When we get a question asking what others have done as GMs or players in their games, the question is almost always closed as “primarily opinion-based”. Sometimes they’re not put on hold, but they’re still edited to ask the same things but slightly differently.
What’s wrong with asking what othe...
I have... many... many dice now, and few opportunities to use them. But a friend is moving back here, along with his boyfriend, so that might change before too long.
Oh yeah, here's a link to the HeartDice Pride Dice kickstarter as well if anyone is into such things. I'd been wanting some bi dice forever, everything was always just one color off.
Which reminds me, I want to buy at least one of the Wiz Dice Fudge bags. If anybody wants a bunch of really pretty dice for a pretty reasonable price, go Wiz. :v
Same with Gaia Online (it was so bad that they made a new currency on Gaia a while back I think and converted the ridiculous amounts of gold to it, IIRC). It's a common issue on games where players can instantly create more currency but where there's nowhere near enough incentive to feed it back into the site and have it deleted (by purchasing things from game stores instead of other players).
Yeah, I'm sure a lot of MMORPGs have that issue too. Aside from illegal gold botting, the MMO model is kind of based on strings of limited goods, either by real world currency or frequent events where you can get the goods for free but only for a short period of time. Neither of which encourage gold to be spent on the game, but on other players who got the limited goods.
Flight Rising is pretty stable right now because getting more space for dragons becomes extremely expensive after a while, but it's also a pretty new site.
It also kind of feeds into itself because if you have those extremely expensive things, in order for anybody to get anything who hasn't been playing for years, you have to increase the currency output... which means... even more currency.
@Pixie yeah, EVE's about the only MMO I've heard of that's had anything resembling an economy that's worked well, but I'm not sure if it's really a...replicable model either
Tarantulas are more so than the Huntsman... But they're more inclined toward paralysis, actually
So they don't have to use web to overpower their prey
But I'm not sure how I want to go with this. I could either go and upgrade my ensnare, and have the poison/paralysis as a secondary effect, or vice versa
I'm not sure we have any huntsmen here, although they are spread throughout the US. They remind me of wolf spiders and fishing spiders in look and sometimes size; those are much more common here.
Yeah, huntsman aren't dangerous to humans at all. Their venom is too weak, but that doesn't mean the bits dont still hurt. (speaking from experience lol)
@Ben It was...weird. Definitely didn't come across as an adapted game, which given history can only be a good thing. But the pacing seemed really strange.
There's also an entire other Aggretsuko series, although it hasn't been officially subbed. It was a Japanese TV series of shorter episodes, like 3-4 minutes. I kind of preferred it, but again, not officially subbed.
@Pixie I definitely don't have the experience of harassment on a gender basis, but that's still a relatable problem and I have experienced some degree of her other problems
@trogdor Oh, you mean it was playing the dub voices but had the sub captions up?
Or just that it went back and forth?
That was one thing, like... I was watching it with some friends who don't work in an office, and when the staple thing came up, I was just like, "AUGHHHH." They were like, "What??"
Ah, I can see how that would be annoying. I think mine might have defaulted to Japanese audio? But that might be because that's how I always watch anime.
The only thing that's odd to me is that Sanrio isn't releasing many Retsuko goods in the US as far as I've seen despite its popularity. Come on, if Gudetama is everywhere...
Hmm, they have things on their website right now though. In addition to dice, I'm addicted to mascot characters, so perhaps later I will have to get some of this.
I can understand a good bit of it anyway, although there are enough complex sentences in there when the humans talk that I can't get everything, heh. I need to study more.
I could only take 101 and 102 at my college, that's all they offered. But I've picked up a certain amount of vocabulary from watching a lot of anime and listening to a lot of music, and I've been studying it on my own for a while too. I can translate and write simple things... a particularly handy sentence is "My Japanese isn't very good." :v

I expect we will soon see some offers for Red Health Potion supplement.
(BTW, yep, the flasks in the picture are a real energy drink. Not made up, Think Geeks used to sell them. I once even planed to get one as a collector item - to put on a shelf near my dragon egg statue
weird, no-script is detecting some xscript mess in that page. Luckily, it doesn't seem anything malicious... Much likely a "I don't know what I'm doing" programmer.
I got a second hand PC once. Decided to do a format once I got it home, just to be safe, but by that time it was late, I was getting tired, and I need to update some of my drivers. Go online to look for them, find some semi-legit looking site, and download
5 viruses later, I realise "oh wait, windows already does updates on its own. Duh."
The good thing about that was I didn't have anything g to lose, so I just ran another format

Related Question "bumping" - is it ok?
Let's say there is an answered and solved question that was asked back in 2016. It wasn't active for a couple of years. Now a community member edits one of its answer — let's say, fixes formatting, adds a tag or changes a typo. The question itself bumps int...
Note that it allows you to make only one attack though, and depending on what enemies you face you might be up for some nasty opportunity attacks if you try to use it regularly.
An accepted loophole here is that you can completely legitimately bump something by also performing edits. Hence the advice given in that meta Q: you want a bump, so why not make an edit which improves it which will just so happen to also produce a bump? We're fine with this because you improved stuff, good job. It's that mission accomplished thing where you wind up doing things that benefit the whole community. — doppelgreener ♦3 hours ago
