I was playing d&d all day. Did not know anything was happening.
Lucky, we had to postpone a session 0 due to people having plans for the super bowl. Super boring game, and the whole event felt off. I fell asleep before it ended, but spent the whole time thinking about the fun we could have had.
Also that other commenter making assumptions about you and boycotting seemed just as odd. It reminds me more people came from reddit recently.
I ran two games, one is a weekly game of teens, the other is every other week of adults. I was surprised no one canceled from either game. Both were great sessions.
Nice, we're about to run a pirate campaign with like 9, 10 people. We'll be lucky to finish a round of combat in a session, but it'll be one to remember for sure.
Back in Maryland with my old gaming group a friend and I ran games with an average of 20 people, but there was seldom a time where all 20 were in the scene together. It was a lot of fun, some games lend themselves better for large stuff than others. No way would I do d&d at that scale, but white wolf works great.
I was in the same boat.
Spent all day cooking and listening to podcasts/music. Invited a friend over for dinner like usual and she said she couldn't come until it was late and well past dark, which was very unusual. Then she told me she was at a Superbowl party and that was how I found out what was going on.
Only way things could have been better is if I had D&D with the food.
Oh, I was like "why are you telling me this?" It's because you still think boycotting does something right? Right.
Or they know that force-feeding themselves needless media that will just make them miserable is not worth it. People that don't do things they won't like aren't "boycotting". They're just not doing it.
"why would you comment on social media?"
What the fuck is your problem dude
Yes running my normally scheduled d&d games is boycotting. I had no idea this weekend was football, I know it was sometime this month, but that is about it.
Ah, sorry then. I only saw the Kendrick clip afterwards. D&D is the best
Because d&d is a lot more interesting.
