My buddy suggested this as well. He said make sure to hide em good, or they'll probably steal em.

@HEAVY METAL

Game/Trail-cams can and are bolted to shit for precisely this reason.

Also use a ladder, chances are your buddies won't think to bring one and makes trying to rip the thing off with brute-force a hilariously precarious affair best observed from a second trail-camera. It doesn't need to be a tall one either, just a foot or two above eye level is often plenty.

I suggest game-cams since they are essentially motion-activated outdoors-rated night-vision capable surveillance-cameras... and are often better resolution than actual security-cameras (which are geared more for wide area coverage rather than being able to ID one wild animal from another of the same species).

The upside of these is that even if they cannot ID the person, they CAN tell the police which fingerprints came from the suspect and immediately narrows down their investigation. Plus they sometimes can grab a license-plate number, which is helpful.

But yeah, if bolts aren't your thing, metal banding straps screwed deep into the beam to the point that the head (which is a non-standard torx or square-drive-head) is hidden from view. Bonu points if the straps are further protected with a board nailed over it.

I also broke quarantine about 2.3 hours after being born.

There was even a news story about it.

[gives everyone mental image of fetal-Foster running loose as a biohazard in a hospital in lockdown]

Don't worry, I didn't make it to the vents.

You're a trailblazer.
Sorry if that's insensitive, I've always had a habit of trying to find the positive in literally everything.

Oh neat, the one eyed cool kids club.
-where do we sign-in?

Also deaf in the left ear due to a skull-fracture (blunt force trauma to back of skull when four). 1st grader punted a toddler like a football, landed badly.

Back then medical science wasn't um... long story short I just had to work harder in school... which probably skewed my perception of what a normal amount of difficulty is supposed to feel like.

Although unlike Heavy I'm a bit more of a defeatist in regards to my glaucoma in the event of say a zombie-apocalypse, since going blind would be roughly... I reckon a year after my stash of meds run out. And the migraines would probably do me in first.

When Does It Stop Being A "RP Idea"?

<Snipped quote by Yam I Am>

Probably when it's not interactive anymore? I've sadly turned things into that before and it becomes quite clear when no one is having any fun except the ones peddling the ideas

@LetMeDoStuff

I'd agree with this, that when it starts getting railroaded so hard the RP becomes more of a mildly interactive novel written on a George RR Martin timescale where the other players are essentially just providing writing-prompts and plot-pitches.

Ofc, when that happens all it takes is one Henderson to pull it off the beaten track to keep things interesting.

Although I found out the hard way that a savvy GM's counter to a Henderson is to retcon them into an NPC and then send them packing of to an early grave before they do any damage to the timeline... Essentially TVA/Loki style.
-Which is especially jarring in a nation-RP and the GM just retconned an entire continent after 2 decades. Followed by 14 others... It was easier just to retcon the person truncating their entire world to just themselves and their close friends from the franchise.

This isn't working out: Part 2

Oddly enough, Sun Tzu and the Art of War.

Not so much because they read it, but more because of the fact that they're prominently displaying it as though actively brushing-up on it in order to impress me.

It won't.

Don't be mistaken, it's full of good advice. But it's vague and old, with just enough usefulness on its own to fake competency at something. It's pretty much a 1st edition self-help book plus the language-barrier of being just abstract enough to be misquoted harder than the King James Bible.

It being laid on the table can mean one of three things:

1. They haven't actually read it yet. Yet I should be impressed they managed to get ahold of a mass-printed book.
2. They're brushing up on it because they're going through a rough-patch.
3. They've read it, and want to feel superior by letting everyone know it.

1 and 3 are obvious why I probably want out. 2 isn't. Trying to dig your way out of a specific problem, likely a highly modern and technical issue involving finances and modern legal constructs... and the book they reached for to solve it was Sun Tzu.

>They don't need Sun Tzu, they need a lawyer.
And if they're trying to outmanuver and manipulate my emotions based only off of Sun Tzu, they've came rather unarmed.
