It is a very good sales person. But he didn't understood how could the network (or Internet) change the world, even with his Windows monopole. He had Encarta and lost it, without reusing it, to Wikipedia.

He sold his first software before it was even finished to his own unuversity.

He saved Apple to avoid an antitrust trial.

It's just business right?

Yes and let's not disturb them. They may discover something interesting? And perhaps avoid to disgust people from our hobby by explaining that math is a must and classes too? I'm not even sure if I am trolling on purpose or because of the topic.

Never touched Dungeon and Dragons' stuff. And I am a dev.

I don't want to point again the impression that some DnD players seem to think that DnD is the only way to play ttrpg... but well.. it's tempting, doesn't it?

Thank you! Fixed :)

Are you referring to this? https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/344554/decorum

Google docs is a no-go. But I was looking at etherpad indeed.

Thank you. I'll check again what it proposes.

Then I have to pick a system. I'll check if I can play without a system or something which is out of our way.

I didn't see that I could just create character sheets and adapt then during a session. Can you?

Self hosting the frontend is eas but since 2 weeks, the frontend doesn't connect to the backend, a private company which updated theeir API.

Still thank you. I'll check.

I would like to draw a table, add words and numbers, and that's all. I don't want to have to code anything. I am GM-ing Blades in the Dark, with Deep-cut, and some things we took from Fate and others. I want to be able to freely create anything, even in the middle of the session. We don't need automation. I want simplicity.

Yes. The backend service they rely on has changed its API and they said that they have no plan at all to follow. I discovered them only after they left peerJs (an alternative, which is interoperable and open source).

Thank you but it isn't self-host-able.

Yes, but it is closed source and I heard of plug in to add games and so... I don't want to have a table for few stats and items.

Still thank you for the idea.

KKK is bad, wrong, ... Playing them should be discussed... I would have an issue with someone who finds impersonating a KKK member fun.

We should paste here the intro of Eat the Reich about nazi NPCs and how to deal with that.

I encourage you to try Everyone is John then.

But it isn't really a ttrpg: it's a gamebook.

So the system is the reason (or the excuse)?

Side note: is it still valid with the new version which isn't a new version but worst than the previous? I heard some things are now people.
