So with G+ ending, do you guys just want to pitch in to buy a spot of land and start a farming collective/gaming commune together?

    That sounds very much in keeping in spirt with this play group.

    I’m genuine sad—and concerned about all the collected data/pictures/memories here

    The problem I've seen with things like Discord or Slack, etc. is that it's a great chat platform but because they don't have posts, like G+ or Facebook, I kind of just ignore everything everyone says.

    The big thing is it needs to be something with a scheduling feature.

    the lack of a post/thread/chat distinction in Discord looks like it has very frustrating negative impacts on its utility

    Chris Kutalik i think you'll be able to download your own post and communities, but it's very frustrating that i'm gonna have to go and like Screencap for example the Gammahawk thread

    I keep seeing "MeWe" as an option...we've moved a small lifeboat over to Discord for a few folks, but yeah, it's straight-up chat/messaging.

  14. Billy LonginoOctober 8, 2018 at 1:28 PM

    MeWe looks optimal as it's like Facebook but without anyone I'm related to or work with!

  15. cole longOctober 8, 2018 at 1:31 PM

    the very word "MeWe" fills me with idiot fury

  16. Billy LonginoOctober 8, 2018 at 1:36 PM

    Should've gone with I-Us. I'm confused by the whole singular object/plural subject deal.

  17. Billy LonginoOctober 8, 2018 at 1:39 PM

    Though I still think it's better than Discord, in terms of functionality. Whatever people choose, it'll be a nice experience in bottom-up community emergence!

    mewe.com - MeWe: The best chat & group app with privacy you trust. See "How can MeWe be free and make money?" which makes no sense, but OK.

    Crap, when is this happening?

    10 months from now.

    So we have some time to figure out an alternative. Jeez, this sucks (though I guess we knew this was coming eventually).

  22. Gus LOctober 8, 2018 at 1:56 PM

    Maybe a non-public subreddit?

    Farm Commune is good - but can wee do that in New Zealand? I have a bad feeling about how the US will be treating collectives in the near-term.

    I'm sort of surprised by the fact that the commune idea above was the first thing I've read today that actually made me feel like I could breathe properly again. As long as we're moving though, it would probably be best if it wasn't in the United States. Just sayin'.

    Well, we can load up on guns and go challenge a cartel for some arable land in Mexico, I guess.

    Can the yard grow beets?

    It’s a quarter acre so we could get a decent garden going

  29. Billy LonginoOctober 9, 2018 at 12:35 PM

    All right, all right. So now all we need are matching jumpsuits and some cheap lumber so we can build shitty bunks for everyone .

It's been a while since the “formal” ask, but time to check in on the “how's it going” type feedback (which has been pretty valuable in sustaining the campaign over time). So how y'all feeling about the campaign?  Anything particular you want to see more of? Less of? Stay the course?  Suggestions? Wish lists?  Various half-crazed side campaign ideas keep popping into my head, but I am mostly staying the course for now.

What Ba Chim's spy tells you about Il Tasi'in

What Ba Chim's spy tells you about Il Tasi'in Il Tasi'in, a thick-walled town of 3000, is the seat of power for one of the the most isolated of the borderland satrapies of the Scarlet Sultanate. Located on the east coast just after the shoreline turns south, it is a bare 60 miles from the Xobi, the cold rocky southern desert in the Weird.  The town which is dominated by the two raised quartz-dome hills called the Teats of Manat was formerly called Manawat and was deeply associated with the worship of that chthonic goddess (who is said to have ruled over fate itself and “sapped the self-will and value of Men”). The ruling satrap is like other borderlands satraps both a highly-positioned courtier and necromancer, an important role in the maintenance of the undead-worked plantation system (more about Industrial Necromancy in a blog post).  Ul-Namihirra is generally considered to be a deeply incompetent in both his expected roles but survives politically by his ability to shift...

So we are playing the Feral Shore next week (I really want to commit to getting back going forward in this year with the eventual retirement of Revoca). Here is the recap and update y'all wanted (the linked piece being an updated version of my previous update, make sure to read the stuff here in this post).  Recap The Feral Shore is currently three months behind Revoca in the space/time continuum. Players can take the opportunity now to conduct a week of downtime activity before the session next week. (Some sites in the Weird bend time so I am not going to overworry integrating the two play groups.)  What Happened Last Session and During Downtime: 1. The party killed Milos the creepy hedge wizard of the Deermen in the wooded river basin to your west. Total treasure hauled out (and this was never posted) from furnishings and ancient coins totals 3,100 gold suns and a collection of three filigreed and magically-balanced spent-uranium throwing axes (+1 and an additional 30' of ran...
