Ugh! What a Day!
Liam @ GamingOnLinux ๐ง๐ฎWith the price of hardware everywhere going up, we've had a long hard think about the future.
So, we're going to rebrand and refocus to enable us to continue to exist past the end of 2026.
Announcing our new name: GamingOnPenAndPaper
First up: can I play DOOM with a Pen and Paper?
Der Motzmichel auf Sharkey@gamingonlinux You can throw both ;-) ...
Samsai@gamingonlinux Presumably yes. There is also the Dark Souls of pen & paper games: https://runerpg.games/
nick ๐ฆ๐บ@gamingonlinux Yes. Pen and paper is Turing Complete.
I don't guarantee the framerate though.

GreenmanIf you mix "book-sketch" like this
And "You Are the Hero Books", i think it's possible.
Not so easy, but possible.
*You have reload, what's coming next :
- you fire, send a dice, between 1 and 3 keep the sketchbook 13695, for 4 and greater the Nยฐ62448
- you walk, go to sketchbook 12654*

Ray McCarthy@samsonite @gamingonlinux
We used to play RPGs and Wargames with a cloth laid over stuff to create terrain, coins or counters for characters or armies, physical dice, tape measures, paper rule books and paper and pencil.
Very cheap and lots of fun. Some people wrote their own rule books or replayed famous battles.
bovaz@gamingonlinux as someone who's seen the prices on ttrpgs skyrocket in the past few years because of supply chain bs (stuff between US and China affecting the EU), I gotta say you should start thinking about the new new name.
Dofain@gamingonlinux i was forced to draw ads for 15 minutes on Pen&Paper, do you have a good AdBlocker for it?
luca@gamingonlinux We will all send you postcards, supporting the initiative with additional stamps.
