@mytholder I rolled a 4!

[Vic Polites @VicPolites]

@SKenson Ah, the good ol' at-a-loss approach from the final TSR days. 🤣

[Vic Polites @VicPolites]

@NAlexWhite Hmm, picking Dark World over Ragnarok? Dunno about that.
But I'm not a fan of Iron Man 2 or 3, so I'm with you there.

[Vic Polites @VicPolites]

More than one person commented on how it was one of the scariest adventures they had ever played. High praise!

[Sean K Reynolds has moved to BlueSky @seankreynolds]

Charles' spoOOOooky Cypher System adventure that premiered at Gen Con (with more sessions at GameHole Con) is now available as a PDF!

@pk_sullivan @tomlommel Yeah, it bugged me through the whole middle act - Mom was just... off.

[Vic Polites @VicPolites]

@pk_sullivan Agreed. I know some people who like it well enough, but I was more and more annoyed every time the unbelievable romance 'blossomed' a little more.

[Vic Polites @VicPolites]

@pk_sullivan Yeah, it's the worst I've seen since The Relic. And barely tries to get us to like its cast - and certainly succeeds far less than AvP even.

[Vic Polites @VicPolites]

That's the vibe. 100%

[Vic Polites @VicPolites]

@pk_sullivan I pay to watch a lot of Dreamworks for the same reason. Well, college buddy.

[Vic Polites @VicPolites]

@itsginnydi I will also say 'Prompt'.
From an actor's perspective, it implies immediacy and could be a line, an entrance, an exit, or an action. "Move the scene forward by doing X."

[Vic Polites @VicPolites]

@k_brewster @laura_hirsb I came here to suggest this. I know I started them by 3rd grade, though I was 9 rather than 7.

[Vic Polites @VicPolites]

@pk_sullivan The movie is definitely on my comfort food list. Makes no sense, but is still tons of fun.
And my old friend, Allen Williams, helped with the creature design - I often let the credits roll until I see his name. :D

[Vic Polites @VicPolites]

@pk_sullivan Pete Postlethwaite. From Dragonheart to Inception, he's a rock star. He also got into the biz later in life, like me. Sadly, passed away, so we'll see no more from him.

But Clifton is a lot of fun in this one. Love the hair.

[Vic Polites @VicPolites]

@pk_sullivan I always think consensus should have more Cs

[Vic Polites @VicPolites]

@RobinDLaws Mona Lisa Smile (more so than the first two in the series)

[Vic Polites @VicPolites]

@seankreynolds When they have no interest in partaking in your hobby, but ask lots of good questions cause they want you to share your love of it with them anyway.

[Vic Polites @VicPolites]

@pk_sullivan Love that episode. "I've had that nightmare." (Or does say, same dream?)

[Vic Polites @VicPolites]

@pk_sullivan During my re-watch last year, I started skipping the terrible bits. TKO took ten min to watch.

[Vic Polites @VicPolites]

@NAlexWhite @GailSimone Though maybe there's something to the idea that projecting a tinted beam thru a tinted surface cancels any color-shifting out. Like muffling a power tool with its own sound.

[Vic Polites @VicPolites]

@NAlexWhite @GailSimone So, does he perceive Jean to be bald?
