Their continued insistence that twen is pronounced twun is infuriating.

I saw this from the Other Justin just after listening to the recent episode with the KFC Gravings munch squad https://twitter.com/j_mcelroy/status/1609795204198076416?s=46&t=0wLad0_IWvlfN65N-ccgag

This seems a strictly "you love 'em or you hate 'em" tradition Personally fall into the latter and hate having to hear about it but I skip the episode and it always tapers off a few weeks into the year lol

Ariong posted:Twentygrifteen: The Con is On was my favorite. One way you can tell it was the best is that they constantly referenced it while answering questions throughout the year, which had never happened previously and has not happened since (except for Travis’s ongoing “Big Dog Woof Woof” intro in 2021)

Just started actually listening to the episode and wow it is really funny that the only one they couldn’t remember was last year’s. (At time of recording)

Nice to see Justin stepping into the ring on Steeplechase this week. Excited to see what Stimpson has to offer.

General Dog posted:How’s TAZ these days? It's quite good. Justin's perpetual refusal to allow Travis's bullshit for the most part is really keeping it above board. Not to say Travis is completely neutralized, but it's definitely more tolerable. Some very good NPCs too.

The "...and that's what he will say, depending on how you roll" bit that I'm pretty sure started as an accident is great.

Add another one to the pile of "TAZ is finally back". I knew I would love a Justin-run game and I've been waiting for it ever since Balance. So far it's seriously living up to my expectations. Maybe I'm projecting based on what I know about Justin's interests and influences, but I can't help but imagine this campaign as a 90's era point and click game. It's goofy as hell but also compelling

Poppy the Old Pervert is a great character and I enjoy Montrose and his intense dislike of him

Justin appears to be the only one of the boys who understands "I don't care how high you roll, you aren't bending my characters around your finger" and it's been a great neutralizer for Travis' horseshit. He's also been fantastic at providing mild DM warnings when they're about to do something (mechanically) stupid, so while he's happy to pile on the sass it never seems malicious when he applies The Consequences of Their Actions. Overall very P&C Adventure and I am here for it.

I slid off Steeplechase a few episodes back, have they actually embraced being criminals yet? The first couple heists had Beef as a wet blanket fighter who never fought, Montrose too indecisive to do anything and Clint was also there I guess. Justin has great table management instincts but it felt like he was herding three people through a game they didn't want to be playing.

I couldn’t stop laughing about Emmerich being totally torn up and traumatized about the hardlight construct of Short Doug he destroyed while being totally unphased about the real person he actually killed. It’s amazing that Emmerich is somehow the weirdest character in a party that also has a guy that pretends to be part of a family of animatronics to relax.Alaois posted:why would you pick a Cutter if you didn't want to be throwing people through windows and threatening to tear buildings down to their foundation Is Beef the cutter? If so, it seems like neither Justin nor Travis thought through the ramifications if having Travis’ character be a person of some renown, and now Travis feels kinda stuck not being able to do bad stuff because he can’t just take on a different identity like the others can. Honestly I would put the problem more at Justin’s feet than Travis’s. He should make it much less common for people to recognize Beef. Ariong fucked around with this message at 02:09 on Jan 7, 2023 |

I don't fully understand how Beef can even be famous when they've established that travelling between the parks is basically illegal. Absolutely no one in Gutter City should know who he is because Beef Punchley is a character (maybe???) from the nostalgia zone? Unless it's more like Dave Bautista retiring to go play Gaston in Disneyland? I've decided it doesn't really matter.

Unless it's more like Dave Bautista retiring to go play Gaston in Disneyland? Beef used to be a celebrity in the real world outside Steeplechase. Eventually his star fell to the point that he resorted to becoming, essentially, a sideshow attraction in the Steeplechase layer dedicated to things from the past. His official job is to hawk an arcade machine featuring him from back when he had an actual career. It’s so depressing, and really funny.
