#daggerheart players/GMs, real question:
It's been pointed out to me that I don't use the Spotlight System in combat. If I don't remember, I ask, "Who hasn't gone yet?" Do you think I'm losing something?
(This hasn't slowed things down; players tell me immediately.)

Spouse: But those are the best things about you!

Stayed behind for thanksgiving because I picked up some virus at the con. Specifically had not restocked the kitchen cuz we were gonna be away for four days. Can't/won't order anything fun to eat today.
Glad I get to keep the cat company, and rest, but wish I at least had a pot pie in the freezer 😞

The Harvest Court contains multitudes, and our Poets no longer no whom, or what, to trust. It's been a long, weary road, after all, marked by loss and upheaval. But when the Queen of Harrows questions you, you don't want to lose your head...

This is the drum I'll never stop beating, and I don't know why no one else is talking about it.

To the extent that AI actually *could* make things faster, smoother, more practical and less confusing...it won't. Because that would require multiple proprietary softwares integrating seamlessly, and their owners don't want that. End of story.

In the Facebook Era I tried to sell folks on the pneumonic CUFUF, for, "Can't Unfriend? Unfollow!"
These new lawless seas are tough--I don't know any of you weirdos--but it remains a good aspiration.

pre-writing a devastating obituary for your enemy is god-tier hating of a kind you don’t often see anymore. renaissance haterism. beautiful stuff.
A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.
Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."
Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.

Please share with anyone you know who's attending. (Or who still might!Single-day badges are still available.) I truly believe #daggerheart is designed so people can become GMs quickly--people want to play, now's a great time to learn by doing, and I will gladly help other GMs however I can.
Asteria is the *only* GM running #daggerheart at #paxunplugged. We think she's pretty cool, but all 3 of her games are booked. How can she help YOU join her ranks? Let's sling some Fear in Philly!
