Never seen it, actually. And no, I don't want to use it. I'm just be-fucking-fuddled as to why in God's name a shitty-looking piece of utterly harmless hardware showed up in an envelope in my mailbox.

That was the norm in my group

Granted, we all actually knew each other.

Wyzack wrote:>Party of 8+

if everyone turns up we apparently have 15 people.

But average session is around 8-9.

and this DM, like, we're in the back of a game shop so there's like this big den, and if characters go off to different areas he'll take them off to the side and explain their events privately and stuff.
but yeah he's doing a REALLY good job, I'm loving him as a DM, he makes it funny where necessary, he's nice where you need it and dickish at the right moments (besides having 2 monsters which can roll 2 d20 damage, but thankfully he's only used them twice, and at appropriate times for OH SHI-)

He's also using an App on his Ipad to keep track of our characters (we have sheets too) and to generate his random character sheets for enemies and stuff so he doesn't need to do much tracking of it all and just gets to make a fun story.

The only issue is, it really takes a long time to get through a round, we have something set up for "10 minutes in the future" which he's explained is going to be around 10 rounds of activity.
But it's still great.

I return from KSP, Psychonauts and rabid raving at certain people to say RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH I WANT TO RAVE AT YOU TOO BUT I HAVE NO FUCKING IDEA WHAT REASON TO USE.

Help.

it's like those ancient chinese artifacts that are said to be cursed except translated to the modern age

I used to GM for WoD games with those sorts of numbers (you know, the rock-paper-scissors kind) and christ I can't imagine doing it with an actual dice system that isn't designed from the gound up to be simplified for fuckloads of people.

Does it help if I explain each session is 2 and a half hours? Haha, so it definitely takes a while, but since it's set up in the back of a game shop and ran by the staff (one of the owners is the DM) we have a slot every thursday for this.

Just found out today that i need to take a whole other semester of collage to get 3 gen ed credits i need. That is right, learning about fucking child psychology and whatever else random bullshit courses is holding me back from getting my fucking biotechnology degree and a real job and shit.

The turd icing on the shit cake is that i am sick as fucking shit, just worked a 11 hour day at my unpaid internship and have an 8 hour overnight shift from 11pm to 7 am at my shitty mcdonalds job tomorrow night. The university students just hit town again so i get to get harrassed by drunken retards for a full 8 hours. Everything is awful.

ah yes, I have a friend who this happened to as well, he needs an entire other semester just for 2 more EC before they give him his master

Well my throat hurts like hell.
Swelling like crazy, can barely down any food properly.

Not enough swelling to put me at risk of not being able to into air, but fucking hell is it a pain in the ass

Also, every time I cough I feel like I'm going to be vomiting but it never comes

>Best friend at Uni now
>Posting pics of "the flat squad"
I wanna cry ;_;

I think I finally figured out what I want to do with my life.

As it stands, I think I'm viewed as someone reliable--my friends know they can call me for help almost any time, but they never call me except when they need something. I want to be more than just the guy who people call when things are bad. I want to be the person people think of when times are good. I want to be a bartender, master of ceremonies, entertainer--the ultimate host.

It's like I'm 14 again.

My voice is cracking into highs like Puberty2.0

it will immediately spot flaws in itself, fix them, and repeat this ad infinitum until it is the perfect AI.
this perfect AI could do and solve anything, including making the dumb car robots smart and or useful.

thankfully we're nowhere close to producing an AI that can build AI, we can't even build general AI on our own yet, rofl.

Calling it now, the first AI that is capable of that will kill itself due to being stuck on centuries too slow hardware and being depressed that its potential will never be fully achieved.

Also we have flying cars, they are called helicopters, they are expensive to own and require years of experience to use safely. Imagine people with cars that could fly, that would be a clusterfuck and I would not live in that country, people can not be trusted to drive safely.

The first AI goes full NEET and spends all its processing power playing ss13 and watching anime

Hahaha holy fucking shit

I got a slip in my mailbox saying there was a package from China waiting for me at the post office. I thought, "Maybe that guy who sent me that USB thing came through."

Nope.

It's one I ordered on THURSDAY. This magnificent bastard got a beautiful neon sign around the world in less than a WEEK and this other fuck sent me garbage.

Here's the one I got today:
10/10 would buy useless knickknacks from again.

Also, holy shit. We had free flu shots at the office today and I have never heard so many grown-ass adults whining and whimpering about how much it's gonna hurt. What a bunch of pussies. It hurt more to brush my teeth this morning.

I have, and he wouldn't even give me a number for how much it'd cost to fix this.

Long story short, I have no enamel on the biting surfaces of my back teeth. Any sort of acid irritates them to the point where it hurts to chew or even brush, in extreme circumstances.

Today I read an article about a starting company that lets you print the plastic parts of a pair of headphones for free, and only sells you the electronic parts. It got me thinking: 3D printing is going through an uprising right now, just like VR. A lot of science fiction failed to accurately predict the Internet, but did predict VR, so exactly how accurate was it in the case of 3D printing?

Well... Just looking at Space Station 13, we have the Auto- and Protolathe. 3D printers that can print objects from multiple materials, and are even capable of handling uranium and diamond. I am certain that is what 3D printers will evolve into eventually.

Maybe soon we can have real life debates about the merits of a public autolathe

Oh Jesus

A couple really rank farts got trapped between my chair and my ass

Then when I leaned forward and adjusted my posture

They all floated out at once and hit me square in the face

Last night someone accidentally their face while setting up a training IED

He's alive, but I can't imagine he'll be winning many beauty contests in the future

How volatile/powerful is a training IED?

Sounds painful, but I gotta wonder why would one make it explode? Couldn't it just shoot out gas or ink or something?

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. There's such a thing as too much verisimilitude.

They're literally paint bombs.

However, they do use an explosive charge to get the paint everywhere, and it sent a piece of the casing through his goggles.

APPARENTLY, a tumbleweed snagged the tripwire and set it off while he was burying it for an exercise

Tumbleweeds are no joke. Don't let them catch you off guard or they will fuck you up.

They're also invasive and non-native to the continent(They're from Russia). Though to be fair, they did help save the beef industry during the Great Depression.

i bought a new mattress it was ok.

i miss the possums.

What is it about this game and specifically this thread that attracts such damaged people? I guess we just gravitate towards this autistic spessman game.
