TAA, I appreciate you being honest and agreeing that this discussion isn't productive discourse. I am 100% with you on that. If some stick-up-your-ass denner wants to talk about US politics without anyone making jokes about how they're going to advocate for murdering homeless people, I guess they ne...

Damn, every big game is making a board game version. It looks like the game isn't actually finished... there most recent update apparently includes an overhaul to leveling and a redesign of the Warfare school. The fact that they are a year in and haven't locked down the rules sketches me out. I watc...

These do share a throughline: WotC claims that someone it is working with does a bad job, then it pulls the plug on its agreement. But in the case of Dragonlance, WotC wanted to back out because the manuscript was unsalvageable. But in the case of GF9, WotC pulled out of its agreements with GF9 over...

Posting on TGD counts right?Kaelik wrote: Only if it is drilled into the skulls of every democrat in the house on a daily basis for two years, because otherwise conventional wisdom will be what the house leadership of 80+ year olds who want to murder poor people say it is.

I don't think this has been brought up yet, but someone showed me this pic from the Democratic Socialists's M4A twitter account. These are the outcomes of house races as they relate to M4A. https://i.imgur.com/jLLgyoH.png Relevant races seems to be: Mucarsel-Powell (FL) and Shalala (FL) did not camp...

Mguy already addressed YLM about the weirdness of quoting his post at me, but I'm seconding that because he hit the nail on the head. My problem with YLM is that he bitched at Kaelik for informing people of the (shitty) reality of the situation even though he also did his little half concession thi...

YLM: Biden won, Biden is shitty, it's good and cool to point out the ways he is shitty and how he could be less shitty. This thread is specifically about the 2020 election, which Biden won, so when he does nepotism people will talk about it. ++ to this, but I get the feeling you and I disagree abou...

With Username17 having disappeared, I find myself staring at Kaelik's doomer posts in conflict. On one hand, doomers are annoying and I don't enjoy talking to them. On the other hand, doomers are annoying and I worry people might believe Kaelik if no one ridicules him. I guess I'll try this at least...

Now, if we elect another dem after Biden, I will be well and truly fucking floored. Yeah I've got some hesitancy about where the future is going to go. But I'm with DSM in that I am pretty much emotionally spent, and I'm willing to think more about that in 1-2 years. Without the senate (I doubt Dem...

I'm actually skeptical that Biden's struggles here are the result of over-appealing to white Republicans. It looks like some of the Dems biggest losses, particularly re:latinos, were associated with social conservative issues. States like Florida indicate a shift towards socially conservative and fi...

I think a more accurate description would likely be that the psyker got 18% with a lucky roll, each other player took up 3% by just chugging along with predictable actions, the DM got 20% for setting the scene, and the remaining 50% could really have stood to be more interesting. I agree with that....

Players will like any mechanic in the abstract so long as it is powerful, and cascade is very powerful. That said like OgreBattle alluded to players did not like that standard format in which cards with cascade were the dominant force, largely because decks built around cascade have a tenancy to be...

I don't think this is all that good of an article given that it exists to justify Cascade, one of the worst mechanics ever printed. Like cascade and miracle are the go to examples for mechanics that amplify the sort of variance that players dislike. That's a very aggressive statement, and the major...

I agree that Chapter 1 could use a prequel to grab people a little more. Or it could be shortened slightly to give it a little more punch. In either case, I would say your first chapter is the weakest chapter I have read so far (currently at Chapter 9). The story does meander a fair bit, but I'm sti...
