A good morning when you stand there with a coffee in your hand deep-frying aubergines for today's @chaosium s horror on the orient express installment #callOfCthulhu . I love cooking from countries the investigators are at and this is one of the many Italy installments

Just spotted @aptshadow.bsky.social 's service model in a talk about ai during the #jspring conference and it made me very happy. The talk was brilliant from Felinne Hermans about feminism, AI, programming languages. The book really fit the talk 😜

Xtroce @xtroce.bsky.social · 28/02/2026

That was a lot of fun. If you want see a fun short adventure look no further 😊

Xtroce @xtroce.bsky.social · 07/01/2026

Still need to go back to this one. @bastetthecat.bsky.social also always gets FP sickness every time, so we cut gaming together mostly to 2d games.

US President Donald Trump was just awarded the newly created “FIFA Peace Prize.” But his administration’s appalling human rights record certainly does not display “exceptional actions for peace and unity.” Learn more: bit.ly/4qbQiu7

Horror is on the menu tonight, with guest GM Scott Dorward taking us through Dead of Night by Andrew Kenrick - who is also a guest player! Tasha from idearoll joins us too, for a stellar cast of hapless actors on the world stage... or are we? youtu.be/reFaCcbVtAs

HUGE news for TTRPG players - researchers have developed a technique to make anything into fair dice. What's more, you can make exotic combinations like a single die that rolls the equivalent of 2d6. I would love a honking great 8d6 for D&D fireball damage... www.newscientist.com/article/2482...

You can make fair dice from any shape you like

Want to roll an armadillo when you play Dungeons & Dragons, instead of standard dice? Now you can, thanks to a technique for mapping the probabilities produced by any shape

An interesting thought. I only went so far that it would create room for a job named tv-barber... But yes, probably it would

Xtroce @xtroce.bsky.social · 02/06/2025

That sounds amazing. While I was telling this to my partner I had the idea that there was also a refrigerator that was fleshy on the inside and had arms and a toilet seat with a large tongue but this has been done i guess. The typical outhouse mimic

I dreamt tonight that there was a television set that had short translucent hairs instead of a screen and you had to cut the hair once in a while. I should make a scenario around this...

Should I unfollow you now so you can have that moment Twice? 😜

Xtroce @xtroce.bsky.social · 31/05/2025

I am happy to have played it even though it meant not being able to sign up for the same game run by lovely mr spike at chaosium-con.

Xtroce @xtroce.bsky.social · 31/05/2025

This was my first experience with 11-13 which was highly enjoyable even though we had no clue how to play. I still have the character sheet for my first character and I can confirm that I was a filthy power builder....

Going to watch some pride and prejudice *(sort of) in Leeds as a surprise evening entertainment. The theatre is stunning and im looking forward to it

Xtroce @xtroce.bsky.social · 30/05/2025

Not so much the characters but the games I'm running. Best one is still the one for dogside dogs.

Yeah, I have to throw the Kickstarter app from my phone again. It's a massive money sink. Also somehow someone seems to know when i am on vacation and plot to deliver packages specifically when i am not home for an extended period.

Xtroce @xtroce.bsky.social · 02/05/2025

If you want to replace old, crunchy systems with it try some shadowrun in questworlds 😛. (To be fair i still have to check out the new rules. My knowledge is still V2, maybe they cut down the crunch)

Xtroce @xtroce.bsky.social · 28/04/2025

Hey, I gm multiple campaigns for my home group and try to always get new people to experience different games. Mostly call of cthulhu but also other stuff. I am in the phase of publishing my first scenario and you might find me running games in conventions.

Finally Home after a long drive from @the-kraken.bsky.social. two boardgame expansions arrived while we were gone... Let's see if I have energy left....

Nice, I did not check for ergonomic ones from keychron . Might be a good one to get, love their keyboards otherwise

I learned that it is not appreciated to smash the princess together with the kidnapper off the horse with a Warhammer. Oopsie....

It was an awesome time again. Who would not want to join a convention in an old German castle with the most lovely people around. I miss it already and we only left 4 hours ago. Luckily there will be summer kraken soon!

Xtroce @xtroce.bsky.social · 21/04/2025

Quick, we should all play 'monster of the week' then 🤩

While prepping for my secret #rootrpg session at @the-kraken.bsky.social I had to think back at the session from @hwrpodcast.bsky.social where @aptshadow.bsky.social GMs an absolutely fabulous cast and @sdorward.bsky.social plays the best arsonist of all times. #salamander ! We need more of that!

If you read the base principles of scrum it is used for all kinds of projects, not just software development (which it is mostly associated with). Awesome if it works and helps you structure your projects! And cudos for cleaning up your task list. I know how hard that can be 👍

Xtroce @xtroce.bsky.social · 09/04/2025

I got an excellent haul of games I signed up for, for the next two conventions. @the-kraken.bsky.social and @chaosium.bsky.social con UK. Looking forward to both and hopefully seeing a lot of lovely people there.

On another note with starting @chaosium.bsky.social Horror on the Orient express, I definitely make little chapters for each session as @burnafterrunning.bsky.social suggested in the pacing episode of the #whatwouldthesmartpartydo podcast
