patrons voted for me to stream cartograph a couple of times this month so i'll see you in like... 45 minutes? & we'll see what a gloomy thursday afternoon vibe does for character creation etc
a streaming set up for cartograph: blank paper, playing cards, a bunch of dice, an empty character sheet, & me tossing up a peace sign in the corner

📊 paid patrons still have a few hours to determine what game i'm gonna stream a couple sessions of in may www.patreon.com/posts/livest...
then, to make up for missing april while minimising the machinations of executive dysfunction, in may i'll be doing two streams of a longer game of your choice: divinity fall, cartograph, see issue x

🪀 public post on patreon wrapping up the series: www.patreon.com/posts/wrappe...
two discord messages. satah says, "both of you organically brought up unions & labour organising as important context in your stories & that's not a surprise but it's such an 'oh my god yaaay i'm so glad about who is playing this game for this show YAAAY' moment for me HAHAHA". brianna replies "Omg that's so good. [takes a long drag on a cigarette] the existence of mechs implies the existence of unions." brianna's message has been reacted to by a third party with cry-laughing emojis & a pointing finger for emphasis an arm laying on a table with several representative glyphs drawn on it in black eyeliner a section of a somewhat chaotic paper calendar. the 15th says "L L D R edit" with a sad face. the 16th says "L L D R edit done" with an exclamation point

wrapping up the series in my habitual way: a public post on patreon talking a little bit about the production & a lotta bit about in-episode statistics www.patreon.com/posts/charti...
a mostly inscrutable whiteboard titled "A A T S THEORETICAL CARD ORDER L O L", captioned "i love you whiteboards! i'd be nothing without you whiteboards! yay whiteboards!" two pie charts showing the circumstances in which two different player characters found their various discoveries

basically making the show is like this yeah & it's approximately exactly as nutritious & beautiful as this also
it'll probably be around four hours in total (there are nearly eight hours of raw audio but i am feeling relatively confident looking at it that it's going to be a "sauteeing spinach" situation as soon as i apply a little editing heat lol)

welcome to the editing bay. not naming names, but. one of the producers wanted attention so bad they kept trying to eat hand sanitiser & had to be put full baby mode for anything to get done

with the series wrapping up, there's a public post on patreon with a little bit of card pull data 🤓 www.patreon.com/posts/charti... i understand if you want to put me in stocks in the town square for a while for the inconsistent tarot suit/card suit order in the chart labels... no argument from me

the poll for this month's streamed solo game is ongoing for patrons 🖤 www.patreon.com/posts/poll-g...
a post called "poll: game for november's livestream?" the body of the post reads "this month's livestream is going to be in the afternoon of thursday november 28th. all three of these games involve drawing a map of a structure, because days are lasting approximately three hours right now & it's getting easier & easier to just stay inside: 1. you are the dungeon by tracy barnett 2. the portal at hill house by travis d. hill & lindi m. farris-hill 3. farsickness landing by lonely cryptid media"
