Old Man got a reaction from Matt the Bruins in Political Discussion Thread (With Rules)
Wake me up when Trump is put in jail, removed from a ballot, or pays a significant fine with his own money.

RIP Trina Robbins
Doggone it--that wasn't supposed to happen.

Neuropathy.
I had a player once keep track of all the wounds his character took, then began role-playing the side effects.
Snake’s limp and lean to the left became a calling card. More than once causing minor thugs to run for the exits.

Old Man reacted to Ragitsu in A Thread For Random RPG Musings
Every so often, Lady Luck favors us with a smile (oftentimes a modest display, at best, yet still worth cherishing); I was fortunate enough to chance upon this piece of tabletop gaming history. A similar specimen turned up on the electronic bay, oh...a little under two years ago. Nowadays, even (original) 2e products are increasingly beyond the reach of casual collectors thanks to exorbitant premiums; if you have had your eye on something, carpe diem before you find yourself busting out your third kidney.
Speaking of which, has anyone here ever played in or ran campaigns wholly focused on ruins far removed from civilization? Alternatively, a campaign that wasn't entirely confined to exploring the remnants of a lost age, but which still involved a substantial chunk (say, forty percent or greater of the total duration) of discovery throughout long abandoned ancient structures also counts. The idea is to keep player characters away from a fortified base of support while simultaneously denying them easy resupplying of provisions. NPCs willing to engage in civilized discourse - or perhaps trade - are few and far between; friendly personalities are in the minority, while the majority is decidedly neutral in disposition (naturally, vipers lurk in their midst).
P.S. Recommendations for relevant modules are welcome!

Well, between moviemaking and his side gigs--making his own gin and owning a soccer team, I imagine he has little time for making an independent streaming series by a bunch of complete unknowns--unless, of course, we get him a really awesome script. (I'm thinking Kurt Busiek, myself. Does he work cheap?)

Unnecessarily redundant at that level of wealth.
