Happily retired super-nerd. Born in Louisville, then to Lexington, back to Louisville, then to Richmond, back to Lexington, BA in English from UK, started JD, off to San Francisco, finished JD, brief stint in Los Gatos, and finally to Daly City. Whew.

A long time ago, I invented an IC/OOC gambling game that's very simple and fast. We've been playing it for 15 years.

(1) Settle on a stake.

(2) Both players roll 2d20.

(3) Compare the higher rolls and the lower rolls, and whomever wins each comparison wins a stake.

My 7D4S group, desirous of purchasing and reopening the Glassworks, got permission to "clear out the ghosts." A few hours later, the priest of Abadar was heard saying, "I don't think we thought this out very well," followed by a "dignified retreat" from the haunted place.

@stevekenson.com - Re Solo M&M; I think the reference ("not incapacitated") on page 3 needs to point to Section 6, not section 7.

"Shorsey" is absolutely the best sitcom you've never seen.

Hey, folks, can I both commit capitalism and get a bit personal for a moment? I wanna talk a bit about the upcoming Kickstarter for the fourth edition of Mutants & Masterminds.

(I'm probably gonna be doing a LOT of this for the next five weeks, so now's your time to mute or unfollow me.)
Coming soon: Mutants & Masterminds 4th Edition RPG
A new edition of our classic superhero TTRPG with updated and streamlined game systems, more options, and a new look!

Pathfinder (my biweekly Sandpoint game) in 2 hours! The PCs spent 5 days in Downtime and heavy RP last session; this time it's back into The Pit, hunting down certain foul-breathed cultists! (Back in town, everybody's least-favorite mob prince is waging the propaganda war!)

If anybody out there in the Bay Area has interest in a new in-person PF2E game, and would be able to play in Daly City on Sundays, please ping me! I'm looking to GM a(nother) game (or play)! Beginners welcome!

How much would y'all say the Glassworks is worth in as-is condition? In gold pieces?

My players have not, to my knowledge, used a single consumable item. I've gone out of my way to make them aware that these items are fully intended by the game to be used, not hoarded ... but it doesn't seem to matter to them.

Is this normal for PF2E?

I'm rewriting a convention adventure for PF2E (was 3.5, then PF1E, now PF2E) and doing a balance check. I'm changing the hobgoblin archer to use shortbow, and giving them the first ability in place of the second (which they normally have). This should be okay, right?

Left a VM for Schiff. Padilla doesn't have VM turned on for some weird reason. I'll call tomorrow. (Also, I understand keeping DC hours, but not taking California calls at 4 PM Pacific? Not good.)

We played the entire Adventure Path "Shattered Star" with my half-orc wizard and his best friend (a dwarven warpriest) introducing themselves to everyone as "Sharders," to the embarrassment of the rest of the group ... who never even tried to explain the problem.

From last session's PF1E game:

"When Type I demons set up to do their Dance of Ruin, are they ... Vrockettes?"

(Funniest if you imagine a line of bricks in sequins, doing synchronized high kicks.)

There are remarkably few dwarf holidays explicated in Golarion lore, and Cassandra, one of my players, loves her dwarf. So I'm going to create (and/or lightly modify) six or seven specifically dwarven holidays.

The new King of the Hill is an excellent nostalgia fix. Really enjoying it.

My face-to-face RPG group looks for new players for our gaming circle in Daly City (SF Bay Area) pretty much on an ongoing basis. We play almost every Saturday, and occasionally on Sundays. We almost always have two campaigns alternating.

I think PF2E needs a Bulk category of "L+," where one of any specific item is L, but each additional one of the same item is 1 Bulk. This represents the form-factor of one item being non-bulky and easy to carry, but multiples get unwieldy. Exhibit 1: 50 feet of hemp rope.

Black Doves was not particularly close to what I expected, and I was very pleasantly surprised. If you like spies, gangsters, twisty players that may or may not make sense, and *extremely* funny triggerwomen, give it a watch.

In #SevenDoomsForSandpoint today, the heroes have to answer to the Town Council, and (assuming they survive the politics) will probably make their first forays to find and enter the Pit. Let's see if they check in at any of the farmsteads along the way ...

I started watching Tom Petty videos for some reason, and when YouTube ran out of those it started playing bands from my college years ('90s), then began mixing in my favorites from more recently, like #metric, #haim, #theBeths. If it spontaneously figures out how much I loved Amy Winehouse ...

... Has anybody ever seen Beto O'Rourke and Andy Beshear in the same place at the same time?

Talk to Me (2022, Horror) is excellent. It's the first feature by the makers of Bring Her Back (2025, Horror), which is my favorite horror movie of the year, and if anything Talk to Me might be better. (Also, I could definitely see the two films sharing world-connection.)
