Bourdain might be the only outsider who really understood what the church was in #over/under.

Absolutely phenomenal character. You were a real joy to have in the game.
Spent the entirety of the last two weeks pretending I was Anthony Bourdain
Here is a link to the full compilation and a retrospective at the end:

"THE WORLD IS FUCKED, BUT PLAY ENDURES."
Very pleased with how #MothershipMonth25 shook out! All On Red is moving into its final draft stage, we’re starting on stretch goal writing, got some plans for Glue Trap Games going forward, and made a bunch of new pals from #Over/Under. The world is fucked, but play endures.

i kept seeing the tempest (merc/soldier) faction in #over/under use the words "mercy" and "consequence" and i was like... that seems... familiar.

It turns out that Tan (@tjslotus.bsky.social) and Otso's friendship was so profound that it literally changed Tempest's narrative internal code.

In 2006 a high school English teacher asked students to write to a famous author & ask for advice.

KURT VONNEGUT - born 103yrs ago today - was the only one to respond.

His reply was a doozy.

This game genuinely feels like we packed a 3-year-long campaign into a month and are now trying to decompress from it
Four hours after the end of #over/under and people are still in the After/Party section, secondary voice chats, private DMs, and three-to-five separate servers talking about the game, the characters, the players, the moments. What an incredible experience. What a ride. A game-changing kind of month.

not a stretch to say that this won the game for all of us, even if we didn't know it
For @samsorensen.bsky.social's #OVER/UNDER I created WEATHERVANE, an in-universe themed combat simulator. Using it, our faction was able to predict the outcome of any battle with a high degree of confidence. It helped us price mercenary contracts and go into any combat knowing the expected outcomes.

my character, the young pope Metropolitan Sampsa, is now marrying big_dog beefstink, leader of the hacker collective, in the final hour of the game. it's all gay drama in #over/under turns out
"toxic gay drama in #over/under will never come for me" i said. "it is out there somewhere but my poor sampsa will never get roped up in it." i was wrong. it comes for all of us

could everyone please help my cardinals elect a new space pope. it isn't healthy for them to be stuck in a conclave. they only do this when they are very distressed
i dunno how they're talking about it out on the Dream because i'm sequestered but take it from me: this is all you need to know about the conclave so far #over/under

My neighbors are cutting down two beautiful cypress trees and I'm genuinely so sad. They're incredibly tall and they give us a lot of shade and they were gorgeous to look at and my desk has a very clear view of the butchery and I'm verklempt.
