Paging @crikeymiles to the game design/probability analysis courtesy phone. Great thread on how stats and feelz intersect when you sit down to play.

I have an important announcement from my 4 yr old Crossface Jr.
You cannot have a meaningful campaign without a generous spirit. You really do have to be Christian to play these games properly.

Also, we're thinking up some stretch goals right now!

They never have an answer. Half of them don't want to understand - they are playing the "I am only asking retarded questions in good faith" tone police game. The other half couldn't tell you how they'd feel if they didn't have breakfast.

@NotJonMollison I love when missiles hit the drive a few times in a single shot. Almost as amazing as when the shits take out enough fuel to watch those pirates float of I to space like Major Tom.

Very boring people continue to be scandalized when they encounter those who enjoy a game enough to both seek to master it and unashamedly advocate for it. Welcome to the rodeo!

Wow, there is a lot going at WGC HQ! Not only is the Chainmail PBP going strong (and possibly coming to a conclusion...), but many lessons learned are making their way into the revised Basic Massed Combat rules. Be sure to sub the Yootoob channel to see the whole game!
@FrDarinSchmidt No, it's not surprising. I was woefully under-catechized. I didn't "know" about the Real Presence until I was 30. I learned more about the Faith as an adult on the Internet than I did growing up in a "Catholic" home with 12 years of Catholic schools.

@Crossface02 @JohnsonJeffro On Downtime And Demesnes (Courtney Campbell 2019) makes reference to it in Appendix C.
@calebhines @JohnsonJeffro @Crossface02 @RuleOfThule Blood in the Chocolate, a black-comedy take on Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Like most modules, alright for a one-shot, unlike most modules, not particularly linear. It was a B- effort, i didnt really get the hype
@JohnsonJeffro @calebhines @Crossface02 @RuleOfThule Same reason he folded to the aforementioned mob and apologized for his "problematic" adventure. Talent cant serve as a substitute for a backbone
@calebhines @Crossface02 @JohnsonJeffro @RuleOfThule Campbell's a talented dude, the OSR cancel-mob came for him because they resented how much better he was than the rest of them
Started Dwarf Fortress Adventure Mode last night, but couldn’t figure out how to carry on a conversation. There is definitely something here. I’ll need to learn how to play when it isn’t 11pm on a weeknight.
@McGowanJohnN >couldn't figure out how to carry on a conversation Relatable
@NotJonMollison There are lots of other differences that can be meaningful (like the impact of +1 etc.). I wanted to highlight how silly it is to talk up a bell curve and then chop it up to resemble a uniform distribution. This mental energy could have been used making an actual game!
@RuleOfThule @NotJonMollison Nobody denies the aesthetic experience of different dice methods, but if aesthetics are the goal this is what you should say, and not make up silly things about probability or function that aren't true
@dm_serious @OwlLawrence @pearsesd @ShirePropaganda @NotJonMollison @Plixeon @McGowanJohnN @optionalrule @AlchemicRaker Over & over, the answer is the same, stop worrying about theoretical, far-out edge cases, & just start playing. Match the game calendar to the real calendar, so Players & NPCs can make plans. Cross the bridges when you come to them, discussing solutions with the players.
@captains_brolog @pearsesd @JohnsonJeffro @OwlLawrence @ShirePropaganda @WorldofWeirth @NotJonMollison @Plixeon @McGowanJohnN @optionalrule @AlchemicRaker Dang right! The first Battle Braunstein to put me in charge of a good guy faction will be the first I don’t ice a major player!!!
@RuleOfThule I'm supposed to be writing a paper rn but you've got my gears turning, tomorrow I might have to do a comprehensive write-up of something I've been tinkering with for a while
@RuleOfThule Still think its extremely funny that Colville mentions the bell curve of 2d6 as a benefit of its usage but then clustered the results such that he removed the value of a bell curve. Nobody understands how dice actually work anymore
It was just a joke, but there are serious things to learn here. You may have doubts. Maybe it's "close" to a D12, or so on. But no, I assure you it's identical. Let me show you how to spot this yourself while demonstrating what REALLY matters about dice.🧵
I took too long coming around to it, but I guess I need to congratulate Matt for inventing a new die: the d12. He used extra-special ultra-powerful design wizardry to do this using only two ordinary d6s.
What matters is the ability of the die to store the right-sized chunks of probability in the right proportions. It's this DISTRIBUTION of probability chunks that generates the feel of the game, and we should focus on THAT instead. You designing a TTRPG or a mere DICE GAME?
