It happened. It FINALLY happened. Double. Nat. Twenties! WITH DISADVANTAGE!

Now, I'm not saying don't @ everyone. What I'm saying is gauge importance and frequency. Reminder, you might not think 2-3 times a week isn't a lot for YOU, add that to the other Discords ppl prob use too. Long term, you're prob hurting your reach w/ your community.

Occasionally I have to do this. I'm not in a lot of Discords because it's being active on multiple forums. Not really me. Ask yourself if @ everyone is necessary. If you DO that every other damn day, I'm sorry, I'm muting you. Heads up/FYI/general announcements don't need that.

Tonight at 9:00 PM US CT. DMd by @TrainerJodie. In the past. Trying to find a way back AND survive a mad scientist's machinations. Watch live and affect the show. twitch.tv/trainerjodie

There are other things I feel that need to be changed regarding the 5.5 class BTW. Like Divine Senses for example. I'm not one of those "waa waa they ruined my dps" folks. It's the overall broken action economy that's the big issue for me.

Again. Game design isn't easy. I'm also sure there's plenty of actual game designers for 3rd party publishers that may have something better already. This is just what I've been ruminating on.

K. As brief as possible. Not a game designer. I know it's not easy. I hate the 5.5 paladin. Boiled down, my 2 paladin features. 1. Go back to the 5.0 overall smites (sort of). 2. Take a page from the warlock. Use all the smites you want but you regain on a short or long rest.

Tonight at 9:00 PM US CT. DMd by @TrainerJodie. Well... Our time hopper McGuffin is showing ??? on the countdown timer. We're still in the past, posing as prison guards, all while a mad scientist performs experiments Watch live and affect the show. twitch.tv/trainerjodie

FML Different DM, same conspiracy bullshit. Truly. If you really REALLY believe that Critical Role is SCRIPTED? Your brain is marble smooth. Zero wrinkles. Probably as many firing synapses too.

With absolutely zero context in last night's D&D game. *rolls a 6 on medicine* Smegwick: The f**king Aquious Realm gave me Ocean Lupus.

Tonight at 9:00 PM US CT. DMd by @TrainerJodie. We're still in prison in the past as prison guards. More timey-wimey shenanigans ensue. Watch live and affect the show. twitch.tv/trainerjodie

Finally watched The Boys ending. The ending was perfectly suited to THIS story. For fuck's sake, it's THE BOYS, this was how it should have ended. Now, I'm done. I'm glad the story's over. I have no interest in a prequel. It's fine if you do. THIS was the story. Fin

Random thought as the listener of many podcasts. Friday, late afternoon and night, is the worst time to release a new episode. For a lot of people, the work week is ending. I know timezones and people's work-lives differ, but I feel this cuts a huge swath into timely listening.

i had the time of my life having the meal of my death. chef josh and co. artfully produce one of the internet's best interview shows in "last meals" and attacked my episode with panache. i was and am beyond honored. watch us eat, laugh, wax poetic, and SOLVE AN ESCAPE ROOM?!!

Omg omg, i’m going to be on Amazon prime!! Elated to hear Draw Your Weapons will be seen by even more people… I’m especially proud of my second episode! I’m absolutely beaming!! 🥰

Tonight at 9:00 PM US CT. DMd by @TrainerJodie. We've Tachyon Hopped (legally distinct) again. Impersonating prison guards in a crew member's past. Can we help? Maybe? Can we cause chaos... More likely. Watch live and affect the show. twitch.tv/trainerjodie

Nerdy D&D Pet Peeve Aid is *NOT* temp HP. 5 and 5.5 explicitly state HP max and current HP increase by 5. They last for a duration, yes, but they are not the game mechanic Temp HP. They're actual HP. People keep bad-splaining and interpreting what Aid does in a game.

TODAY WE HAVE OUR REVENGE youtu.be/yOZVV7YynuQ?si…
