>Formatting guide for everyone: Dice (type this in “options”): dice + [no. of dice]d[no. of sides on the dice] (optionally you can add modifiers: dice + [no. of dice]d[no. of sides on the dice]+[modifier]; for a negative modifier type: +-[modifier]
Examples: dice+1d100 = a 1d100 roll, dice+1d100+10 = a 1d100 roll with a +10 modifier.

>QM question: What quest (or quests) inspired you to run? Why?
>Player question: What were your favorite quests of 2024? Why?
>General question: What would you like to see out of the board, and questing in general in 2025? Is there a specific quest you hope to run, or a pitch you have if you're unable to run but want to gauge interest?
>Lurker question: Suck it up and brave the timer, nothing makes a QM happier than lots of votes!
>Miscellaneous question: Did you make a New Year's Resolution? How's it going? Better yet, what's your quest new year's resolution?

>>6212188 Much like Paradox and their games, he gets a pass for being the only one who does stuff in his niche. Also because he doesn't flake. Yet.

>>6212188 true and the fact that bananas believes he deserves free (You)s is a painstaking display of his entitlement.
Even degens like soj are exponentially better in spite of their fickleness. yes, they drop like flies, but bananas relies on incelbait and /pol/bait to rake in his (You)s

DrDragonfagQM !2gxW5JDLSc ID:BBHN5Jsa Thu 13 Mar 2025 23:34:15 No. 6212272 Report Well despite all the flaws of the author and the quest, I like Banana work and I engage in his drawquest whenever I see them because of the art, the story he want to tell, meaningful choice, and an unhealthy enjoyment of the shit-flinging

>>6212188 >>6212202 >>6212224 >>6212272 Even though certain choices by players and QM alike have frustrated me at times, I still believe Space Monke to be probably the best quest on the board in terms of raw effort and end product. Like, not always the VERY best for writing, or the highest technical skill for art, but quite competent, distinctive and enjoyable in both regards, and one of the quests I would point to if trying to get someone to see the unique value of this hobby/medium.
Bananas himself seems like an okay enough fellow, too. I don't exactly know him well, but I don't have any problem with him, and in my brief stint on the Discord I found him polite and civil. Anonymous
>>6212279 Now if only it didn't have a blatant samefag problem. Once you get autists willing to do it, it's hard to shake it off. Bad luck.

>>6212287 He started doing the same thing I do for contentious votes, which i think helped a bit. Other anons insist it does nothing, though, and get mad about it, so who knows?

>>6212289 It helps and doesn't. It does limit the bare minimum effortless samefags, but it does nothing against the dedicated ones who keep a bunch of different static IDs with posts along the thread, and perhaps even helps them by giving the illusion of security.
Of course, at that point you don't have anything you can do short of going full schizophrenic and tracking the posting patterns of everyone in the thread

Better than nothing, and it DID seem tor educe the number and frequency of dubious monke-business, at least to my eye.
He gets way more votes than my quests, and I pay less close attention than in my own as well. >going full schizophrenic and tracking the posting patterns of everyone in the thread I've seen too many confident schizoanons very confidently proclaim a false positive to believe even THAT would work.

>>6212401 I'd really recommend One Life in particular, if you don't mind playing a bit of catch-up on past threads. It's a really spooky and interesting one, with an amnesic cabby trying to solve a paranormal (?) mystery while still unsure who he is or what "normal" even looks like.

You know, with how popular the show is on Amazon, I would have expected someone to run an Invincible quest. I for one would be very interested to see what kind of original plots someone could cook up in the setting, given the extended materials. What do you guys think about Kirkman's book and its tie-ins? Y'all think you could make the protag of the quest interesting without making them OP/a Viltrumite? If so, how?

>>6212806 Tbh I like Invincible, but I don't find anything about the setting lote especially interesting compared to any other capeshit. It's the characters that sell it for me.
>>6212673 You guys take me way too seriously. Sometimes the difference between S and A is a particular arc or thread, or just mood, and anything on the chart is something I appreciate and am glad for

>>6212806 Anon ran a game where the mustache guy was building a harem of DCAU chicks. I think it died though.

Quoted By:
>>6213003 That one was very goofy, but there was a more serious approach at an Omni-Man in DCAU without a harem at play, and instead some intiguing because he reocgnzied Hawkgirl as a Thanagarian spy well before the events of Starcrossed.

Aspen has successfully captured one of the terrorists responsible for the Capitol bombing. Now, after much interrogation, a nationwide manhunt for the rest has begun. While the 3-letter agencies track them down, it’s Aspen’s job to turn his focus abroad and towards the source of this terror.
