>I'm skeptical
Comment. For one, I know how players can be when padding scores, and thats without being specific to this game, just saying.
Which is why when I did my skills I was very detailed, and made frequent messages to GM with updates and breakdowns.
I can still break down each of his skills, including his +12 device check.
But you didnt ask for a breakdown, you implied doubt and let that sit in the air. Fuck off, there is no doubt, and if there is, lets have it out now.
Go on, ask me. My sheet is in the old nuts discord under bats, 1st pin. Ill wait.

Dude, if you're going to be rode OOC, at least keep it in the designated thread.
Everyone is fucking walking on eggshells because posters act bipolar/narcissistic and take everything personally. I know some of you have emotional sensitivity issues, but you have to try because the rest of us are just here to have fun and dealing with ooc drama is not fun.
It's just a game. Chillax.

>Im "special needs", meaning if I am unable to engage you when you're available I will seek to when you're not, which is part of lends toward me spamming in threads.
You're a grown ass man. You are a sapient humanoid, not an animal. Learn to behave yourself. We are not the short bus staff. We are not your teachers. We are not your therapist. It is not our responsibility to babysit you or accommodate your retarded antics, especially not at the expense of the group's enjoyment or the GM's peace of mind. Saying "im special needs" (as if we didn't already know) sounds incredibly inconsiderate of the effect that you have, like we're just supposed to tolerate it because you're touched in the head.
This game is full of "special needs" autists, but that doesn't excuse being an asshole.
PBP games are inherently slow. You will get no blood from the stone by spamming and trying to engage people when they are not available. It's a fool's errand.
>I may never get over flipping out like a child when I'm upset
Then maybe you should reconsider your path going forward before you further humiliate yourself in front of everyone by flipping out over nonsense. Learn to control yourself, or don't post at all.
>So perhaps as a favor that I can return by having extra degrees of confidence that enable me not sperging in any of the threads
Maybe try not sperging at all.
Think before you post. Compress your posts. Read your posts aloud if you must. Ask yourself if it is appropriate to post what you post before posting it. Ask yourself if it's one of the posts you would immediately regret and delete before posting it.

I went as long as I can stomach without responding to this, so here goes; maximum effort
>OOC rudeness
I will affect to limit my rudeness, but I also council that if rudeness is an objectionable offense then a better standard needs to be levied, as rudeness prevails without my contributions.
>You're a grown-ass man
It would be more accurate to describe me as a perpetual child in the body of a grown-ass man. Again, none of this is intended to excuse, simply to explain. You know how people are all on about puberty blockers causing irrevocable damage? A similar dynamic occurs when you subject a child to horrible shit in and around age 4, a very critical time for social development. So yes, I am grown-ass, but sorry but I AM a child, to some degree.
>that doesn't excuse being an asshole
Begging your pardon, but your posture suggests that there are circumstances where being an asshole is justified. I don't consider instances of righteous and agreeable indignance as being "an asshole", I would describe an asshole as someone being deliberately adversarial.
>maybe you should reconsider
I do, every time there's an instance. I do a very thorough inventory of where I fucked up, what I can attempt to do in the future, as well as a thorough explanation to any affected/injured parties; the ones who speak to me that is.
>think/compress/read aloud
I do already, and the situation will drastically improve now that I have a PC again. Again, none of this is intended to excuse, only to explain.

I don't care how righteous you consider your 1:00 AM Wednesday morning "Go fuck yourself" posts to be. When I see them, and especially, when I know that this is what I have to look forward to every time you post, it makes me not want to play. And I don't. There is a reason I didn't continue anything between then and Saturday.
Stop it.

Whatever positive things you say are clearly invalidated by telling him to fuck off every other week, or apparently also sending him obnoxious DMs in discord about dick sucking.
Just because you leave a compliment here and there doesn't neutralize the negative effect you have on people.

No, I will begrudge it, because it's affecting me.
I never claimed to be free of sin. I am telling you that the way that you respond to GM's graciously-communicated feelings is counterproductive, socially destructive, and annoying to everyone else.
>Unless you want those other records admissible
I really don't give a fuck about 'records'. Stop demoralizing the dungeon master.

