@TheOperaGeek You have my condolences.

Hey. In the lead up to this election all I got from this app were pro-Trump notifications. I’ve stuck around for people on here I thought were cool. But I don’t want to create free content for Muskrat anymore. I’m not deleting, so no one takes my name. But I’m on blue sky.

Once upon a time, I played a soft round fish boi in an RPG called Tidal Blades on Tablestory. The GM was PumpkinBerry—who made us all cry. Friendship was magic.

In two weeks, Tidal Blades returns.

[Tablestory @ATablestory]

We're back... or is it just starting? One can never be too sure with time travel!
🌊See you 4:30pm ET Wed, Nov 13th!

@SofiaAjram Congrats! If you ever want to talk to someone who’s been doing this for 23 years, my inbox is always open!

[TrooperSJP (troopersjp.bsky.social) @AcademicFoxhole]

@BilloftheForest That is smooth and fine!

[TrooperSJP (troopersjp.bsky.social) @AcademicFoxhole]

@TTBenjamin1 @JazzElves Now I would need to put my mind to that...

[TrooperSJP (troopersjp.bsky.social) @AcademicFoxhole]

@TTBenjamin1 @JazzElves Will this be an RPG short shot about carpenters waiting for Godot? That sounds fun!

[TrooperSJP (troopersjp.bsky.social) @AcademicFoxhole]

@JazzElves @TTBenjamin1 But also, action vs. mechanics isn’t even all the elements to consider. There is also, roll then declare vs. declare then roll…and that is a spectrum.
There is more nuance to this topic.
Oh also, this will be impacted by game probabilities and players expectations, too.

[TrooperSJP (troopersjp.bsky.social) @AcademicFoxhole]

@JazzElves @TTBenjamin1 I like the experience I get from simulationist RPGs. So I’m not generally playing D&D. And I try to gather players who are similar. And a group like that is likely to have different practices around declaring actions vs mechanics than some other group.

[TrooperSJP (troopersjp.bsky.social) @AcademicFoxhole]

@JazzElves @TTBenjamin1 Also there are some systems where declaring an action doesn’t make sense, or tell the whole story. And you need other information. There are some where action and mechanic are the same thing.

[TrooperSJP (troopersjp.bsky.social) @AcademicFoxhole]

@JazzElves @TTBenjamin1 This is where I’m at as well.
But also? Mechanics and actions should be in conversation with each other.

[TrooperSJP (troopersjp.bsky.social) @AcademicFoxhole]

Space Cadets! No Stream tonight! My cast is working or sick and I'm recovering from a colonoscopy. So join us for RPGs on the Academic Foxhole next Friday!
