That feeling when your @TicketmasterUK / @LiveNationUK birthday tickets for @gunsnroses and @rivalsons states 19:00 show start time, so you arrive an hour early, buy merch and a drink & then find out that the support act went on at 17:30!!! Ironically, check out the tour name…

⁦@TheNathanJames⁩ is, yet again, stealing the entire show at ⁦@twotwofficial⁩ in Nottingham. Stop showing everyone else up, brother (btw don’t, you’re again the highlight!) #ULLA! #Waroftheworlds #theeveofthewar ⁦@TheEveofTheWar1⁩

There were far too many telecasters on stage for my liking (not quite sure why I don’t love them, probably purely that I think they’re ugly) but @Jameshbruner and his fabulous band were musical wizardry at @Rock_City_Notts last night alongside @TheStruts!

Inspired by a story in Wired. Come up with a six-word scenario for an #rpg #ttrpg #roleplaying game. Include game where relevant, bonus points if not #dnd or #5e ;) For example: Tales from the Loop: “adults convinced they’re kids; radio station.”

The book describes the horrors of a dystopian world throughout. The system, its supporting language & tone are all part of the fictional narrative. It misses a content warning, true, but the lack of some peoples’ consideration of the entire book as dystopian worldbuilding is…

Just saw @sbtourUK by CRH. It was good. Cast 👍🏻, but Aussie accents were 👎🏻. Didn’t love the original songs. Production wise, sound balance was off & some dialogue unintelligible because of music. Definitely worth seeing BUT honestly preferred @DrewMcOnie’s version @strictlystage

That all said, the dancing/choreography/stagecraft was brilliant. LOVED Kevin Clifton’s “Scott”, Jose’s “Rico”, James McHugh was outstanding as “Doug” and Faye Brookes did a superb job of Fran “learning how to dance”. It was a lot of fun. #NoNewSteps

Still waiting for our @DownloadFest t-shirts which @TicketmasterCS @TMFanSupport @Ticketmaster claimed even yesterday will be posted “before the event” which, for us, was yesterday…. Nobody wants to take ownership. 😿😾👎🏻

Amazing time last night playing #TalesfromtheLoop with friends here in sunny Nottingham. They are on their way to finding The Recycled Boy and several of them have not played anything other than 5e before. Great group! Pizza and drinks were had. Looking forward to session 2!

Have just had my casual gamer heart broken by the news from @playdreadnought a few weeks back that #dreadnought is sunsetting in March. Anyone have any comparable ship v ship arena games on #PS5 / #PS4? Maybe #GunsofIcarusAlliance?

Let’s not talk about “which is best” but, name three lore-rich campaign-heavy non-OGL games (not systems) that you absolutely love. One of the biggest losses our friends may feel from leaving 5e is that huge and deep level 0-20 campaign. #ThreeOtherGreatRPGs