I didnt ask you. Thank you for your input tho. If GM wishes to opine at me, I will assume he knows how to reach me. I will also assume he wont reach put to to.me through (you)
Did you think that would work?

And yes, its quite evident where this ramshackle attempt is coming from
Could you not reinforce GM Pone's lack of desire to look at this every day?
Let's talk walking red-flags.
First, you bave Bre Achtungsechsig. He's literally designed to be a problem. Ill mannered, irreverent, somehow unkilled by the dice though I've tempted them on several occasions, he gives 0 fucks and has no reservations telling you. Not an actual threat, unkless you do something stupid like try to force a charm spell on him the moment you meet him, then you're on "the list".
Adeline Adolphine De Fatima Korragar Preston al Thez. Her Fucking HAIR is her red flag. Even less fucks than Brie, more guns and explosives, and about to shoot you probably. We won't get into her, she's just my met excuse to get these characters out of this world if things go south.
But then there's the pony of the goddamn apocalypse. You know, the one who is flippantly dismissive of anything other characters or even GM are doing, acts like they should be catered to because they are there and have a precious fucking schedule that should be catered to.
Yes, Brie is sucking the fun out.

Okay, then lets level, like civilized ponies. This can be done in done in my thread(s), but here is fine.

If true - and as one who doesnt communicate well - then you're honeslty okay. Its one thing to indicate availability, its another tondemand engagement.

It's the GM's game: he's free to run it how he pleases. If you don't like it, why don't you just find another one and be a social parasite elsewhere.

Who are you to be making demands like that?
With respect, (mostly) all players have worn out any favorable feelings; Im sure the feeling is mutual.

You remember when you were a huffy fluffy wufflekins because Posey kept posting pictures of cute bat ponies or whatever that was? Or that time you got extremely mad because Posey did the charm spell on your character? The rest of us didn't entirely understand why you were so upset, but that was besides the point. The point was that it upset you, and for the sake of harmony, we should drop it. Well, I feel the same way about you bitching at me both on board and in discord. To you, sure, it's just fun or justified or just normal or whatever. To me it's demoralizing as all fuck when you do it literally every time I try to play the game.
I don't message you with curses or angry messages. I try to be nice to you because I know that kindness is what you need. Well I need a little too. Or at least, just stop with angry messages multiple times per week.
>>188045
None of the problems are in character. I just don't want angry posts and angry messages directed at me. Well I'd really like it if you didn't feud with Posey in the thread, but I'll handle one thing at a time.
Posey and Cavaliere, who have also contributed towards demoralizing me, have already posted that they recognize the problem and will make changes. See >>188042 → and >>188025 →

I don't remember a single specific bit of feedback on an in game situation since the start of the quest about something that happened in the quest, positive or negative. You will bitch out of character every time I reply or don't reply about how I am on line when I shouldn't be or should be on line when I'm not, or about how I did reply to a skill check or did not respond to a skill check, but I can't remember you saying very much at all about what is happening in the quest. I don't know if that's because you genuinely aren't interested or engaged or have anything to say, or if it's because when you do talk about it, it's drowned out by you yelling at me every. single. time. we play, whether you play or don't, whether i respond to your posts or not. And that's my point. The point is that there are too many angry posts directed at me and it's a very serious issue.
Within the past 7 days you told me to go fuck myself on the board, you messaged me angrily about not pinging you because I made a reply, and you messaged me telling me to "stop sucking Posey's cock." In 7 days. With one day of play.
I am asking you - no, begging you. Pleading with you - to stop messaging or posting on the board about how angry you are at me for every single tiny thing I do or do not do. It's demoralizing. It makes me want to quit.
I made a post for Brie a week ago. >>187833 →. In it, I detailed that Brie's skill check succeeded. A couple posts before that, I detailed specifics about the kind of explosive and its properties. The only response I've gotten has been a post telling me to go fuck myself. Reply to that post with something that isn't just being angry at me and I'll reply to that. In the meantime, you're showing that you have no intent to acknowledge my effort posts.

