New #stream schedule I'm going to try to stick to. Focusing on @runarcana content for the forseeable future, which I'm stoked about! All times in PST

@ExecutionerKen My club only has a few kids actually compete, and we definitely can't afford what they're charging.

[Jonas Elam @ElamiteGG]

@ExecutionerKen I saw an recently that we're looking at several hundred dollars a year to compete. It's crazy what happens when monopolies form. When it was HSEL vs PlayVs, the PlayVs edge was being free, the downside being less flexible timing. They acquire HSEL, now it's worst of both worlds.

@MonteCristo I have been in this exact position. I teach an esports-related class and club, but I've been so busy, I'm not able to stay on top of things, and have wanted a newsletter like this for a year. I'm so excited!

[Jonas Elam @ElamiteGG]

@Wickdlol The Lol Cypher that went around was absolute peak content.

[Jonas Elam @ElamiteGG]

I got engaged!

@MWEsportsSeries @MountainWest @SJSU_Esports @SJSUAthletics Let's goooo!

Leonidas has nothing on these Spartan Kings

One of my all-time favorite authors, John Flanagan, passed away.

He authored the Ranger’s Apprentice series, a fantasy series second only to The Lord of the Rings in its influence on my love for the genre.

"Elam, how many notes do we need?"
"It's in the instructions."
"...Where are the instructions?"

They're the entire first slide of the assignment & this is the 25th time they've done this task

I can't overstate the lack of basic thinking skills. Is it on the parents? I'm in awe

@RiftboundReport @ComicBook @FullestSquare0 Your girl <3

[Jonas Elam @ElamiteGG]

I turned the new #LeagueOfLegends Items from Season 16 into magic items for @runarcana! Aside from the mana, which could be converted somehow to spell slots, they should work for #DnD, though probably not super well-balanced. But it's a starting point lol

Me: "Who is willing to commit to making an intention to speak up when they see people being mistreated, and be an upstander, not a bystander,"

Many students: "that sounds like a lot of work," "That's not worth it" "nah, that's on them"

Wild. Not even worth saying "I'll try"

[Jonas Elam @ElamiteGG]

Three unrelated students told me their families are leaving the country soon out of fear today. All here legally, documented, some for many years.

This is not normal.

New @Runarcana Academy about Trap mechanics, examples, and narrative tie-ins. Big fan of the system they set up!

https://t.co/LSaIGf4e5J

[Jonas Elam @ElamiteGG]

I made commentative guide to @runarcana's crafting system using more examples than the Wiki has, as well as a dedicated example-only guide! Glad to be writing again after focusing on video. I love this #LeagueOfLegends #ttrpg

[Jonas Elam @ElamiteGG]

Exciting news for @runarcana . A new craft, Trapper, just dropped over the weekend. I did a short video about it

https://t.co/EPFlxdppKO

[Jonas Elam @ElamiteGG]

Also, I wrote a companion guide that gives some more commentary now that it's done and makes all the resources I used easily accessible

[Jonas Elam @ElamiteGG]

New Video for @Runarcana Academy, but could work for #5e with some adjustments. I put together a sea monster encounter using the Black Mists from the Shadow Isles

[Jonas Elam @ElamiteGG]

@arddhu It's one of my favorites. Similar to log horizon and overlord, the exploration of magical world politics and economics by a person from the real world absolutely fascinates me.

[Jonas Elam @ElamiteGG]

Doing a short @runarcana Academy where i'll be putting together a naval encounter against a sea monster in the black mist, so several different systems at play

[Jonas Elam @ElamiteGG]

New Article explaining Techmaturgy in @runarcana is out! I had a lot of fun writing it. Thanks @wentworthcubed for helping me make it clearer and more accessible
