Critical Knowledge (Mon 7:30pm EST)

Described as my most chaotic game, which is saying something. I used to get apologies for this game "never getting to the plot" but I love that most of the plot is 100% player decision. I can do very little prep for this game but frequently have to think things up on the fly.

Pack Tactics (Tues 7pm EST)

Yes, this game is less chaotic than Crit Knowledge, in spite of it being an all-kobold campaign with as much Spelljammer as I could convert to 5e. The party accidentally lost the moon early on, but they got it back. Now they've recently built giant robots that are certainly not infringing on any Power Ranger IP.

Critical Recovery (Sat 5pm EST)

I could say this is the most "normal" of my campaigns, but that still leaves a lot of room for chaos. The party started off being resurrected by a god who made a bargain with each of them under what is now known to be false pretenses. Now they've created a new god by helping a celestial guardian ascend using a convoluted series of plot points and somehow need to stop the first god from trying to kill them. Again. Oh, and the monk has an item that if broken could destroy the world. Said item wants to be broken.

Can today be a day where we are kind to each other?

I'd like that.

Hey, I made a "rules light" TTRPG named Kobolds In Space! (With a lot of help from my friends, mind you!)

I've also made a couple collections of 5e compatible magical items, complete with write-ups by Mox the Kobold Paladin!

The best part is, they're free! (Or $2, or pay-what-you-want, whatever.)

You can get them all here: https://crashthedm.itch.io/

Yes, hello.

I would like

To buy

The right words to say.

The ones that will make

My friends

Feel

About themselves

The way I feel

About them.

Yes, please wrap them carefully.

I'm not skilled at that either.

Admin is sleeping, post happy birthday to admin.

Toad is not a unit of measurement.

No, I couldn't think of a better title for this one. I name the sessions before we record and Erik had a cupcake with him at the time.

I just did a dramatic reveal in #dnd that I had been planning for MONTHS.

So satisfying.

There were multiple epic speeches. One of them was ruined by a PC with their own epic speech, but that was the Trusted Lieutenant of the Big Bad so no one cared.

"Oh, god, I'm going to sound like a YouTuber."

- A person who was streaming on YouTube at the time.

I thought one of the fans in my tower's radiator was going bad because I was hearing a wobbling sound.

It wasn't anything in my computer.

It's a fan in my monitor.

Today is a day for ​.

Unless anyone in the group is not feeling well enough to play.

There will be no "play without me" allowed, as this is the climatic end of a campaign that started in May 2020.

If someone can't play, we wait until next week. No one gets left behind.

"20% of the time, it works 20% of the time."

"Up to 10% or more could literally be any number."

"I'll miss Billy and his inquisitive nature."

"Sonic Heroes: Your life can't always be good."

I didn't know watching Game Grumps playing Tricky Towers was what I needed at the end of my day, but here I am.
