### Start of shameless copy and paste ###
First time visitor to OTT? Then please introduce yourself in the New Member Thread and look around in the Project System. Then come back and read on…

Read all of this before you start as it will save you any trouble later.
First thing you must do is make your “pledge”. It can be anything gaming related, big or small, and you don’t even have to finish it. No, in here, happiness is the road. Have fun doing whatever it is, but it is not a race. Accompany your work with pictures or we might think you are do something sinister and just using us for cover.
You are also presented with a few questions. It is to get the conversation started. Try and keep your answers ‘conversational’, no text speak, and certainly no “basically”. This is how we all get to know each other better. While you are here feel free to tell us a story, show a picture, joke, tales of love or woe, or just add your own little bit. This is the whole point…in here it is just us.
If you have never taken part before we may bark and bite, but we also like a cuddle! It is all done in the best possible taste and it is character building. feel free to give as good as you get.
A few other things to note: NO RELIGION & NO POLITICS! Glasgow pub rules are in effect. If you need to make a better point then it is fine, but don’t take the piss. And always keep it civil. This includes no philosophy, no home computer culture wars.
Play plenty of music to go with your work. Loud and through proper speakers. Write us a playlist of things we might not have heard before.
Now, after all of that there is only one ‘real’ rule in here and it cannot be broken: NO DICKS! (Exceptions may be made for little fighting men with little plastic/resin/metal wieners)
And don’t forget the highlights of the weekend: The Weekender on Friday and XLBS on Sunday. And the little show that is The Hobby Hangout over at twitch.tv
If you fancy to see some nice WIP pictures go to the WAYPN thread https://www.ontabletop.com/forums/topic/what-are-you-painting-now-2025-edition/
### End of shameless copy and paste ###
Question of the week:
And now back to the show.
Pledge: MAWM. Get it done man…. I find my lack of progress disappointing.
Answer: So I can sit at the desk & PC for hours. Sitting and painting is also possible. But this weekend I tried playing video games on my Switch in handheld mode on my lap and even though the actual gaming was comfortable the moment I looked up my neck went “OUTCH” and it felt like I was in a car accident with some kind of trauma XD Not fun, can’t recommend XD
Music:
Surely you know that you can connect the Nintendo Switch to a regular monitor/tv ?
You’d think that with 14 days of not having to work I’d be making great progress on Plunder … but somehow I just can’t get started. Brain always finds something to distract me with. I’ve used up my Claude tokens doing other things, but instead of me switching to something else I find myself waiting for them to reset.
oh … I also have the Discworld RPG now. Fabricati Diem PVNK !
Surely you know that you can connect the Nintendo Switch to a regular monitor/tv ?
Yes, of course but that’s the fun of a mobile console. Not only playing sitting on the couch but anywhere.
Um… Just noticed this:

I get why business daddy wants to make money from OTT but that “buy now” bar under every picture is “slightly annoying”. Not a fan.
