    An analog hobbyist waking up in a digital world

    In the 80s I did get to see one day of a West Indies vs England Test match at the Oval. It was amazing. The crowd on both sides was loud, engaged and friendly [and ever so slightly drunk by the end]. I just don’t have the time to watch Test Matches now [and they are usually behind a paywall]...

    How often would your main characters fail a perception check? (DND)

    The smartest person I was every lucky enough to call a friend was also the friend most likely to walk in to closed doors. And they did that twice within my sight.

    Question about 'growing' my sense of humor.

    Question about 'growing' my sense of humor.

    I think being silly is very different from being funny. I'd look to comedians that you find funny and work out what they do and if you can add that to what you want to do.

    Any advice or suggestions

    Hail and well-met Daginfury13 Good to have you here For my part I'd suggest starting off gently, maybe in some of the non-writing subforums When you get a feel of the place and what to enter a conversation, give it a go [Even if you don't know it] I am sure you have experiences and knowledge...

    To map, or not to map?

    I am old-school and I think visually so I have dozen and dozens of pencil and paper maps for what I write. Using them I find it far better/easier to tweak. If I use soft pencils I can just use an eraser to wipe out a town, redirect a river or move a forest. For me A3 is about the right size and...
