Ep. 84: Memes and Stuff With Twisted Logic Gaming

We are joined this episode by Twisted Logic Gaming, and a good time was had by all!

We originally planned to talk about megaprojects this episode, but we’ll have to do that next time since we had such a good time going off topic. Hope you enjoy!

Note: The mid-rolls were generated by Chat GPT based on information about my new fortress and me prompting it to rephrase that info in Tolkien style. For example:

rephrase in epic tolkien style:

Urist Quakeprestige is Militia Commander of Newtower. He is an adequate Macedwarf who feels that “You can always rely on your family withen everything else falls away”. Urist disdains self control, is frail, and quick to despair.

Urist is close friends with chief medical dwarf Mebzuth Budsabre – a hateful quarreler who values power. Mebsuth is a competent diagnostician, and an adequate surgeon, bone doctor and suturer. Mebsuth declares “I am well”.

Mebsuth’s friend Minkot Fencedfountain is patient, resilient, and has good focus. These traits make her an ideal fortress manager, which she will surely accomplish while also being the fortresses most competent cook. “An artisan, their materials and the tools to shape them” exclaims the 70 year old manager dwarf.

These seven dwarves are renowned as the elders of Newtower of Showing. Praise them with great praise.
