For me, fan score is a separate axis (how much fun is the film).

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Not once in my 40-odd years of life have I used a WYSIWYG editor that, once committed/submitted/saved, actually *gave me what I saw*
5·2 months agoYes but the html it generated was a monstrosity. If you wanted to edit it again, you better use dreamweaver.

rpg@ttrpg.network•Sinister reasons for beer price inflation?
7·2 months agoDepending on how medieval the setting is, hops were not the common bittering in many beers, it was a mix of herbs called gruit. If this mix’s ingredients are secret (or regulated), it would be easy to monopolize and drive the price up.
The price may be going up due to the cost of some profane adulterants being added in ever greater quantities…

Sorry for the long reply
Running Amber DRPG as a diplomacy focused story is certainly an option, especially if you’re doing a throne war campaign. There are certainly other setups beyond this (we started immediately following book 5 as grandchildren of Oberon). While every PC and NPC certainly has their own motivations and schemes, there is no requirements as to how political you need to be (Gerard notoriously hated the petty scheming of his siblings; Benedict doesn’t care as long as Amber remains stable).
As for advancement (which I think is what you’re alluding to with ranking change): if you’re following the book’s rules as written, the #1 in each rank for each generation cannot change (Benedict will always lead in warfare). Advancement is also blind, so you will no longer know your stats.
As for why it has run a long time: thankfully, I have a great GM that has crafted a compelling story and wonderful players that agree on the tone of the game and are reliable. It also helps that we started as 100pt characters, so there has been room for growth and development.
In my mind, it very quickly went from something implausible (how would that system work well) to one of my favorites after playing. Still lucky enough to be in a long Amber campaign with an awesome group.
You are thinking only of the modern G rating. Go back in time a bit to find G rated movies like:
- 2001: A Space Odyssey
- Planet of the Apes
- The Secret of NIMH
- many John Wayne movies including True Grit
Just like society’s thoughts on what is generally acceptable, the mpaa rating system has changed quite a lot over the years.

9·7 months agoThey might be referring to the Warner Brothers disc rot issue announced earlier this year (affecting some mid 2000s dvds). Ideally, things are made well and last a long time when stored properly.

News@lemmy.world•'Worst of the Worst'? DOJ Figures Show 97.4% of 614 Detained Immigrants in Chicago Had No Criminal Record
8·8 months agoIt’s even worse if they’re using “criminal record” the same way the FBI has historically (arrested but not necessarily convicted on a felony charge).
I don’t have up to date numbers, but c.2016 the FBI considered ~29% of Americans to have a criminal record.

It took my old ass way too long to realize that you were talking about the Imagine Dragons song (which was definitely overplayed) and not the absolute banger of a song from The Firm.

Most app devs fuck it up (especially the lazy bastards that just throw everything in /opt and call it a day). I like being the dev who won’t let my code ship until everything fits nicely into FHS 3.0.
There’s dozens of us.
