One of the first things I did when #OVER/UNDER ended was change my Discord name from: "Thoss (they/them) [🚨 EDC]" to "DB as Thoss". When everyone was talking OOC, I didn't want folks to call me by my character's name! The movie/actor wording felt right for O/U. It was just as grand as a production!

I love a quote from Johana Koljonen's "An Introduction to Bespoke Larp Design": "The power of embodied role-playing is so strong, and the ability of players
to fix design problems on the fly so enormous, that even those early larpers could
glimpse what was possible, and kept at it."

I am both thanking and cursing @ehronlime.bsky.social for mentioning #OVER/UNDER in the Playtest Zero Discord
An equally as potent curse and gratitude to @cherrydrop.bsky.social for tempting me with the thought that I can just lurk
They're the whole reason I dipped my toe in--

I don't enjoy execs using video game terms. I hear about "leveling up" and "next level"...it makes me think they're plotting out game routes, but no they're just monetizing breathing

One of my prouder GM moments was a game of Kosmosaurs for a young family, parents and kids, and stone faced revealing that the recovered chrome artifact of the Saucerites was a dishwasher. I love me a bit

Playtest Zero is cool ok
Shout out to @ehronlime.bsky.social who's organized a little con fully on spreadsheets and discord. I ran a game of In This World and then chatted games for two hours afterwards and it was great.

Thanks for having me Alex! This was a great talk that kind of crystalized where I see myself in the hobby right now, which is to say, just trying to showcase games in a weird, unique way
I got to talk with @aavoigt.bsky.social! Check out his video essays if you haven't already
