Given that the only two games I am actually familiar with that might be an OSR are Mythic Bastionland and Mothership im looking forward to having to come up with 72 results for panic and injury tables.

What night? Hit me up in DMs. I got a couple evenings left free though timezones are a pain.

I think the best thing you could do is link me to a single blog post that you think is essential reading, and nothing more. Allowing me to see a taste of something someone else values and letting me feel out the space from there.

Im going to settle for 'playing' some osr first. Trying out actually playing mothership for the first time literally right now. That and Mythic Bastionland are basically my only real touchstones, and im aware that they are sort of outliers? Or maybe not. I legit dont know much about the scene.

I need you to know that I want nothing more than to play seven part pact with the transgender women mentioned in the article thank you for your service

As an additional addenda:

I need you all to know the printer thing isnt a joke. Back when I was at uni helping run a tabletop society of near entirely 5E players it was a thing i earnestly believed.

As an addenda:

I have been told that NSR is a thing that exists, and that an NSR is when an OSR is a "Story Game" and or has pronouns in it. A "story game" is like what if a TTRPG was a Walking Simulator. At the risk of expressing an opnion that will get me killed: I think walking simulators rock.

You're Welcome. This is how I feel every time I talk to anyone who knows what the OSR is.

wait thats an actual thing, I was trying to get the grammer wrong on purpose so people knew it was a joke and didnt try to do discourse at me

(I am told discourse is a big part of an OSR)

Thank you for the medal I intend to roll a d100 and compare it to a percentile skill check to decide if im going to be gracious about it.

I'm looking forwards to "oh my god you played X in #Over/Under" as an intermittent dopamine spike for the next few years of my life

its going to be a very intresting challenge to work around when it comes to do an edit pass ha ha. I should really reign in the proof of concept spreads until i've finished writing now im confident in the look and feel I think, save myself some delicate scissor work down the line.

oh you're so right actually. Would need to rework numbers and layout so its not a whole unreadable mess but that would be So Good. Worth at least a test.

Apparently the throughline here is that i like doing fancy stuff with scarfs and hair adornments? What if i had an irl fancy scarf of hennin or something as an affectation. Much to think about.

god i keep forgetting that this smarmy mage git was fucking corvus a few weeks back. Remind Delph to keep her pencils sharp.
