The last few weeks have been difficult and shown that awareness around the suffering of Palestinians is still low, so my friends at People Make Games offered me the opportunity to speak to the games industry again youtu.be/pDB_wYdn5f4?si…

Just gonna say, if you want to pay $8 per month and actually get something for it, you could always subscribe to Epic Tier.

3️⃣ Longwave by @cynicaloctopus A free online, real-time adaptation of the board game Wavelength. 〰️ Figure out where something lies on a spectrum: hot or cold, young or old, wizard or…not a wizard? (sometimes, it gets weird) 👀 longwave.web.app

@PatrickRothfuss I recently re-read The Name of the Wind, fantastic book. I liked how one of Kvothe's last escapades was basically the plot of Cocaine Bear. (I have not seen Cocaine Bear.)

The OGL 1.1 as proposed is a huge problem. It would effectively make it impossible for me to do future work on Improved Initiative, and it harmful for independent #DnD creators everywhere.
Noah Downs, Esq.@MyLawyerFriend

I reviewed #DnD’s proposed Open Gaming License 1.1, and was asked to share my thoughts as a intellectual property/gaming lawyer. It’s generally awful for creators and fans alike. So - Let’s take a minute to talk about D&D’s Open Gaming License (OGL). link.medium.com/L8w26xQHlwb

THREAD: Before this spreads like wildfire, let's discuss what must *actually* happen w/ WotC survey responses. Because I spent yrs working in large organizations that brought in data this way, and I'm 90% sure I can guess what the process looks like based on that experience.(1/8)

@koto2992 Yeah, I've been thinking a lot about building a generic combat tracker in the same style. Something where you can configure it for various systems and just import data files, like in Foundry.

@cynicaloctopus The exclusion of that text wouldn't stop you from making it though, would it? You could just put in a way that allows users to insert it themselves just like how we can already make our own stat blocks. Added benefit, it now works for more than just D&D.

@alexander_bird This is good. I've had some success with a combination of this, and "I'll be working on this stuff in the Slack room huddle in 30 mins, feel free to join." It feels a little more informal and prevents me from blocking on folks.

Jargon-free way to invite folks to pair/ensemble on coordinated changes 😎 From team slack: "maybe we should get on a call and author+publish+review+merge these commits all together? Probably in <1hr we could entirely complete the changes to the new model for API + caller"
