Having it open source, does not make it good. I think I'd prioritise making it fun, try to.make a profit, and then open sourcing it. I don't think having it open source will help you sell copies... you might sell less. Make your money first, have a feasible business strategy, so you don't go bust. Then try to keep the game alive vis open sourcing it.

Cloudflare is a decent service, with really good security. Plus, with their tunnelling feature, they’re helping to keep you private. If you just pointed your A record to your IP, that’d be visible to everyone. Instead, your A record is just visible to Cloudflare. Plus it’s handy if you’re using them to forward a bunch of services onto the net. Not to mention all the other security features you can use. DNS records by design, are not private.

Swing alignment to Evil. Prepare a Children of the Corn adventure, themed to fit the particular patron.

Depending on your server, and how you install you might have a bad experience. I’ve had issues where it wasn’t finding the film/series metadata, having plugin issues, and being incredibly slow (slow UI when anything is being done, slow scanning folders, slow loading saved metadata, etc). Jellyfin, like a lot of open source software, feels like jank. The devs know about a lot of issues, but they’re swamped with so much, with this big of a project.

People criticise Plex, rightfully so with some of their bad decisions, but it still works better. For me, Plex runs so much better, and without issues. I won’t be moving away to Jellyfin in the foreseeable future, but I’ll be glad when I am able to.

I’m slightly tipsy, so I read that as “I’ll keep my orgasms a little longer, thanks.” The image still works.

Honestly, I don’t even remember it being that funny. I haven’t gave it a second thought since its release. The power of social media marketing, I guess.

If you’ve never seen Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, I’d encourage you instead to take a look at Shaun of the Dead, and Hot Fuzz, both really good movies.

I mean… welcome to the internet. It’s not just Reddit, but most social media, and some “news” sites.

For reference Invisibility would make you invisible, but you still can be detected by sound, smells, tracks, etc. it’s not an instant win, for stealth. As such, you get advantage on Stealth checks.

Spell aside, have you considered other game systems? Something that doesn’t use dungeons? There are many around, some are more RP oriented, some more base building/strategy oriented, and so on. I say this because a dungeon crawl is a classic experience for D&D, I mean it’s right in the name.

True, but I was thinking more in a dungeon, where a simple door, can block them (or make them take a completely different, unique route. Also note that invisible creatures still need to make Stealth checks, usually more than one.

No. Here’s a pretty good explanation from the qBittorrent forums:

Your ratio is what percentage you have given back to others of what you have taken. For example, if you download something, and have a .5 ratio on that file, that means you've shared back half of what you've taken.

Ideally, you should strive to always seed to 1.0 meaning you have given back the same amount that was taken. In an ideal world, this would assure that no torrent ever has to die. Private trackers may have more specific rules about what ratio you must maintain, either overall (across all torrents you download) and/or on each individual torrent you grab. Check the specific trackers you participate on for their rules.

If you deal exclusively with public trackers, then 1.0 should be your minimum goal.

Personally, I’d put your ratio at 2.0, if you have the available data allowance, and bandwidth. Help others like you’ve been helped, even on public trackers.

For the mind, I don’t think it is a good scout. I see it as more of a flavour ability.
