@HeyeBodo Euer #OpenTable hat für mich den Wiedereinstieg in ein verschüttet geglaubtes Hobby bedeutet. Und die Tatsache, dass ich hier so viele unterschiedliche Spielsysteme und -stile testen durfte und darf, finde ich ganz groß.

Das neugierige 'ich gucke mir das mal an, bezweifle aber, dass das was für mich ist', hat sich nicht bewahrheitet. Und ich gehe jetzt sogar auf die erste #pnp Con meines Lebens 🤦🏼‍♂️

Wer bei uns am #OnlineOpenTable mitspielen möchte, wir suchen insbesondere noch weitere SL. Wir spielen mit dem Regelwerk von #ShadowdarkRPG und sind old-schoolig unterwegs.

Wir haben einen Kontinent mit verschiedenen Regionen, wo ihr euch austoben könnt. Platz für weitere ist immer irgendwo.

Das Gute am #OpenTable: Es gibt keine Verpflichtung, jedesmal mitzuspielen oder regelmäßig was anzubieten. Hop-on, hop-off.

Mehr Info im Wiki: campaignwiki.org/wiki/Valravn/ – oder pingt mich gern hier an. 🙃

Das Bild zeigt eine stilisierte Karte einer fiktiven Welt. Es gibt große Landmassen in Gelb und Grün, die von einem blauen Ozean umgeben sind. Verschiedene Orte sind mit Namen in serifenloser Schrift beschriftet, darunter "Dunkelheim", "Geweih-Halbinsel", "Brandonsford", "Irthuin", "Weite der Finsternis", "Die Flecken", "Mithruin" und "Borealios". Die Karte wirkt detailliert, aber nicht allzu realistisch, mit gezackten Küstenlinien und unterschiedlich geformten Landmassen. Bereitgestellt von @altbot, generiert mit Gemini

John Brown of Haddington, explains the commandments, and vain expenditures. Malachi and Nehemiah show excessive spending murders the poor (by using up aid). It banishes the gospel.

Can spending be critiqued without being able to give exact dollar amount which is too high?. Give Brown’s answer today, and you may be thrown from the nearest mountaintop.

How can you protect the poor and support the gospel today?

"Q. Wherein lieth the evil of expending on vain apparel, unnecessary food, furniture, &c., what should be set apart for pious uses? — A. Hereby we murder the poor, banish the gospel, starve the ministers of Christ, and souls of men, that our intempe-rance, pride, and other lusts, may be satisfied, Neh. xili. 10, 11, Mal iii. 8, 9."

Schon krass. Als ich mit meinem #opentable angefangen habe, war ich etwas skeptisch, ob das funktioniert mit wechselnden Spielern. Jetzt ist die Anmeldung für Oktober gerade 48h Stunden alt und der Tisch ist voll. Das Feedback ist klar: Viele Leute würden gerne #ttrpg spielen, aber finden den Einstieg nicht. Ich bin äußerst dankbar für die vielen netten Menschen, denen ich diesen Einstieg ermöglichen konnte und die neuen Freunde, die ich dabei kennen lernen durfte. Auf zu neuen Abenteuern! #dnd

I wonder if I really need to do a session report all the time. Maybe I am going to make this a short regular thing where I am going to go through all the sessions each month and just briefly run down who played, what happened, who died, and what notable things they got.

Session 2 had them delve into Castle Dyson again, at first somewhat hindered by a pack of wild dogs that decided to make a feast out of the goblins they left lying around the week before…

(ohhh, I need to define them better, I see it now, it’s a special breed of dogs that came after most humans left the area after the fall of the Empire… They are called Glimmerdogs, and clearly they are hardy enough to survive in the horrendous wilderness of the Glimmermark)

… but they were quickly shooed away, and made no problems, full of goblin meat as they were.

Below they started to investigate the other direction than last time when they killed the local goblins, managed to hide away when some more goblins came by, despoiled a gravesite, and fought a group of half-formed skeletons.

In the end they came away with quite a lot of treasure.

Session 3 started similar, only they noticed someone had at least moved the goblin bodies to the side. They delved a bit further into the first level, despoiled some more graves, tried to find some treasure, fough a rather hardy zombie/mummy hidden in a sarcophagus, and then decided to explore deeper into an opening of a cave system where they found another exit, and a group of easily killed giant rats. There also was a some hissing sound when they tried to go a different direction, but that they left alone for now. They left through the lower exit, with rather less spoils altogether (mostly a bunch of copper and silver coins), although they gained their first magic weapon from the one undead they fought.

We were using mipui for mapping, which was fine, even though it was a bit fiddly. Dyson’s maps are a bit difficult to map at the best of times, and this one had a natural cave system with dimensions that were simply not easy to describe and/or depict in mipui. In the end it worked, but it took somewhat longer than it could have.

One of the things I find nice about the games on the Grenzland server is that they are generally time-limited to just two hours, which fits much better with an adult’s life than a lot of games that go longer, but just need more time commitment. In comparison to the standard 3-4 hours of my Shadowrun game these games are much less draining for me. Now don’t get me wrong, I love roleplaying, and I like DMing, but a normal roleplaying session is emotionally exhausting for me. This particular style of gaming is much less so.

Alex’ Reports for Session 2 and Session 3

Open Table: If you are interested in a very basic OSR-game, this game is intended as an open table, and iI try to have one session each week on Tuesday (sometimes Wednesday), so maybe sign up for it on the Grenzland Discord server or our IRC network. Games are German or English, 120minuts, and take place at 8.15pm

OpenTable says it won't allow anonymous reviews anymore. In an email to those who've previously posted comments, the reservations platform said the goal of including first names and photos on all reviews was to "give you even greater confidence in the reviews — and when booking a new restaurant.” Initial reports said that old reviews would be retroactively updated, but after a user backlash, these will remain anonymous. Here's more from Bleeping Computer. What do you think of the plan to remove anonymity from reviews?

Avoid the Hack! :donor:

Your anonymous #OpenTable #reviews will soon display your first name

On 22 May, anonymous reviews will display users first names for “transparency.” This also will apply retroactively.

So, if you’ve ever posted an anonymous review on the site and don’t want your name displayed, you may want to delete your reviews.
