@sao said in Consensus on Roster vs OC vs Mix:

I love rosters but I prefer to write my own characters.

And everyone else’s characters, apparently. Because I have a problem.

I LOOOVE the characters you create The depth and nuances - just beyond.

That said, I’ve pretty much been roster-only for many years. I hate making characters for myself and find it super interesting to take up a character/role to play on a game. It makes it easier for me to find direction and such.

I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING and wondered if maybe no one was really into DA anymore or something.

I actually started Greedfall II a couple of weeks ago just to dink around until Veilguard came out. I’m putting that on the back shelf because I’m not a fan of early access, turns out.

I didn’t finish Inquisition because it just started feeling soooo sloggy to me. I loved Dragon Age 2, but yeah. Inquisition was too big for me. ANYHOW

I’m digging it. I’m not that far in but man - it’s so pretty and I like the story thus far.

I am gonna leave a review too but honestly you are underpricing your work. These little guys are adorable and I woulda paid more.

Saaaame.

Random and all, but man. I miss crafting stuff. Crafting for like actual players. Ironically, maybe, I absolutely abhor crafting in video games.

I super enjoyed that.

Congrats!

1083 were hairpins

I have one folder with all the notepad files of crafts I did, starting with the great weapons in late May 2016 and ending with a sword for Jasper three days before the game ended:

(Edited because Jasper not Jasher, though there was an axe for the latter in 2019 apparently)

This is toeing into the territory of the… spreadsheets in our pretendy fun times discourse. Reasonable steps to remain organized and keep a sustainable pace? Yes. Turning it into something that might be done from a cubicle? Pass.

how dare

The Stand at Farhaven was everything and more than I could have hoped for. Reading channels cheering us all on and investing with us on this event. An amazing group of players who threw absolutely all in, and to whom I am super grateful not just for this, but for staying on this crazy northlands road during lots of ebbs and waves. Add in @Apos’s incredible storytelling while somehow GM’g all of us and whatever we were doing…man.

Magnificent

Tippy, the gremlin princess as my kids have come to call her, salty at me while at the vet. She bit a nurse. Otherwise, she has softened a lot since moving to FL and LOVES sitting in the window watching birds on the lake. But this face

/Kindre/.

Damn, there’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time. Insert Obi-Wan meme here.

K’nan, Veyath’s.

K’nan! All the Ks up in the way back machine

@helvetica

I actually just got two of those Feliway plug-ins to try to help but wasn’t sure about them - some of the reviews weren’t great. This makes me feel like it was a good purchase. Thank you!

@junipersky

Thank you!

I recently lost both of my parents, which required a drive from NJ to FL with their cats. I had three cats, but we lost Luke (15) in March 2022 and then Piggy (15) shortly after him last year. This left the baby, Lizzy (now 2), as lone cat since then. She and Luke never really jived, but she and Piggy mostly got along.

She is not happy about new cats, and we have them in separate parts of the house. I think Lizzy and Possum will be fine, but Tippy is about as happy about Lizzy as the other way around. Like, hissing & growling when they glance each other through the gate we have up (often covered with a blanket).

Any helpful advice? I really want to avoid having to rehome these two cats but also can’t keep them all separate forever.

Edited to make smaller sizes

Bless their little hearts.

@Hobbie said in Moments I feel like a real adult...:

I judge my neighbourhood’s lawns as I drive past.

Oh man. My grass is so brown because my irrigation is broken and my attempts to fix the heads just…did not adult well. This is my fear realized.

@Pavel Potato does for sure - that’s what I use now - but it’s a pop-up window rather than live. It works! Just not as convenient.

@Solstice said in MU Client Suggestions?:

@Tori

Yes. Spellchecks as you type.

That’s one of the things I’ve sorely missed from the SimpleMU days.

Thank you @icanbeyourmuse and @Pavel! I downloaded it but never did anything with it, but maybe it’s time.
