Weird to only focus on that, but the complaint still holds. It's not really a common measurement for TTRPGs as far as I'm aware.
nWoD/CoD uses yards, L5R uses both feet & yards, and that's just off the top of my head. Your awareness is lacking, and that's not even getting into your weird-rear end decision to defend your post on something that objectively does not exist.

I had drawn a 60-foot long tavern bar.
I see nothing wrong with this

Have any of you tried tracking Corruption secretly, making the rolls yourself, and informing a PC if something happens? Or is it better to tell them when they earn Corruption and let them deal with it?
Seems like that kind of thing would defeat the purpose of the mechanic and also be extremely unfun.

I'm thinking about writing up a little reskin of SotDL along the lines of those older mixed live-action/animated movies, like Who Framed Roger Rabbit and Ralph Bakshi's Cool World. Everything to do with corruption/demons turns into cartoons, and corruption here means moving closer to becoming a cartoon character. Marks of darkness are just absolutely perfect for this, I think. Consider:

Your eyes pop out of their sockets when you are surprised
Your legs wobble when you are nervous
Music follows you around, changing according to your mood and intentions

I personally love the aesthetic of those films, but would anyone else be interested in seeing this take?
This is an amazing idea, I love it and want all of it so I can use it in my games.
