2024-04-09 18:39:16 +0000 UTCThis has the kind of energy I want to bring into the real world. There's a 50/50 shot I win the lottery if I play, and I love that. XD
NursingWounds
2024-02-01 15:35:28 +0000 UTCWhen you think about it everything’s already a 50/50 chance because it either happens or it doesn’t so we should all just use coins.

2022-08-23 20:46:12 +0000 UTCI feel like the throwing dice rule just came up when a bunch of players were rolling and one time a player hit another die, and it was ruled that it was allowed. But I think its only intended in cases where multiple people are rolling, as opposed to some sort of advantage or luck point where you decide to start chucking extra dice.

2022-08-23 19:08:21 +0000 UTCI'm a 5e DM, but I really love 2e. It is great for multi-classing and it offers so much customization.

2022-08-12 04:48:54 +0000 UTCUhhhh we have Rhinegeist in IL???? This changes everything
Nick Powell
2022-08-11 03:13:05 +0000 UTCThere’s something about the camaraderie pertaining to D20 truck nuts in these comments that makes me love this community.

2022-08-09 19:07:34 +0000 UTCFrom the shout outs… Rhinegeist is awesome. So glad it’s in IL now.
John The Third
2022-08-09 13:32:04 +0000 UTCBold of yall to assume that I won't put D20 truck nuts on my Honda civic
Zoe Jones
2022-08-09 12:26:19 +0000 UTCIt is 1 die and multiple dice. 😁
Jesse De La Rosa
2022-08-09 03:55:10 +0000 UTCI don't know how to feel with Murph correctly guessing my age right with the truck nuts bit
Blue Ashe
2022-08-08 21:02:38 +0000 UTCAnything with one or more Halflings in it is a good plus up for an ep! Love having jasper in this
Dylan Irish
2022-08-08 18:54:33 +0000 UTCI want those truck nuts lol

SoupLightning
2022-08-07 04:15:17 +0000 UTCMan I completely underplayed Fleshy's role in the description. I gave him to the team Cleric because his heavy armor meant he kept failing stealth checks AND it made him question his own God as it was a "living" automaton, something he would view as heretical, and he was always fighting the juxtaposition of "devout follower" and "independent do gooder".

2022-08-07 04:14:18 +0000 UTCI've got a bright pink 94 F150 lwb 2wd. Understand completely.
Kevin Wixom
2022-08-07 04:11:13 +0000 UTCThere was such strong Billy Mayes OXYCLEAN energy from Murph that I think his next gig needs to be an infomercial. This was the try out. “ONE IS NAMED APPLEKIN AND OTHER ONE IS NAMED ORANGEKIN” 😂😂😂😂
Marge In Charge
2022-08-07 02:07:52 +0000 UTCMurph: "One.. ironic.. 19 year old." Me: "Actually I'm 22"
Tyler Foster
2022-08-06 17:18:38 +0000 UTCMy slammed drift truck would love scraping truck duts
Josh Stadtmiller
2022-08-06 13:02:38 +0000 UTCI need to learn to drive and get a truck now
Grass
2022-08-06 02:51:53 +0000 UTCFia had that tight Josh Allen spiral
Jorde
2022-08-06 02:39:10 +0000 UTCI would buy D20 truck nuts almost immediately to put on my Toyota Matrix.
Tim
2022-08-05 23:14:32 +0000 UTC100% would buy the D20 truck nuts for my DM 🤣
Lady Land Puma
2022-08-05 22:11:15 +0000 UTCGod help me I heard the call for fan art of a Bailiff Tortle with a big ass and handcuffs and I delivered.
Austin Johnson
2022-08-05 21:13:02 +0000 UTCI miss our owl entrepreneurs, but i do love the new tank. maybe there's a compromise here. there are owl bears and dragon turtles--why not owl tortles?
Ilana Galpert
2022-08-05 20:52:39 +0000 UTCYeah! Bocce ball rules 😂
Marissa Bickford
2022-08-05 20:19:59 +0000 UTCAbsolutely living for this format! More plz 🙏 Great inspo. And also now I’m thinking of lizards with nipple tassels - but entirely no nipples 🤷
Marissa Bickford
2022-08-05 20:18:46 +0000 UTCI love Emily's laughter of pure joy at the concept of yeeting dice at other dice.
Desiree K
2022-08-05 20:16:50 +0000 UTCRight?! We Cinci-nadpoles need to get on pitching a live show here. (Also, welcome to town!) Rhinegeist's rooftop is gorgeous and I think it's out of season but Night Whale is such a Fia beer.
Plelk
2022-08-05 20:02:14 +0000 UTCI like the B team idea, I was already planning on doing something like this in my campaign, inspired by a similar mechanic in Assassins Creed Brotherhood and Revelations
Neji
2022-08-05 19:36:26 +0000 UTCI actually DID use the challenge coin! It's normally on my bookshelf where I record. However, when you live with a toddler things are rarely where you last left them. ~Caldwell