I can give you all the specifics, including the lead-up and all the surrounding circumstances, but you're right that it doesnt matter anymore
But can it not be about prompting (you)/GM about "What your character wants to do next"? Because that creates a culture of incentivized irresponsibility; one which I willlfully played at (and won't).
Shut the FUCK up unless GM prompts you. Its for him, its for (you), and its for the other players.
What? We were presuming to speak for GM in this thread weren't we?

Changing the topic...
What do other players want to spend their reward money on?
For me, it depends on what level we are at when we end the adventure, but I'm considering some +1 Grotesque Fearsome barding. Maybe some necromancy scrolls if I don't level up enough to cast those spells myself. A Night caller, a Ring Of Desecration or a Rod Of Undead Mastery could be nifty. I also want to set aside some gold for a Founding Legacy Ritual, to further enhance the Tiara after I analyze it for its powers.
Oh, land is an option. I intend to buy up Curwhinny's farm, if I can convince Mr. Glass that the "endemic curse" is a bigger liability than the land is worth. Not sure how much that would cost, but once I have a secure underground facility I could do some fun things, like create monsters and store them underground.
What do other players want to spend their reward money on?
For me, it depends on what level we are at when we end the adventure, but I'm considering some +1 Grotesque Fearsome barding.

Kira doesn't really have any plans for the money, she's a new arrival from a society that used a barter system and she still doesn't fully understand how much Bits are actually worth; instead of arriving to Baltimare with currency already in her bags, she arrived with a collection of hoof-made jewelry of gold and jade, foreign coins, and other valuables given to her to trade for local currency, AKA Bits. She'll probably just hold onto it until she finds something to spend it on as right now it's the reputation from completing the quest that's more important to her.
Silver, meanwhile, has a number of things to spend it on. The house needs an expansion so he has enough bedrooms for all of the NPCs he's collected, he needs to fund the expedition he's gonna go on with Pear Faucet to look for the Tree of Life, if things go well with this quest and he ends up with the Kostroma and the commie ponies he needs to ensure all of them are taken care of, and finally if there's enough left over he wants to buy a workshop to turn into a smithy, both for passive income to support his household and also so all the characters can get some powerful hoof-made gear in addition to the loot we get on our adventures.

Yes, I get it. You want Posey to talk to you. You hope that by acting up, you can put pressure on him to do it. I sort of understand it
But it isn't going to work. If anything, you're just pushing him away by acting belligerant constantly. He'd be more likely to like you if you acted normal.
And more importantly - this isn't the place for your personal drama. Your belligerence is hurting everyone, including you. Keep the drama between you two somewhere else.

Are you sure you want to invite this discussion now? I think it would be better suited to all after a few days but
^Fuckitall, lets get messy
>Posey to talk to me
No, I want to at least know where I went wrong with him so I can at least avoid doing so in the future. Frens are very few for people 'like me' and I especially hate when I still love the ones who hate me. Hate me all you want, ;m used to it.
>Not the place for my personal drama
no it isn't. So leave me alone unless you wanna conribute to whoever the fuck it is, cuz I aready defaulted Brie to GM and am OUT

I've mentioned the idea before, but I still wonder what everyone thinks of it: mithril and adamantium - especially with regards to D&D - are the fantasy terms for titanium and tungsten, respectively.

I always saw mythril as titanium, and adamantine as uranium, but idk
Tungsten, cobalt, and a bunch of other finer metals seem to land more in the masterwork material. But Adamanitite is supposed to be second to none for hardness. Idk where that compares to diamond, but as metals go Id say thats uranium

Apparently, raw tungsten is brittle and hard to work with, but when purified it rates at a 7.5 on the Mohs hardness scale which is stronger than steel, while being malleable enough to be easy to work. Google's AI overview thing says it can rate anywhere from 7.5-9 on the scale, but I don't know if it's lying. Diamond is 10 on the scale, but apparently it's possible to get materials that are even higher than 10 through very specific circumstances, like from meteor impacts.

Adamantine is not heavier than steel. It weighs the same as steel, but is as hard as diamond.
Also, I resent comparing mythic fictional metals to mundane real metals.
