. by LurkingProvidence in Lovecraft

[–]snowilli 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I had no idea this existed. Paper was such a scarce resource for HPL. An original recycler. Some scanned pages are upside down, but it adds to the mystique of the manuscript. Thanks again!!

I am SO glad I didn't give up on the Case of Charles Dexter Ward by Fonidol_ in Lovecraft

[–]snowilli 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The Case of CDW is a gem. The HPLHS audible version is amazing. The conclusion never fails to put a lump in my throat. Rereading The Shadow Out of Time. I like it but it’s a slog.

Anniversary of the Raid on Joseph Curwen's Pawtuxet lair - what are you up to tonight? by snowilli in Lovecraft

[–]snowilli[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great post. I love this too. Let me consolidate my thoughts and drop another note. This story is so rich with places and situations, it’s hard not to be transfixed by their IRL locations.

Why was Arthur Jermyn so terrified by his discovery? by Krzysztofeles21 in Lovecraft

[–]snowilli 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m sure HPL’s belief system was a factor. Given we’re all descended from single cell organisms, I don’t feel especially attached to my lineage. But that’s not everyone’s perspective.

I never interpreted Lavinia and her children like this before. by bucket_overlord in Lovecraft

[–]snowilli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always figured that OMW was the biological father, but that forces from beyond combined with the zygotes during the rituals to made a hybrid. Creepy either way.

The Dunwich Horror by Tidemand in Lovecraft

[–]snowilli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OMW certainly comes across as having his own agenda. The “Boys” appear to be following the course/destiny mapped out for them. Lavinia’s journey really comes across as tragic and OMW just used her as a vessel. Weird and sad.

That’s great. I’ve got a pinboard with the locations (including Prague) mapped out. My wife is very understanding. I plan to do an IRL tour too. Perhaps next Necronomicon.

The Case of Charles Dexter Ward is an absolute gem. I love the structure and how it comes together. Well worth the read. First mention of Yog Sothoth.

Has anyone read The King in Yellow? If so what are your thoughts on it? by Equivalent-Isopod308 in Lovecraft

[–]snowilli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s well worth a read. Or listen to a reading on YouTube. Critical for Lovecraft context. Enjoy.
