I Heard Matt Mercer Did A Freudian Slip Where He Said "Critical Rolemaster". They Cut It From The VOD

I heard Matt Mercer did a Freudian slip where he said "Critical Rolemaster". They cut it from the VOD but many reliable livestream enjoyers have reported it. He knows what's coming and he's accepted it in his heart

I'm hearing from my inside sources at WotC that the Hasbro executives are really worried about the upcoming launch of the 2024 update of D&D: not only have the digital preorder bonuses soured a not inconsiderable portion of the fanbase on the update, word has reached the higher ups that 2024 is the year of Rolemaster. One executive was quoted as saying "It's Rolever."

Anti-AI Research Project - Planning Survey

Hi everyone! Back in May, I shared this post about a friend's university project aiming to create an anti-AI tool for use in audio work/voice acting.

Her project has been approved! Planning is now underway, so she's created a first-pass anonymous survey for interested participants to fill out, particularly those that deal directly with audio in any form.

These responses won't be used as part of the final data generated from the research, but is an initial check into the community that will be useful throughout the process. It should take about 5 minutes, and you can find the survey here, so please fill it out if you get a chance!

To stay updated with her work, you can join the research Discord server, or we've set up a mailing list for those that would just prefer to have updates emailed directly to them.

they call me the podcast recommender

Your world has a single deity.

The deity is omnipotent.

If you address the deity with the correct form of words, the deity will listen to what you have to say.

The deity will not respond or ask follow-up questions. They will only listen.

The deity often, but not always, grants miracles in response to appeals addressed to them in this way.

You find a private place and summon your resolve.

"In your benevolence, hear my plea and intervene. I need a miracle..."

Chaosium brings actual play to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival

In partnership with Scottish institutions, the Call of Cthulhu publisher will host two shows at the famous avant-garde showcase.

Theatre luvvies 🤝 RPG nerds

The Edinburgh Festival Fringe (to give it its proper title 🤓) is a place to get weird and experimental with performance, so if actual play takes off there ... here's hoping we could start seeing some experimentation with the format (get it on its feet? free the performers from behind the table? or stage it in the round with the players around a round table? put em on a lil revolve? refuse to accept static staging in live in-person actual play challenge 2024)

Why did I pick a Thursday release day? I thought about what day of the week I'm usually crying out for deliverance. Basically. I never could get the hang of Thursdays.
