I'm much the same. It feels like I don't get my inspo until 11pm or as I call it the Witching Hour. I usually end up going to sleep at 2am.

Facebook, unfortunately. And I guess Instagram

1. Because I needed a break from Facebook. I need to get off of there like yesterday.

I use non-photo blue lead for base sketches and then black lead over it, scan. I don't "ink" other than the scan to CPS mainly because I'm sort of bad at it.

Yeah i wish I didn't use it so much. Trying to curtail its use.

That I've found my space as a storyteller and creator by way of GMing. Knowing that I'm good what I do really boots the confidence.

Ugh yeah it's like my brain can't work until I'm either stressed, exhausted, or both. Worst superpower ever.

Hello! Thanks for the response. Yes, I was just gauging how activity there is in the gaming room after the vendor hall closes. I usually have to do a decent amount of prep for games.

Thanks! I tried Torment back when it was released and didn't think it was my cup of tea because I like party-based adventures, but perhaps it's time to take another look!

Lots of heavy questions here so I'll offer two. One serious, one fun. Your choice: 1. What would you say to the children of the world today? 2. What DnD class would you pick?

I know exactly how you feel. In 2016-2020 especially I found out who people were. It was heartbreaking because some of these people were family.

That is kind of you, thanks. Doing it with a great team. I'll post playtest opportunities at some point.

Level 3. Sort of came late to the hobby (College) and never had any patience (or frankly money) for the prewritten modules. Been working on a system with my team for the past 7 years. Setting has been in development for ...wow, 21 years.

I'm with you, honestly. But we got you here so that's a step in the right direction. Chin up; there'll be happiness in Nottingham again one day.

In 2008, I ran a "finale" for four separate campaigns that had been running in some form or another for 5 years. 18 players, 28 different player characters. Here's what I did after: 1. Swear to do it never again. 2. Do it again, but 7 years later

This is one of only 2 comics I collect regularly. It's such a great read.

WIth no hesitation, Final Fantasy 4 (2 in the US). It wa the first game that had a long-form STORY and made me realize that games could be a medium for storytelling.
