Re: Out Of Character

In 6 days, I mostly get my life back.

The toxic, narcissistic ex girlfriend I've been trying to break up with and get to move out of my condo for about a year now (pre-pandemic) is moving out by the end of this month.

It was easier to divorce my wife after 12 years together. :x

You don't have any idea how much weight is going to be off my shoulders next Monday.

Mostly...

She's still moving stuff out. But it will be completely over soon.

Re: Out Of Character

I'll be away from my computer for about a week and most likely unable to post during that time.

OOC: Uh oh. Apparently for decades I have been doing wandering monsters all wrong: I check once an hour, but by-the-book it's supposed to be once a turn?!? AD&D I think it was every 3 turns, but I can't find any edition of the rules where it's supposed to be every 6 turns, and the only thing I can come up with is, "that's how our gaming group played when we were kids."

For what it's worth, "White Box: Fantastic Medieval Adventure Game" has wandering monster checks every hour as well.

Re: Out Of Character

Thanks for researching that! I have played White Box before, so maybe that's where I got it from.

Re: Out Of Character

Note that WB:FMAG is based on (but not identical to) Swords & Wizardry: WhiteBox. I don't believe SW:WB specifies a frequency for wandering monster checks in dungeons at all.
