Just tell them that A) it’s DuckTales, and B) it has David Tennant. What more could they want?

I have a request for all #DuckTales 2017 fans: -
seeing another round of "don't favorite posts on fedi" -
seeing another round of "don't favorite posts on fedi"it’s true that it doesn’t particulary increase the distribution of your post
This is also just a very mastodon-centric view of things. It is neither inherently true, nor true on all existing platforms. It’s just the way that Mastodon developers decided to implement things. On Lemmy, an up-vote increases the post/comment ranking and increases redistribution. On NodeBB, a like forces the server to retain the the post beyond the server’s remote content purge threshold. Other platforms could do things different still, and likely already do.
The fediverse isn’t synonymous with Mastodon. It never was, and it never will be.

What's the best GMing advice you've ever received?would you be okay with a player lying (fudging) a dice result to facilitate a result that they found more fun?
Thank you. No GM is going to accept their players declaring a bad roll to be a good one, instead. Cheating players is one of the more common GM complaints. I’m not sure why GMs seem to think that’s a one-way street.

What's the best GMing advice you've ever received?When I have DM’d there’s often a difference between the intended difficulty of an encounter I create versus how it actually works out in play.
Players are allowed to flee. Enemies are allowed to mock them and walk away.
I’m not sure why basically ever single discussion I ever see about GMing seems to live in this world where the only options in combat is “PCs die or NPCs die”, and the only workaround is to pick and choose when you’re playing a probability game.

What's the best GMing advice you've ever received?mr_noxx@lemmy.ml Honestly, I agree with the others. I don’t know why we’re playing dice games if we don’t want to adhere to the dice. The dice create the uncertainty and variation that the play at the table responds to.
The more honest and transparent solution to players being at risk of dying is roleplay or narrative transition. Enemies don’t need to be doing coup de graces, and going down in combat can mean capture rather than death. But if it’s only fun for everyone if they’re winning, then why not play something else where losing is never an option?

Ed Zitron's a fantastic journalist, capable of turning a close read of AI companies' balance-sheets into an incandescent, exquisitely informed, eye-wateringly profane rant:Cory Doctorow Yup. The only thing capitalists ever innovate is new ways to take other peoplems money. The efficiency they tout us always the efficency of miney transfers from us to them.
