Went thru the book, character creation, and talked about the system last weekend and are looking to start this Saturday. I can reach out in a couple weeks to see if you are still interested if you'd like
Hello people, you may know me from my multiple posts for my weekly sunday cyberpunk game I've been running for hexbear users for a year now. Me and a few other awesome trans-femme hexbear users have come together to start up a game of Masks, a Powered by the Apocalypse game that centers on teenage superheroes.
Inspired by Teen Titans or Young Justice, Masks explores how superpowers impact a teen's life, and their relationships. A very rules-lite system that empowers the players to create a story all of their own, we look to play once a week at or around 2:00 PM CST / 8:00 PM CET. At the moment we are playing on Saturdays but are open to some other days of the week (Not Monday/Wednesday/Sunday)
You do not need to have any previous TTRPG experience or knowledge of comic books, or even LGBT, just interest in role-playing and collaborative story-telling with comrades.
We use a private discord server for voice and roll20 for the virtual tabletop
Please comment or send a direct message for any information/interest.
Thanks!
While there are no more spaces in the game please reach out if you are interested if something happens I'll be pleased to reach out.
Everquest 1 and BDO
Nostalgia for EQ1 is so strong but unless you got friends trying to get into an old-style mmorpg now is painful
BDO because I actually love the combat style and gameplay but the k-mmorpg inspired upgrade system is just maddening also fuck microtransactions
Hello and thanks for the interest, I've been running a weekly cyberpunk roleplaying game for hexbear users for over a year now, and I'm looking for new people to join a heist/anti-corporate aktion/criminal syndicate intrigue campaign.
The current system is Shadowrun 5e and I can provide all the information to play the game on Roll20 the web-based tabletop simulator we use to play and utilize discord for voice. We'll build a character together to join the existing group of:
Mafia Orcish Gun-guy Ex-corporate Human Medical Mage Ex-corporate Elven Infiltration Mage Shadowy Human Drone Operator
We are looking for one to two people to join us on Sundays for three hours starting at 8:00PM CET / 2:00PM EST
Please leave a comment or send a DM if interested or have any questions
For a "boss" level fight DnD is slower for low-tier enemies shadowrun can be slower. However Shadowun combat is much more lethal, a well-placed shot from a security guard can put a weaker player character into near death place.
No worries, and I don't stream, but I enjoyed this actual play
The basic mechanic is that you use an attribute and a skill to build a dice pool which can be modified by various forms of technology and magic. You then roll the pool and count the numbers of (5s and 6s) rolled in order to beat a threshold or get more 5s and 6s than the other character's dice pool.
It is often described as a heist game (but you can do "dungeon" crawls, political intrigue, or investigation type games pretty well) in that the three gameplay loops are beginning and ending of the job (initial meet and final meet), the legwork phase where you gather information about the job target/location and plan out how to execute the job, and then executing the job itself. It is very high crunch meaning there are tables the gamemaster references for how far a grenade can be thrown and how it bounces, how gunfights, car chases, computer hacking, spirit summoning etc. is both rolled and handled. This is often compared to a more rules light system like Blades in the Dark.

> We started off playing Cyberpunk Red and are just now playing Shadowrun 5E, a delightful mix of cybernetic technology, magic, and near-future corporate wrecking mischief! > > We play on sundays from 20:00 to 23:00 CET or 14:00 to 17:00 EST the majority of the players are from hexbear with the exception of a single person. We are skipping November 26 so the next date of play will be December 3rd. > > I can provide all the books and resources for developing the character, we play on Roll20 using maps, tends to be a pretty even mix between roleplay and combat. Even spread between goofy/fun play and more serious moral explorations in the context of a cyberpunk world. We have a couple femme of center and a couple masculine of center folks in the game. We use lines/veils and try to include some time before and after the game to socialize out of character. > > I am an experienced GM in many genres of ttrpgs but would say I specialize in cyberpunk/modern settings, and welcome anyone to join no matter their experience with TTRPGs (a couple players are very new to TTRPGS and others are quite experienced) or Shadowrun. I will ask that if you are very knowledgable about the Shadowrun world / timeline of events / big plot points to do your best to not meta-game or share that knowledge out of character. > > We use discord for voice, and while we do have a home-server we have been using a group message/call for playing. > > Any questions or interest please comment here or DM me. > > Thanks!
Land your dream tech job at a remote company and work from anywhere in the world.
A few months back someone asked around looking for a remote work job database, I don't think this was it but could help someone so here it is.

Authoritarian red fash main mods made me move it here:
"Somehow people on f/196 can see this ultra creepy lib saying all this disturbing shit on video and then swear up and down "it's being taken out of context", "he explained it was just a joke", "no, actually watch the videos, he's not saying any of that". Guess why they feel the need to gaslight everyone and pretend we're not looking at what's right in front of us? Rhythms with Fido."
"for some reason the left, both tankies and anarchists are obsessed with shitting on him. I think its because he criticizes the left and advocates compromise. Something a large part of the left considers the worst sin of all, even when for example the very ideology of anarchism is built up on making decisions that satisfy all."
"Because i actually watched the video the clips come from and don't trust the word of a fucking tankie (which isn't very anarchist of you people btw) if you actually want to know the context this entire tweeter thread was debunked by vaush"
"i'm not defending Vaush. i'm attacking leftist discourse. This thread was not created because some autist admitted to jerking to hentai. It was made because leftist love infighting. Even when in the real world when pushing for change leftists are often forced to work together."

Sustainable buildings from 'shrooms: Scientists can grow a complex structure from a single, flexible, knitted form containing mycelium, the underground roots of fungi.
Fungi have crossed the CleanTechnica radar as a potential biofuel resource, a packaging and insulation material, and a plant-based alternative to animal-derived leather. The idea of making sustainable concrete-type blocks from fungi has also been percolating for several years.
In January, for example, NASA published a proposal from the University of Nebraska that describes how sustainable buildings could be grown on Mars by, combining the masonry skills of fungi and cyanobacteria.
“This research proposes that, rather than shipping prefabricated outfitting elements to Mars, habitat outfitting can be realized by insitu construction using cyanobacteria and fungi as building agents,” explains Congrui Grace Jin, an assistant professor at the school’s College of Engineering, with in situ meaning that the blocks would be fabricated at the construction site.
The self-repairing bio-material would incorporate native soil, aka regolith, from the planet’s surface to grow homemade building blocks.
“Synthetic biology toolkits will be employed to create a synthetic lichen system, composed of diazotrophic cyanobacteria and filamentous fungi, to produce abundant biominerals (calcium carbonate) and biopolymers, which will glue Martian regolith into consolidated building blocks,” Jin added.
