Aw Fuck, NaNoWriMo Ends Tonight

So, you were gonna write a novel, but now it’s (lemme check) 4:36pm on November 30th and you haven’t even started. Well, you know what they say; the best time to plant a tree is thirty years ago, the second best time is while frantically downing caffeine at the last minute. Let’s go.

Get a sheet of paper, a pen, and a d10, then start rolling that die. Add up each value you roll, that’s your wordcount. Roll faster to write faster. Good, good, you’re getting words down. Getting into the flow of it! Check the time and–oh god, oh god, you’ve barely done anything, you won’t come close at this rate.

Quick, grab more dice. Roll them all! Big heaping handfuls, fast! Faster! Can’t you write any faster? Tick tock tick tock. Just make it up. “Roll” dice by just tapping them on the table, that counts. Do some creative addition. There’s different kinds of math, I’m sure this makes sense in one of them. Fuck the paper, use a calculator! Just a calculator! Keep hitting those buttons! Write write write and

oh

hey

you’re done. Cool.

…Why’d you wanna do this again?

200 Word RPGs 2024

Each November, some people try to write a novel. Others would prefer to do as little writing as possible. For those who wish to challenge their ability to not write, we offer this alternative: producing a complete, playable roleplaying game in two hundred words or fewer.

This is the submission thread for the 2024 event, running from November 1st, 2024 through November 30th, 2024. Submission guidelines can be found in this blog's pinned post, here.

letting bellara keep the archive because i believe in the preservation of history and keeping emmrich mortal because i think being afraid of death is pussy behavior. i love messing with academics

ethubs to me is like. tfw you kill and die for someone so many times that you can't even grow tired of it. it's mundane, sure, but in the way that loving someone is mundane. blood becomes like waking up to them every morning- an expected but beautiful nonetheless way of things being. it doesnt matter if they're killing each other or their enemies or pretending to do one and actually doing the other to them it is an act of devotion. and not the dramatic kind. tfw you die and kill for someone so often that instead of loosing meaning it gains sentiment. this is not a tragedy anymore!!! they are ripping it apart with their hands and laughing!!! is there anymore power to an actor than that? than turning the story to a comedy? they're sooo sitcom core. of course they love violence- there's no reason to be afraid of dying when it's not the end. they'll have another go at it, and another and another and another and another. the grief is real, sure, as real as the bloodlust- it's just not the thing that lasts

Kori really increased the first line and the MGM lines minutes in the third

yes- the mgm line was moved to first on the pp after the second. what i want is toi by period for all the past games [so i can do average per period]

[for those not in the know one shift is usually 45 seconds to 1:30]

the green highlights per period are toi is above the average for the period

we did my family Thanksgiving early today (gotta coordinate 5 adult mostly-married-half-with-kids siblings' schedules) and I am so pleased to announce that I beat ass on the badminton court for like 2 hours

wait actually this one post makes a good point i wish there was actually tags to separate between hsr and hi3 bronseele and on that note actually any of the overlapping characters alskdjfha but the search engine sucks ass on this website so you'll always have overlap either way i think :I

its so bizarre and jarring to see trans women hating trans men. we're like the two monsters they threw into the roman coliseum and instead of questioning why any of this exists some of yall are like "yay finally i can fight you!" like wtf do you mean >_>
