Rolling with Emphasis by RAINING_DAYS

[legacyhypesquad]

To quote the creator:

"The Build Stardew Legacy Challenge is a combination of the Sims 4 Legacy Challenge and the Build Newcrest Legacy Challenge, inspired by elements from the game Stardew Valley." @ashubii made a legacy challenge that is both gameplay and world building. Also, strong cottage core vibes.

Some Self-Inflicted Ingame Rules

------------------------------------------

If a party member are in a quarrel, one-sided and mutual, I cannot put them in the same room to calm them down unless one of them specifically requests to go into the other's room or if they are already roommates. Otherwise, all quarrels will have to be solved by other means. Otherwise, Quarrels will simply have to be suffered through and worked around.

If there's a good chance the party will win even if a member has low HP I will attack instead of healing as the Cleric. If a party member is low, however, and we are not close to winning I will heal them as the Cleric even if the Party Leader's / Cleric's HP is too low to survive another attack himself. If all other party members will atleast survive the next attack and the Party Leader's HP is low I will use that turn to self-heal as the Cleric.

If the Cleric Party Leader has a quarrel with another party member I will not heal that party member unless absolutely necessary. ( Ex. In Boss Battles I will absolutely heal a Party Member quarrel or not )

I cannot grind for EXP unless absolutely necessary to proceed. The only ways I can get my stats up are by naturally level up, buying gear and through grub buffs.

Until the Party Leader gains the horse whispering / horseplay skill he will be sleeping in the stables. Relationships will have to be built by outings, jolly jaunts, in-battle events or other positive relationship events. He will only be taken out if either he or the horse requests to be in the same room as another party member, however once the interaction ends he will be put back. Other party members are allowed to form a relationship with the horse.

Snurpy is to be attacked every time it shows up.

Even if I decide not to 100% a level upon first getting to it I will have to eventually go back and complete all routes and 100% it.

I cannot run from enemy encounters. I either win it or all party members fall. This doesn't need to apply for boss battles because you can't run from bosses anyway.

After every boss there will be a feast if possible.

All Inn Relationship events have to be initiated no matter how the other party members might feel about it. This is the case unless it might create strange events where characters happen to be closer than they're usually supposed to be in lore especially if their relationship in canon is negative. Quarrels do not count as they generally cannot be stopped especially with battle RNG. Otherwise the characters will have to tolerate eachother for now.

Must press Yes on all chests even if it could be a trap.

Routes taken will always be a zig-zag if there's more than one split-off.

Safe-Spot and effect-stopping spells will not be used unless absolutely necessary or Party Member AI decides to to it themselves. Status Inflictions caused by quarrels will not be cured unless there's another infliction needing curing or, like other inflictions, Party Member AI does it themselves. ( Like in cases of the Cleric getting the effect where they need to be quickly recovered or a majority of the party having a negative status infliction where we need to get the party back or lose the battle. )

The safe-spot will not be used to heal party members. The only time it will heal teammates is the party member already having loss health and needing to be in there to stop a status infliction.

Sprinkles will only be used in cases where the Cleric has fallen. In which case they will be revived and the other sprinkles can be used to give the party a boost.

Cannot intentionally cause a Cleric Death. Deaths must happen naturally be it because the Cleric was made to heal a teammate rather then themselves and got attacked or just taking a massive hit in general.

All Cleric Rules besides the Cleric-Revive Rule only imply if the Party Leader is the Cleric as I cannot control the actions of my Party Members.

If there's only 1 Left of a grub item I cannot eat the grub item until I get another. This is to help out once the progress gets wiped after the party kidnappings. Likewise, money will only be spent if deemed necessary for the area and will not be gambled away. Unless you count giving money to the Party Members to buy gear as gambling.

Horse Attacks cannot be skipped no matter the circumstances.

------------------------------------------

Other rules may be added later!

Rules can be suggested aswell, though nothing too hard like perma-death or we would be at this forever.

Hey there!

If you play TTRPGs and you like playing/designing character that use bullets or any other consumable resource, i made a thing.

This is a couple of rules that reimagines the way we keep track of our ammunitions in our games. it's still fairly simple in nature (use what you have available until it runs out) but i've put a little spin on it to make keeping track of ammunition more interesting.

let me know if you like it or have any criticism of it!

