I tend to put together playlists for particular campaigns or characters, mostly stuff without words. I usually let it play for a while to "get into the mood", then I -slip out of my clothes- (oops, wrong mood) turn it off when I get down to serious …

There's this great one called Papy- Oh... nevermind. Uh, Comic Sans? Seriously though, one I really like is Jura. Its vaguely futuristic, but very readable in bulk.

I like that abstraction, at least for simplifying systems that are natively more complex like d20. Of course, the approach from the card game Munchkin is pretty good too! You've got two hands, one pair of feet, one body for clothing, etc... and y…

bq. Just thinking of such a thing, I am inspired to uttter: “THE HORROR! THE HORROR!” - steeples fingers together malevolently - Yes. _Yeeesss..._ I have to ask, though, because I'm seeing what look like some serious responses. Its understo…

in Wiki navigation bar creation - formatting question January 2016

Hmm, in the realm of theorycrafting at the moment, but maybe try adding: @display: block;@ A div should be a block element by default anyway, but it looks like its ignoring the max-width property (make sure that's in there as well), which migh…

What mobile browser are you using? (Safari on iPhone, Chrome on Android, something more obscure...) When you update the test page, let me know and I'll take a look and see if I can't figure out whats not working. (maybe post a screenshot of what …

in Wiki navigation bar creation - formatting question January 2016 edited January 2016

The way you are using it, you probably don't need the "margin-left" and "position" properties. Remove those and replace with: @text-align: center; max-width: 100%;@ Should make the navbar take up no more than the width of its parent (the conte…

Plugging Fate Core again... Fate handles equipment with the assumption that you have any items necessary to do whatever your skills dictate. If you have a skill called Fight you are assumed to have a basic melee weapon of some kind. If you have D…

Yeah, I don't think terraforming is even in the realm of possibility for those moons, but in the sense of "habitable" I believe they are referring to here, there are sufficient natural resources to sustain a colony in a controlled environment. In te…

What we really need to do, in order to reduce load on the server resources, is implement an edit cooldown on wiki pages. For example, if someone saves changes to a page, that same page can't be edited again for another hour... That should throttl…

h2. Space Elevators and Economical Space Ventures I suspect any space-bound venture (including, but not limited to, asteroid mining) will only become truly economical once we have something like space elevators in place. Battling the planetary gr…

in The Rubicon is in sight! January 2016

Yah, doing a one-time purge (closing, not deleting) of, say... any help ticket that hasn't been updated in the last 90 days, would be acceptable in my eyes. Might still catch a few that legitimately need attention, but there needs to be a startin…

Savage Worlds would be next on my list too. It and Fate have very similar philosophies (and both are sort of "one size fits all" systems).

If you're in the market for a system, I have to plug my favorite: "Fate Core":http://www.evilhat.com/home/fate-core/ There's also an online SRD, so its free to use: "Fate SRD":http://fate-srd.com/ Basically, its a narrative focused system that…

in Featured Campaign of the Month January 2016

He's referring to the other aspects of a campaign beyond the wiki (adventure logs are a huge part, as well as characters, maps, etc...). CSS can do a lot to spice up a campaign, but its only effective if there is good content underneath. And beyo…

in A Totally Unofficial CSS Help & Tips FAQ January 2016 edited January 2016

Without looking at any specifics, if you're just trying to apply CSS to that area and not to similar classes in the public areas, it sounds like you just need to these classes to your selectors: @.campaign-public-layout@ versus @.campaign-d…

To killervp's point about help tickets: I think a big part of the problem is that there likely isn't a formal process for how tickets are closed at this point. My suggestion to OP (based on working with ticket/case systems in enterprise environme…

in FEEDBACK - Forum upgrades? January 2016 edited January 2016

Another "yes" to SkidAce's point. The current restriction makes it harder to run a PbP campaign - either no one can see what is happening, or you have to use some contrived method of using adventure logs as "live" forums. I believe in the past wh…
