Lurking. Little to Contribute. Thanks.

@RaltsAuthor It can work sometimes, but it's a delicate balance. It's mostly important to have all the roleplay done AS THE CHARACTER -which most people fail to do- rather than with the player functionally charisma checking the DM IRL which is what a lot of these end up turning into.

@revenant_MMXX Couple of options with varying degrees of acceptability . You can put them into a specific category that loses privileges but subsidize programs for getting to normal weight/health,

A much simpler but harsher option is to just let them die

@GarrettPetersen That was part of the appeal of s1 of the Mando, it very naturally jumped to a bunch of locales just detailed enough to feel like they were complete and part of a living universe, not just the same 6 places and people.

@AlfonsoHegao I do believe there is an amount of dynamism that quite literally left the gene pool from colonialism and world war 1-2, the people that stayed behind in the UK were the ones that “always stayed, always endured” and they’re kind of stuck like this now

[[Internal Screaming] @uptoolategaming]

@cryprecision Also they wildly underestimate the level of violence required to stop someone trying to hurt you.

@neontaster Not even anything interesting to see at 160 down, all the life falls away after ~100 ft because there’s so much less sunlight

[[Internal Screaming] @uptoolategaming]

@memeticsisyphus Absolutely, it’s the idea of the living world that evokes such an invested response by the reader because there’s part of their mind that is caught up in creating stories for these half mentioned aspects of the world that have real implications for the setting.

@johndrewmarkley There's an HFY on that concept, an alien researcher is studying why humans are so fractious even upon reaching the galactic stage, and upon delving deeper it's because every other species has genocided the rest and implemented cultural controls.

@kuina_ch To the lower bracket and have to win their way back up to 1st

Otherwise in single elim, the #1 seed(best) plays the #8 seed(worst) and the other side is the #2 vs #7 and so on.

Both options give a chance for other players to upset, but ensure past performance is accounted for

[[Internal Screaming] @uptoolategaming]

@kuina_ch There’s two general approaches to this which can both be used, primary is a double elimination, and the second is a seeded bracket. Based on a round-robin (everyone plays everyone) the bracket is then adjusted. If using double elim, the best play the best and losers get kicked 1/

@RespectElves Personally I don’t mind the gays, I mind the faggots, unfortunately it’s become clear you can’t really have one without the other

This is the rock he bit

[yoni soprano @legally_male]

Went looking for rocks that look like meat and only found this dumb rock that looks like a soggy loaf of bread

[[Internal Screaming] @uptoolategaming]

@martianwyrdlord It is. It commonly suffers from using diagetic stats to short-hand character development, which has the knock-on effect of being unable to make any character development without it being "codified" by the system

He who Fights with Monsters is probably best known offender in this

@Corsair_Cowboy The All Guardsman Party is a masterclass in telling Warhammer stories from the grunt end of the spectrum, even as a slapstick comedy

[[Internal Screaming] @uptoolategaming]

@kangminlee Okay, We'll be less fearful of islam

[[Internal Screaming] @uptoolategaming]

@SandyofCthulhu There’s a common issue in RPGs in both directions when DMs forget “the players are not the character”

I don’t have to know how to cast Magic missile for my character to, and I don’t have to roll IRL to find a padlock in an escape room

[[Internal Screaming] @uptoolategaming]

@The__Goomba Honestly, do we not?

[[Internal Screaming] @uptoolategaming]

@shine_gomiseifu We don’t like them either

[[Internal Screaming] @uptoolategaming]

@girldrawsghosts Can you imagine how good the Robert Pattinson voice would have been

[[Internal Screaming] @uptoolategaming]

@rosiebellmoo It’s mostly about rotational grazing and being able to set out blocks of a field for the cows to get access to at certain points to optimise their uptake. The general herding and per-cow tracking of heat or general health are kind of ancillary benefits that help push the product.
