I see your Jorune and raise you an EPT (okay so it's the Different Worlds edition...)

It doesn't *have* to but it probably will 🫡

OTE 3rd edition (1st/2nd if you want crunchier rules), but may still not be kiddo friendly. Feng Shui, not crunchy but definitely leans to hidden society and actiony

The previous evening l had played an Offinim in In Nominee, which was guidelined as a hyperactive, action oriented character.

Both fitted a frenetic energy I can channel and felt like a 'type', but not one I would usually play

I had the pleasure of playing opposite you in the final game, having bumped a place because of a missing GM. I picked my character from the 3 remaining on the idea that I often play scientist types but not kids, so I took the Survivor.
The character notes called for naive and enthusiastic

Understandable and happy to confirm that the use of AI in Duolingo is not a 'scales from the eyes' revelation of the power of modern tech but more like a McDonald's burger 'meh' of low fibre education 😄

I have an annual pass to Duolingo and can confirm it is proudly using AI and that the constant restructure of courses interferes with getting a deeper language understanding. It's OK for quick intro and vocab.

Cyberpunk 2.0.2.0 used crossword grids to map the net architecture for hacking runs. This is another neat way to expand the idea. I especially like the inspiration of using the answers to generate a meta structure to have the dungeon break out of tropes your personal style may be leading you to

Washing up, taking the bins out or upgrading the CC3+ core without breaking all the products layered onto it?

"brought to you in living color"? I don't think I had a rule book with interior colour plates until the late 80s (Shadowrun or Earth dawn I think, possibly Feng Shui). No wonder they were doing a better marketing job

As an honorary Yorkshire man I am obliged to point out that a dead Yorkshire woman can achieve in 6 months everything that all the other Reform councillors have achieved combined!