2022-08-05 19:32:03 +0000 UTCI’m definitely the dice truck nuts kinda guy😂😂😂
Bryce Vernon
2022-08-05 19:27:37 +0000 UTCLol my first dnd character was a halfling bard and I drive a Ford f150 XL, 2 different Ford rangers, a Chevy S10, and a Dodge Dakota for my job. So I would buy at least one pair of truck d20 nuts!
Grace Bee
2022-08-05 18:33:03 +0000 UTCMy fave thing about Jasper is that he can be on either end of the Caldwell-Murph dichotomy. Like he absolutely has hardass no-nonsense DM-Murph energy but equally the Jasper/Caldwell combo is just *chefs kiss* 😂 I'd love to see a chaotic Jasper/Caldwell vs sibling energy Jake/Em one shot or something... Although Murph may need a complete nonsense detox afterward
atlasrising
2022-08-05 18:19:03 +0000 UTCi think you guys should run seasons of this and then at the end each have to run a one shot implementing all of the home brew rules you’ve collected. or an all out brawl like the 8 bit book club monster mash and you use them like skills against each other LOL
Emily Kelly
2022-08-05 18:04:05 +0000 UTC...what's wrong with metal dice?
Kyle Veach
2022-08-05 17:28:24 +0000 UTCdont yall SELL a challenge coin?? why does no one have a coin!? 🤣🤣
Dallon Taylor
2022-08-05 17:24:26 +0000 UTCI know that it’s readily evident if you’ve been within 10ft of Caldwell opening his mouth, but I love the self awareness of his insanity
Dan
2022-08-05 17:14:00 +0000 UTCAlright alright alright. I love owlbear cave and I love that it is back, revamped, full of tortle references. I also love having Jake put his business side to use throwing jargons around in context to homebrew ideas and eggs. Tortle tank and Dungeon court are the perfect "D&D shows abou d&d that are super fun and don't need to be actual play". Also Jasper works so well with the crew!
Nathann Morais
2022-08-05 17:07:44 +0000 UTCYou could try posting this question in the community feed—Caldwell responds to questions over there pretty regularly!

2022-08-05 16:38:52 +0000 UTCHearing them say “tordle” so much reminded me of this wordle joke I made a few months ago. https://tordlehost.github.io
Ben Delany
2022-08-05 15:59:34 +0000 UTCSo yea... might be stealing the truck nuts idea. I'm sure to give by word of mouth where the idea came from. ❤
Sand Panda
2022-08-05 15:44:00 +0000 UTCI don't know if you all actually read these comments but I sent you all some stuff in the PO box a while ago and I don't care that much about the shout out but I am bit worried you didn't get it?
J. Marshall Smith
2022-08-05 15:07:32 +0000 UTCI would find some way to put truck nut dice on my tiny corolla I need them
Mae B
2022-08-05 14:30:46 +0000 UTCCurrently saving for a truck and I would definitely buy some truck twenties

2022-08-05 12:54:25 +0000 UTCMore then one Emily and murf I'm 37 lol
Temedar
2022-08-05 12:14:01 +0000 UTCI DIED when Murph screamed his tangent
Megan Ortiguerra-Rojas
2022-08-05 11:54:01 +0000 UTCCaldwell's commitment to the bit even to the detriment of the pod... incredible
Chris Atkins
2022-08-05 11:15:39 +0000 UTCI would totally have truck twenties if I had a truck. But I have a van 🥲
Declan Konesky
2022-08-05 11:08:20 +0000 UTCId like to point out the two crew or choo choo crew put out a deathsave coin, in the merch club, not long ago. Similar to the coin of certainty.
Evilbob02
2022-08-05 10:42:42 +0000 UTCI personally love the group rolling tray idea, and will be suggesting it to my no chortle DM
Ben Jackson
2022-08-05 09:51:43 +0000 UTCI just discovered the fun of playing with a slime and thought a Creek Water slime might tickle Emily's fancy
Sy Delta Parkertron
2022-08-05 09:06:56 +0000 UTCAw man the slime was me! I asked them to put a message for you in the package but I guess they didn't. Glad you like it!

2022-08-05 09:06:07 +0000 UTC'The Pumpkin Chronicles' and 'The Pumpkin Guy' are basically Grib (Jacob Wysocki) in Zak Oyama's Rotating Heroes Podcast 😂
Robin Moran
2022-08-05 08:58:31 +0000 UTCyooooo shout out to rhinegeist! i moved here recently and they got me into beer. cool to know fellow naddpod lovers work there :)
Summer Rose (Grantaire)
2022-08-05 08:31:06 +0000 UTCI think about emily saying "your stupid, thunking metal dice" all the time from when murph tried to roll them on a starstruck odyssey
Aiyana
2022-08-05 06:36:31 +0000 UTCthe throwing your d20s at one another to change the roll and them talking about the utter chaos of rolling has beardsley energy/behavior written allllll over it
Aiyana
2022-08-05 06:32:58 +0000 UTCI don’t even own a truck and I would absolutely buy a set of d20 truck nuts
Garrett Morrow
2022-08-05 06:29:06 +0000 UTCI ran a Goliath Barbarian and fellow PC was a kobold rogue. We crafted a backpack for me to carry her around on my back like Master Blaster. She got sneak attack every attack every time
David Lipscomb
2022-08-05 05:55:51 +0000 UTCInitiative grouping is used in baldurs gate 3 the game! Works really smoothly to speed up combat.

2022-08-05 05:55:27 +0000 UTCThe metal really shows how stupid this will be, in a good but douchy way.

preston packer
2022-08-05 05:20:31 +0000 UTCSo glad to witness the return of turdiss. Edit: I listened to this right before bed last night and my dreams were haunted by Emily chuck checking D20s in the background.
Kelley
2022-08-05 05:12:00 +0000 UTCYAY! so excited to listen.
Hanna Wen
