Today i spent far too much time trying to learn the math of stardates just to find out they werent consistent across all the series's. Oh well the disillusionment continues forever onward into adulthood. Random D&D thought: based off of interviews and discussions of rules i have decided the only correct way to do death saves is for the DM to roll them covertly and let you know if you are up, down, or dead. With more info, in this scenario, means worse roleplay. If you KNOW that your buddy can fail 2 more saves, the pressure isnt there to save them, but if you dont know how close they are to dying you must act accordingly.

I have had a very interesting week between gettibg elbowed in the nose by my sleeping spouse to fixing things my coworker is breaking i have not been idle. I have discovered a way to do basically my whole job from the comfort of my basement and look forward to taking full advantage of this. I have awesome friends who i adore and wish they lived closer, but alas i am destined to solitude of outer darkness/st louis, misery. One day i hope to be able to hang out with each and every one of them in person again. You know who you are.

I do not know the plan for this, but i am going to go on a long diatribe about how runescape is the greatest mmorpg ever made and has yet to be surpassed in modern gaming. When i was a young warthog, i found runescape. I played it every day i could for years. I spent a long LONG time killing goblins in lumbridge before eventually realizing there was more to life and started doing quests. Back then there was little the internet could do to facilitate this process so i had to do more than a few the old fashion way, by actually reading the dialogue. The sheer volume of options in runescape however made it a very open game and one that no other company has even attempted to replicate. The closest to it being eve online, which has a very large array of options but in which combat is almost always a necessity. Long story short runescape had something for everyone where every other mmorpg fits a specific niche that ends up not being enough fpr long term retention.
