im not sure if ill do anything to edit that which blooms in the dark, honestly
there are a few things id like to change a bit, but ultimately, i think i should leave it be
errata isnt really necessary for it, but i do think its a little vague on the lore it provides, like on contracting

back to fiwbposting, that funny little game about hunters was really fun and id like to make more games like that (yknow, shorter ones with more niche scopes)
but im struggling
and thats okay, but all of my ideas become more grandiose than id like
im not sure how to remedy this, but im working on it

i try not to get political on this account, because its not something i really enjoy discussing. i do feel the need to say something at this point though, after seeing the general reaction and behavior surrounding recent events.

im not really sure how to put this succinctly and well, so thread time

Question for the GMs, writers, and worldbuilders out there;

Are there any heavily magic abrogationist (aka, anti-magic) movements in your setting?

Stuff such as groups that reject magic or individuals who want to outlaw it?

What, if anything, lives in space" in your setting?

I'm sure my homies with sci-fi settings have got plenty for this question, but I'm very curious what the Fantasy writers have.

Hello #ttrpgsky!

It's cleaning time for my #ttrpg #starterpack, removing a few inactive accounts and adding some new and exciting folks.

Does anyone have any recommendations on who to add?

public service announcement all of my text posts are threads lmao

also, first picture on this account i guess. i made a sketch of soritae, one of the main protagonists of fuck it we ball's narrative. she's a magical creature that eats the magic rocks in peoples' bones for fun (read: because she got hungry)
not sure what kinds of tags to use here, so:

been a bit, so update time i guess
ive rewritten a lot of the important mechanics, like rolling dice and the like. with this fresh start, ive also realized that ive been streamlining things too much and its made the game far too simple for my liking. so, to combat this, im changing things. #ttrpg

#ttrpg hot take: it's very okay to learn from and have opinions about games that you've read but not played.

A ttrpg can be experienced in many ways. There are games that influenced me and my opinions before I ever played them. I still haven't played some of them.

Don't gatekeep yourself from art!

i dont want to leave everyone in the dark when i dont post for a while (longer than usual) so ill go ahead and make it known.
fuck it we ball's main document was just lost forever, along with all of its backups. there might be an older version somewhere in my discord alt DMs
June 26, 2025 at 10:06 AM
havent posted in a while but your mother
anyway, ive been thinking about crafting mechanics a lot lately, and whether or not i want to include them in fuck it we ball
ive elected that i do want them in the game and i want them to be sufficiently good so here we are

say hi to the previously mentioned fiwbpost!
so ive come to a realization in the past few weeks and that's that currently, fiwb's mechanics are fucking CLUNKY
so ive spent these past few weeks cleaning up those mechanics and trying to maintain the intrigue of them without making it wack #fiwb #ttrpg

i feel i need to make this explicitly clear in advance: if you engage with generative artificial intelligence, dont engage with me
i dont like the resource costs of these services
i dont agree with the sentiment that publicly facing art should be free to use for training
expect a fiwbpost soon :)
