So much this. It gets at something more elemental around objective preference but the game version is so pure. Being able to work with things in the four quadrants of strong/weak design and preferred/not preferred is the difference between design and fandom.

The Vaesen multi-table epic. 30 players splitting into missions by type and rearranging the tables. Unsurprisingly, I chose the puzzle room.

Someone at one of my Thursday tables said he was excited to play “Something something wicked wig.” I told him to get all the stuff that would disrupt other games out of his system on that one.

Fireball, 16oz. Served in a 10oz glass.

Just read “all the dykes at the Walmart pier” to the tune of Walk Like an Egyptian and that’s why I shouldn’t Bluesky before bed because now my brain is going to write the rest of that song with or without me.

When I was a kid I would see “Exit Only” signs on the interstate and wonder why they didn’t build another ramp so the people who lived on those exits could get back on.

You could. I would go with Zodiacground because it is more fun to say.

Exploding dice probabilities are beautiful.

The series is 1/n repeated n-1 times, then 0 then 1/n^2 repeated n times then 0 then 1/n^3 n times, and on and on.

So 4 is 1/4, 1/4, 1/4, 0 ,1/16, 1/16, 1/16, 0, 1/64...

P for an entry on the table is always 1/n^(number of dice you have rolled) or 0.

I dearly want room 4 to be exactly room 3 but with a shadow hiding in the skeletons.

This is both heartening for the content and disappointing because the shirt in question was not the art from the article. I want upset that you are disturbing girl time Cthulhu.
