I am both frightened and aroused

There’s only twelve lemmy users anyway.

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

There was a dude on reddit that bigot watch kept nailing because of that.

Dude used the same patterns and words, thinking that switching user names would matter.

But, what if I use my real name and just lie all the time?

I mean, you can eat them both

You can get pellets and ball ammo in other materials. Might have to special order them, not sure how available they are over there, but they do make them. I have steel ammo for my air pistol, it’s my back yard pleasure shooting gun, so lead isn’t acceptable to me.

Sorry for this, but…

sigh unzips

Nice!

I’m not seeing a downside

I missed it!

My faith in the internet is restored!

I am so disappointed in lemmy. Not a single masturbation joke in the comments

Shit, that’s the part of prep that’s fun

Ignoring established world building, which I don’t count as campaign building, I tend to have an overall plan, plus a handful of probable diversions. Each path is going to have NPCs as appropriate, though I tend to keep them as just notes until maybe a couple of sessions before they’re likely to be used.

As an example, I might have “lvl 10 chronomancer; drow, w/magic staff, 1 ring, and familiar” when I rough out the campaign. Once I’m sure the players are going that direction, I’ll pick the specific gear, build the NPC’s spell list, and have a plan for the encounter that includes combat, non combat, and usually a combo of the two. But the encounter plan is all mental, no need for written notes of that kind of thing.

If they’re going to a location I’ve already got on paper, it’s easy prep. But I do have a lot of room that isn’t labeled on the map, as well as locations nobody has gone during play. For those, it’s usually just writing down existing ideas, and cooking up details if there’s a divination or scouting run, or whatever.

It’s one of the benefits of having an established world to play in that’s also huge enough that there’s room to grow. I never have to build from the bottom up, it’s only for one off and/or “non canon” play that I do much of that at this point. So most of the depth of those is in my head anyway, not on paper at all.

Mind you, I still have worlds I haven’t used, and likely never will. It’s a long standing mental hobby. But I really enjoy both depth and breadth for my setting.

That seems like a pretty damn efficient method. I’m going to pretend I thought of it :)

It’s two!

It’s Latin. It’s used in legalese and roughly translates to “guilty mind”

The concept behind it as a legal term is based around whether the accused had intent or not, but also whether or not they could form intent.

No way is that little angel forming any intent of evil.

Sorta kinda.

If you’re used to the track pads, using a thumb based track pad is similar enough the habituation curve will be gentle.

Mind you, you’re still adapting to the roundness, as well as the scale.

That being said, having used the old Microsoft trackball, thumb based ones are not for me. I’ve tried that specific one as a loaner and it didn’t match what I wanted. But comparing it to the deck’s pads, there’s a closer kind of muscle memory. I think the biggest difference is the tendency of the ball to make the ends of your movement sloppy compared to the center third or so. But that is where the habituation curve is, imo, not in the general usage.

Objection!

There is no mens rea!

Case dismissed!

Can confirm, their mom carried me to school often, and only required infrequent lubrication. Wasn’t great up hills though

Wise choice!
