I got filtered so hard by that game but damn it's pretty

I think more options and variety is the answer. Like, the board game post was an attempt at that. I haven't had the time to do it again. Hopefully we can pull in more people before I have to crash into bed

I look forward to these a little too much, is the issue. When we have to skip or it feels like a session wasn't great, it really hits me for a while.

cute!

my group usually runs because I don't care if I'm down a player (it's usually the same guy who doesn't show up)

one of my favorite shmups! I honestly think it's better than its parody subject Gradius

fighting with my wife everyday is eating me alive. And I can't even drive off a hill because my son needs me. We're both just so tired and fed up with being broke

If anyone has an idea for how to approach this, let me know! Or if you've seen any good systems for this idea, I'd love to read them!

It is tempting to use an OSR style system for the online game, then a separate one for the offline characters. That sounds like too much on the players to remember, though.

I am very thankful for the people who keep in contact with me after all these years. Through forums, Skype, IRC, mumble, discord, etc., we've had some way to communicate.
