tsob posted:I imagine there's some functional reason they've struck on Survivor as the game show go to, be it that they can assume more people are familiar with it than others, that the rules are simple to explain and not too convoluted to play through while improving around them in fun ways or what have you. survivor’s structure is: social encounter game encounter vote off repeat so its exceptionally well-suited to reskinning to d&d compared to other reality shows

NieR Occomata posted:I think Dimension 20 specifically dodges that problem only because they have the exact same cast of seven for their “main campaigns” and the almost always end up playing variants on a theme - Ally will play someone who is queer, often trans, and they will make a bunch of anachronistic references and have insane luck, Siobhan will play a caster (or caster variant) who has difficulty connecting with others in some way, Emily plays someone or something with spells and is usually the biggest wildcard of the group, Lou plays a cool fighter black dude, Zac plays someone who is dumb and strong and is usually easily misled, and Murph plays the honorable straight man who is usually a fighter type (and often works in direct support of Emily). It becomes a lot easier to parse once you realize that no matter the setting or the campaign everyone plays pretty much the same sort of character in all of them, and the times they don’t are usually specifically commentaries or inversions of the characters they “usually” play. matt besser hypothesized that every good improviser is either a ninja, robot or pirate: ninjas play along but put out insane subtle moves, robots rigidly stick to the “game” and ground the world, and pirates are wackadoo crazy types that constantly throw out weird moves. i would say emily and caldwell are both pirates, jake is a ninja, and murph is a robot

Calexio posted:I'm relistening to a bunch of D&D Courts. The first one has the court ruling in favour of returning from banishment not bringing you back to the space you were in on a moving vehicle (in this case a ship) but where you were at the time of banishment relative to the world, so in this case in the air over empty sea. Where do other folks stand on this? I don't know if there's any official advice in rulebooks etc but I can never decide if I agree with them or not. At what point does movement of the "space" relative to the world stop mattering? What about some sort of flying city or other huge area? Would a small mount like a horse count in the same way? i think in a later d&d court someone takes this to its logical conclusion that you should return from banishment in the void of space because of the planet’s movement around the sun

Not Operator posted:I thought i was used to Emily being weird, but i was simply not prepared in any way for her to be smell-testing energy drinks because she doesn't want to damage her temporary root canal filling. i think thats less weird than her behavior during the last energy drink taste test, even putting aside her alternative interpretations of tang and bang

Ainsley McTree posted:If you like naddpod, you will like dimension 20, you’ll pretty quickly see how naddpod was inspired by it. Brennan is a hell of a DM, too. No sleight intended against Murph, he’s a heavy weight too, but you can see where he gets it from its possible dimension 20 was inspired by naddpod considering naddpod premiered early february 2018 and fantasy high premiered september of that year. i also just remembered that brennan’s remote cabin game that emily and murph discuss occasionally in short rests predates both so thats probably the genesis. id bet naddpod started recording within a week of fantasy high’s recording sessions

Ainsley McTree posted:Yeah it definitely defied the curse of being unable to bottle the lightning of a successful first season, it just gets better and better the more they do it. I imagine making enough money off it to not need day jobs helps, but then you have to assume the mcelroys must’ve been at that point ages ago too sure, but the mcelroys are talentless hacks

Slow your roll guys, we have to make sure he's actually a good fit for the pod youre not going to believe this, but jake plays hardwon surefoot, hank uhh quack, and calder kilday. we already know hes a good fit, if anything its strange that he hasnt been on more of the 8BBC mixed bags