Survivor's Handbook (Preview) Ruleset Expansion by Saga of New World

[lolli-popples]

Bad Life Series Idea I though was funny:

Reverse Life. Greens are violent and can kill anyone. Yellows can only kill reds. Reds are peaceful.

The only way reds can kill people is if they are a boogeyman (which is now red exclusive) and if they kill someone, they get a life. If they don't nothing happens.

Additional Rules:

-You can only wear a helmet

-Only level 30 enchantments

-Everyone does Watchers lore, except Martyn, who is explicitly NOT allowed to do it.

If GW had a dollar for every miniatures agnostic rulebook I had read...

...they'd still be trying to figure out ways to charge people more money for less plastic and make you pay for another codex again.

A goblin gloomstalker ranger / peace cleric I made for an RP group. She's an experienced dungeon delver, and crafts little enchanted items by inviting tiny spirits to live in them. If you want an enchanted item made with care, you ask Auntie Daya - just remember that they might have a little more personality than usual...

Sorry if this is random but I saw this and thought of you. The BBC/doctor who website just posted an official gallifreyan translator which looks to be Sherman’s gallifreyan. I know you had opinions about them using Sherman’s gallifreyan on the doctors screwdriver because the bbc didn’t make it or credit the person who made it. Do you have thoughts about the translator?

*gestures vaguely toward my blog* haha yeah

this has, in fact, been driving me loudly insane the entire day! tl;dr i think it's basically plagiarism and it makes me really really mad. what follows is an extended rant, and i apologize in advance about that!

in case anyone else has not been keeping up with this, the Doctor Who team released an "official gallifreyan translator" today, the output of which bears a strong resemblance to Sherman's Circular Gallifreyan, the fanmade system created by Loren Sherman (he/they) in 2011 and developed over the years by them, Annie "Skribe of Sirkles", and the general gallifreyan fan community.

the DWlator does not follow the Sherman's Circular ruleset exactly, but it has clearly taken inspiration from Sherman's Circular, as it uses the same basic structure for creating words and sentences, and the letters use the same stem/decorator system. despite this, Loren is still not credited anywhere on the translator site, nor has the DW team mentioned them in any of their social media posts.

it's an unbelievably shitty, lazy, disingenuous thing for the DW team to do. they really couldn't come up with their own gallifreyan system? they had to stoop to stealing a fan's creation, without even reaching out for permission or acknowledgement? i'm absolutely certain the DW team is going to profit off of their DWlator system; Loren will not see a penny of that, even though it's THEIR system being used, their contribution to the community being exploited.

and if the DW team wanted to put out a translator, there are so many translators that already exist! the GTH does basically exactly what the DWlator does, right down to the way dots and lines are displayed - why not try to strike a deal with the creator of the GTH? why not work with the community, instead of exploiting our work and then ignoring us?

Loren and Skribe of Sirkles are unwilling to seek legal recourse about this: Loren because their goal has never been to have sole ownership of the system, and Skribe of Sirkles because being a gallifreyan artist is her full-time job and she doesn't want to jeopardize her career. i understand their perspectives, and i'm certainly not a big enough player on the field to have a say that means much, but as someone who has been in fandom spaces for decades, i am TERRIFIED of the legal precedent being set here.

i know a lot of folks in the discord server are not quite as "doom and gloom" as i am. Skribe of Sirkles, for instance, is reaching out to the BBC to say "we're excited you're using the system, and we would love to work with you as an offering of goodwill." but i'm not ready to go that far. to me, this is just another, more egregious expansion of the BBC's long history of stealing fan content.

as a corollary, i'm also quite worried that the differences between Sherman's Circular and the DWlator system mean that a lot of fans who've gotten tattoos in Sherman's Circular are going to look at the DWlator output and say "wait a second. my tattoo doesn't look like this. what the hell? did i get ripped off?" loads of people on twitter are already going "but i got the fan system tattooed, and now it doesn't mean anything :("

in fact, the DWlator is not backwards compatible with any other "Gallifreyan" DW has ever put out in the past - including Ncuti's sonic screwdriver lmfao. so even by THEIR OWN RULESET, Ncuti's screwdriver is illegible. absolutely comical.
