@tusooa @Gargron I'm curious. How should they verify, then?

Another #MastodonTip for people of the #TwitterMigration (other than using camel case for hashtags) is that Mastodon instances are not run by corporations with thousands of employees. Usually it is just a handful of volunteers and an instance owner or two.A huge influx of users, like this, all at once is a lot to handle. Stuff may break or slow down for a bit.It'll be okay. Things will level out & it will all work again. The same thing happened in back in April.Be calm. Carry on.

The downfall of #Tumblr is legendary; sold TO Yahoo for $1.1 Billion... sold BY Yahoo for $3 Million.It sounds like some people have learned that lesson and are planning on springing bear trap that is the #Twitter acquisition.https://mashable.com/article/elon-musk-twitter-tumblr

@VeryBadLlama my wife and I started a community board game night over a decade ago in our late 40s. I have made some of the closest friends of my life from that group. It's been worth the effort.

My used copy of the Death in Space role playing game came in the mail today. It has a few small dings, but otherwise it looks great.I have only been able to give it a cursory read so far, but I like what I see. I can see the influences of Knave which I appreciate as that is the system I am using for my lightweight "DnD" games right now.I'm looking forward to getting it to the table. I've these lightweight systems to be perfect for introducing RPGs to new people.#DeathInSpace #Knave #ttrpg

I started reading through the Death in Space RPG last night and I really like it. With a few short paragraphs and some well chosen gear and mechanics, it does a good of setting the tone for what it is going for.One thing that I like from the Mothership rpg is the d100 table of patches you can give characters.Inspired, I have started my own d100 table for patches for Death in Space. It's a lot of fun.#DeathInSpace #Mothership #ttrpg #rpg

Here are a couple of the patches for my Mothership inspired Death in Space patches:* "Spaghettification's on the menu"* (5% oxygen level left indicator) * “Did you close the airlock?” * What doesn’t kill you mutates and tries again” * (CRT monitor displaying static) “Listen to the Void”* (Hub spaceship in a bottle) * “Save the Space Whales!” * (Pipe organ) “donor” * “I stared into the Void and it stared back” * “Solid Welds Save Lives!” #DeathInSpace #Mothership #ttrpg #rpg

@lextenebris yikes. That is a lot of money.If you want the always hits mechanic, you can also try out Cairn (the full pdfs are free from its website and the POD physical books from Lulu are very cheap).

@lextenebris I get it, I was just pointing out another cheap option that included a similar mechanic that MCDM has been touting.

@lextenebris oh yeah. I bought the coil bound and perfect bound soft covers of both Cairn 1e and 2e. Soft cover for carrying around and learning. Coil bound for using at the table.
