You really need to cover MatPat’s attempt for Jeopardy consideration. Read more

My God, so many insults, so much aggression in the greys. You guys, it’s okay for you to disagree with me. I’m not mad at that. But why make all those assumptions about my person (wrong across the board, by the way) based on such a scarcity of information? Why feel the need to attack me personally at all?

The rules are meant to just be a framework that the players and DM tweak to tell their story. What the article states is arguably wrong with D&D 5E could be solved by a DM being flexible and a decent storyteller. Read more

You live in the Chicago suburbs? Is your last name “Griswold”? Is your proposal to build a park closer to Chicago actually because you’re still a little angry about that vacation when you drove half way across the country just to find the park was closed?
