Over at a post about bows and arrows, here, I used a phrase:
Sense-of-Disbelief-o-Meter.
It occurred to me that the acronym for that is SoDoM.
So when your SoDoM trips in play, you turn into a pillar of salt. Like a proper redshirt should.
I must work the SoDoM into future posts.
I am now outnumbered and flanked. We welcomed Melody Alexis Cole to our gaming circle yesterday. She clocked in at just shy of 50cm and 2.9kg, and thus far – with one exception last night – has been a pretty content little cuddle-monkey. Her big sister loves calling herself a big sister. Mom is feeling…
I did a practice run with some selfless volunteers last night using Hangouts On Air. Overall, I was pleased enough that I’ll use it for my upcoming video panel discussion this weekend.

Smith) was a grim action/horror RPG set in a dystopian future where evils of all kinds plague the globe. This one came out when I was in college. The Gulf War had kicked off, if I recall…

We picked up where we left off. Shiba, Thumvar, and Staver were in the thick of it on the right side of the battlefield, while Cadmus was preparing to invoke Smite again against something like eleven targets in range. Well, good plan. The other guys managed to not get too badly grappled and mangled by…

You sure you didn't do a backronym? because it's awfully convenient 😉
I swear. I typed in ". . . this doesn't break my Sense-of-Disbelief-o-Meter" and thought, 'hey, that's a useful concept.' Then I looked at the letters and said: "Oh,that's too good not to use."
