  1. Here's a great suggestion: instead of having general, combat, penalty and other forms of skill level, just combine them into one. Then the player can decide at time of purchase what the skill level is to be used for. There are many more suggestions that I have that I can make with other posts.
  2. Q: I have been attempting to open this left side door for the last five minutes. What have I been doing wrong? A: Our life boat is the Titanic.
  3. Q: What is just a normal day like in Congress? A: I revel in my illogic.
  4. I believe that WOTC has made many positive changes to the system. Opening character creation for more diversity, creating greater noncombat opportunities, streamlining combat are all positive in my opinion. However, since they are making it so that one can only get (and play) through their approved media might be such a strong negative that it could drive players toward other games (non-WOTC) effectively destroying their product.
  5. Naughty or Nice Eggnog made with rum, not brandy
  6. If you have a copy of Ultimate Speedsters, they breakdown how EXTREMELY high speeds operate. Essentially, the speedster will hop into an alternate dimension where time passes faster, perform action, then return to normal reality. The basic principle here is that the alternate dimension is someplace where you (gm) gets to go back and totally recreate EVERYTHING! If suddenly fire powers work at 2x power (cold powers at 0.5x) then that will be the case. Can you imagine what will happen with those fireballs?
  7. Would you expect anything else from some organization that has hours to kill (this can include the creators, readers, and all others)?
  8. I agree with this comment. When my first wife died, everyone here was a great help. Regardless if the loss is sudden or gradual, it's still a surprise that we don't expect. MUCH condolences your way in this time of sadness from everyone in my house to yours, and blessings too. Lights a candle.
  9. This film looks like someone slapped a bunch of holiday specials together and called it a day. Who approved this rubbish? A: This city doesn't have enough population, only 25 million.
  10. Kronos - They simply use this as another excuse to slaughter anyone that they dislike (including you). NT: You are charged with inventing a new holiday celebration. What is this celebration?
  11. This is a very convoluted lawsuit that should never have gone past the filing stage. In the video, he mentioned several items that can kill the prosecution in addition I have made several "instant" foods. Sometimes I followed the package directions other times I didn't. Regardless if I did or not, I discovered that it took a minimum of twice the amount of time that they claim it would require. This doesn't include the consumption time (another doubling right there). As a result, something that claims "ready in 3 minutes" I think will really require a minimum of 10 minutes to prepare, eat, and all else that is necessary.
  12. What I'm expecting is a repeat of 2016. The common electorate will grant him something between 10-20% of the vote. Then the powers behind the scenes will come in and determine that we did not know what we were doing and recast the election, giving him over 50%, WAY more than is needed to claim the nomination. (I was surprised that this didn't happen in 2020.)
  13. Let's conclude with one of most mysterious - Santana NT: Let's get some holiday cheer with various holiday-sponsored cocktails.
  14. I think that there might be something wrong with our computer. Let's get somebody to check it out.
  15. Humanity being the wonderful creature we are love any reason that we can obtain to celebrate. Among the greatest of these reasons is holidays. There are many reasons for such days, ranging from simple people decided to mark this day special for some lost reason (traditional excuses) to more complex examples involving a conglomeration of different groups that are intermingled together. This could include the extended continuation of some one-time event. While most of the time fantasy campaigns will essentially use RL holidays and reskin them in some form, this doesn't need to be the case. I would like to hear about some of the celebrations/holidays that have been created for your world. Are they regional, worldwide, religious, secular, something else? Anything else that you would like to mention about them would be greatly appreciated.
  16. This is something that is not governmental playbooks.
  17. Most of the time, there are so many middle men that if prices change $1, the final retailers will see at most one penny of this change. At the same time, us consumers will be paying the total bill not knowing where the money is actually going and make the assumption that those "poor" retailers that we shop at are totally responsible for everything.
  18. Q: Why is Doomsday always so angry at everything? A: That was my special dilithium muffler.
  19. My name truly is Asperlis Quintillion, though most know me by my more common monacure - Asp. I don't perform anything fancy, just maintain the place's foodstuffs, treasury, similar items. While I don't have any fancy combat abilities, if I sense that anything is off with what I am guarding, I get in a state that even most goliaths hate dealing with.
  20. I have never seen any problem with this. Done right, it leads to many great characters each with their own abilities, strengths, weaknesses, quarks, etc. However, it is extremely easy to use this as some "cookie-cutter " operation that quickly leads to many characters who are effectively clones of each other - no flavor, distinctive, quark, etc. I have used this trick many times and achieved both results.
  21. Chimera https://www.google.com/search?client=ms-android-samsung-rev2&source=android-browser&sxsrf=ALiCzsbCf9N1JBQZR6tBfywwxShne545WQ:1668185562519&q=chimera&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjq7v2-y6b7AhX5m2oFHbdbDa0Q0pQJegQIChAB#imgrc=XgLDCAgU5cxx0M
