    Nice and innocuous. Maybe a little ominous.

    I think many of those allegations about deSantis may end up being true, but for now, we'll have to stick to what he's said and done on the record.

    Just as a point of reference, the NBAs 3 point shooting contest gives competitors 70 seconds to shoot up to 25 balls from between 22 and 23.75 feet away from the basket and you also have to move about 70 feet to get to where all of the balls are placed. Most of the participants finish all of their shots within the time limit, so their SPD must be over 4.

    I don't honestly see the point in limiting SPD to such low numbers for the sake of 'realism'. If you tried to play a FPS and limit your reaction time to 6 or 4 second blocks, you would be pwned SO HARD.
     
    Trained people doing things they are good at act and react so much faster than a 4 SPD would. Maybe even faster than a 6 SPD.

    What I take away from those statistics is that about 48% of the respondants had no idea of the origin of the phrase they were reacting to.

    Today I Learned: California is the partner of Ukraine in the State Partnership Program.
     
    This partnership started in 1993 and has included in the past unit(s) of that state's National guard deploying to the partner country. Obviously not right now though.
     
    Unsurprisingly, Georgia's partner state is Georgia.

    BNakagawa reacted to dsatow in Dundracon 46   
    Dundracon 46 will be at the Santa Clara Marriott this year.
     
    Games are posted on the website.  Mask and vaccination mandate is the same from last year.
     
    Some changes:
    1) The program book will not have descriptions of the RPGs games offered.  This is to slim down the book.  Descriptions are still online.
    2) I believe they expanded the number of rooms at the hotel but it stilled filled up pretty fast.  But you can always try.
     
    I have a spreadsheet with the HERO based games you can look at: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qL-akWd-8Nwpwdm6T7A8JzYO1ZBij6PCiKzwu68Kflw/edit?usp=sharing
     
    There are 12 HERO games being offered at Dundracon.

    Coming up with loopholes and abusive tweaks may have seemed pretty clever at the time, but frankly these days it's mostly a way to make yourself unwelcome at most tables. GMing Champions is enough work as it is, and having to audit every damn line on THAT GUY's character sheet is getting close to camel's back territory.

    I always assumed it was because some people found it easier to suck up to the game master than to learn a game system.
