It seems that my (current) main account was banned as part of that cleaning.

Can you or another moderator let me know what’s the process of appealing this ban ? Or shall I take-it as an opportunity to move my main account to piefed ?

Life pro tip,

Get a reccurent planning, eg every second Wednesday from 19 to 23or first Saturday from 14 to dawn ., and play with missing players. Solve most of the planning issues

You should cross post to !forumlibre@jlai.lu I believe some francophones would enjoy that one

I don’t get group who can’t play when one player it missing. We all know that life happens. If a player miss, we play without them, if she GM miss, we do a one shot

Might be worth checking !thelyricsgame@lemmy.ca if you like that kind of puns/images/challenges

10 years? , on average, I change game yearly

Sometimes, especially in fun one-shot I prepare pretty wild pre-gen, and always think I hope a therapist won’t read these characters :)

I’ve always been joking about playing an “orc poet” in Shadowrun as a way to do something totally sub optimal :) TIL that you can also play orc in D&D. And cute orcs can definitely change the world building

This is making planning ever more complicated, I try to have 4 or 5 player, so the game can run with 1 or even two player not showing. Sure if someone just don’t show on a regular basis, I’ll re open her place to a new player. But people are abroad for work, have to deal with their kids, or have a peak of work, they let us know, and we find an in game reason for their character so not be available and the game runs fine.

Even when the GM miss, we all have ready to play one shots lying on our computers, so not that of a big deal

Player cancelling aren’t that of a big deal comparing to GM cancelling. In the first case you keep playing while shit talking about Bob, in the other, you have to change your plan for the evening

Which is technically the whole point of an ambush.

However, for the players it means that when not expecting a combat, (tavern, camp) they don’t have to carry 15kg of metal, without blocking the other players every time someone needs armoured fighters

Iam right back from a larp. But players from a mercenaries company wearing full plates are looking for squire officially so people can discover that playstyle without buying a full plate armour. Unofficially, because with help, they can put their armour in less than 5 minutes instead of 30. So having squires would mean they can remove their armour without needing a lot of time to put it back

With experience, one learn that players will need 5 minutes to destroy 5hours of game prep. So indeed, sticky notes and bullet points do wonder.

Also, somehow, modern games do wonder at reducing the amount of game prep
