@FortiterGames #RPGaDay2023 Day 31: Favourite #RPG of all time.

This is hard to say, but probably #SavageWorlds. As I said earlier this month, I can't really think of anything about it that I hate.

I love #Hackmaster (the "new" edition is more than 10 years old, folks, and has been around longer than the old edition), but it's got its lumps. I grew up on #Rifts #PalladiumFantasy #Shadowrun and #2e, but I can't really go back to them.

I went to an alternative boarding school that was exactly what I needed at the time but wasn't very strong academically, and aside from decent history and Civics I missed a lot of foundational learning. On the other hand, I learned really good #criticalThinking skills and those have underpinned my #learning as an adult. As a #homeschool #parent of a #2E kid with specific and unusual #academic needs, I consider critical thinking to be the absolute #foundational knowledge that we cannot do without and everything else scaffolds on top of that.

@Abstruse Is it all right if I refer to them as "the #GenCon rogues?" #DnD #2E

wow, I'm trying out #pathfinder #2e

some of the abilities are very hard to interpret. the action economy is fun.

Wat is dat voor een bruinhemd nu in de #2e Kamer die fulmineert over 'Achmed en Mehmet die in hun eigen land moeten blijven.

I’m taking a class right now (getting my gifted endorsement) and the class is awful. Everything about it is awful, from the actual course construction in Canvas to the terrible photos of readings to the old white male reading list to the awful assignments. It’s so bad and I can’t decide if it’s this bad because I’m supposed to just put in minimal effort and jump this hoop or if they’re serious about this class and it is just this terrible and they don’t know or care. Why can’t I just accept this and jump the hoops and move on? Why do I get so angry at how bad this is? Everyone else seems fine with it and I’m rage-typing discussion posts about quantum physics and convergent / divergent thinking and the nature of reality. Is this an #ADHD thing or a #gifted #2e thing or am I just a bad misfit person?

There seem to be very few people here who are #autistic + have #Schizophrenia + #Aphantasia + probable #dyspraxia + possibly #gifted / #2e . The feeling of not belonging is very strong. I have serious doubts as to whether I'll ever truly fit in here.

Using a $30\,\mathrm{keV}$ focused He ion beam (He-FIB) with a wide range of irradiation doses $D=100$ to $1000\,\mathrm{ions/nm}$ we fabricated Josephson and resistive barriers within microbridges of epitaxially grown single crystalline YBCO thin films and investigated the change of their electric transport properties with time. One set of samples (#1A) was simply stored at room temperature under nitrogen atmosphere. A second set (#2D) was post-annealed at $90^\circ\,\mathrm{C}$ using high oxygen pressures and a third set (#2E) at low oxygen pressures. We found that for #1A the critical current density $j_c$ at $4.2\,\mathrm{K}$ changes as $j_c\propto\exp(-\sqrt{t/\tau})$ with time $t$, where the relaxation times $\tau$ increases exponentially with $D$, which can be described within a limited diffusion based model. In order to increase the diffusion rate we annealed the junctions from #2D at $90^\circ\,\mathrm{C}$ for $30\,\mathrm{min}$ in oxygen environment. Directly after annealing the critical current density $j_c$ increased, while the normal state resistance $R_n$ decreased. Repeated measurements showed that within a week the junctions relaxed to a quasi-stable state, in which the time scale for junction parameter variations increased to several weeks, making this a feasible option to achieve temporal stability of parameters of He-FIB Josephson junctions in YBCO.

So honored to be part of QuadPrepSchool's Breakthrouugh conference with bold #neurodivergent voices like
@EricMGarcia, Haley Moss, and ZharaAstra, ongoing for the next 3 days in NYC. https://quadprep.org/2e-conference #2e #neurodiversity

Looking at #ShadowdarkRPG, with the classic #OSR #TTPRG low HP and unforgiving Death mechanics, it's amazing to consider the fragility of these PCs vs the incredible time and energy people put into planning #DnD5e and #Pathfinder characters. I want to hear from players who've gone from "modern" to Old-School play about how the transition went. (I've been reading and collecting OSR stuff lately but have no play experience with it. I've theorycrafted #5e and #2e a silly amount.)

On Monday, Brandon Tessers, LCPC, and @adhdmarie continued the conversation on #intelligence, with a focus on the concepts of #giftedness and being #TwiceExceptional, or #2e. Catch up with the "This Is Not Therapy" Hour now on YouTube:

@Tesqovara Turns out you can get the White Plume Mountain Revised for 3.5 for $0.69 right now at drive through RPG which includes the 7 page "outside the mountain" supplement containing #3E stat blocks for Dragotha and Thingizzed the witch (who was statted up in #2E for _Return to WPM_)

I was very happy with the 3.5 update for WPM, a clean and accessible translation of the original, even though by the time my heroes got to it they were in #13thAge

In my TWACT campaign, my party secured use of lodging owned by the local Curate. But they didn't even search it. At all. The next session, a player who didn't make the prior session asked if they found anything and they thought "good idea, let's search!" And they find a locked chest! But when picking is unsuccessful they leave again and ignore it all session. Again.

#TIL what #2e means ☝️

@Cloudjumper nice meeting you Merlin, may I ask what #2e is?

Okay... #introduction

Hi! I'm Merlin, or Cloudjumper/Cloudjump3r online. I'm in the north of #germany ,previously in Toronto, #Canada. I love #music and #production and lots of #art in many different #media. I used to teach #gameaudio with a focus on #narrative & #immersion.

Obviously I like #games but my main background is in #gifted & #neurodivergent #psychology, and #evolutionary #astrology & #counselling. I'm also #2e myself.

I #stream regularly on #twitch giving free #music #feedback.
