I don’t even think it was that part but the part where they showed Trump saying he was doing great and talking about WH renovations when asked about how he was grieving his friend’s death

Put Outer Wilds on the top row for me; Stanley Parable is a great one too.

If you haven’t seen them yet, Pointy Hat has several videos on liches. A focus on d&d but the concepts are superb and not wholly married to any system.
The bard lich in particular comes to mind for a non-physical phylactery

I’m curious, how well (in your opinion) does something like GURPS Thaumatology Ritual Path Magic capture the feeling of Mage The Ascension?

This is super cool, love seeing other’s characters in GURPS.
Question, as I was unfamiliar with the size discount on ST, but shouldn’t you get Move+1 due to gigantism? Which would have given you the size limitation discount on your ST?

Was it at least a good bad film where you can enjoy how bad it is? A la the 2020 Monster Hunter film

I absolutely loved that episode, but to your point, not because it was meant to be Pac-Man. Though it did seem quite close to the new Pac-Man game which got announced (last week?)

Speaking of Dumas, there was also a new Count of Monte-Cristo which was thoroughly enjoyable

Yeah that's fair. I was playing around with the AP rules from The Last Gasp Pyramid article to get some ebbs and flows in the combat as well, but I'll have a look at the stance rules. I assume they're in Martial Arts? Unless you're referring to the posture rules?

What is your top rule (or rules) for avoiding the move and attack loop?

Small correction. It should be:
C = (M / (1 - M))^2 -1
Otherwise you end up with a negative answer. Though the original 1 - … was more aesthetically pleasing to me haha
C = (M / (1 - M))^2 -1

So the 1.01, 1.1, etc., are only arbitrary in the sense that they're the upper limit of multiplier that that class of starport should ever have.
And the other numbers are just whatever is needed for that multiplier to be 1 when you have 1 planet in trade.

This gives us this formula for the constant:
N - (M / (R - M))^2 = C [where R is the resulting modifier in previous reply)
And since N and R are both 1 (multiplier of 1 when you have 1 planet) the usable formula is something like:
C = 1 - (M / (1 - M))^2
2/2
N - (M / (R - M))^2 = C [where R is the resulting modifier in previous reply)

Let's say the general formula for this multiplier calculation is:
M - (M / sqrt(C + N))
M is the maximum result you could have, e.g. for class A starports that would be 2. N is the number of planets in trade, and C is a constant which means having 1 planet N = 1 gives you a multiplier of 1
1/2
M - (M / sqrt(C + N))

GURPS Lite is free and has most of the basic rules needed for a game :)
I’d also recommend Chris Normand’s series on YT, that helped me get started.

Most of the complexity (at least what I’ve experienced) have come from creating characters, but tools like GCS makes that much easier, especially when tweaking a concept.
Chris Normand has a good intro series on YouTube which captures the toolkit, build-as-you-go approach to learning
