    @howyadoin said in Arx:

    Arx also had a secret system that tied most into some aspect of the metaplot or history, giving every character something they could pursue out the gate that was more or less “theirs” and could hook in to wider story arcs.

    To clarify, this was a system about Character Secrets, not a system that was secret.

    No, the systems were secrets, too. Every time I tried to learn a system to be able to answer questions on help chan or to try to recruit folks, it always ended in more confusion.

    @Gashlycrumb Also, chances are most of the people you (general not specific) have a problem with have a similar opinion of you so 1) Why would they care? 2) Why would they be surprised? People are allowed to avoid games because of Staff (whether your own issue or in support of someone else) so it seems hypocritical to not allow Staff the same option especially when they’re the one putting in the effort to run the game.

    FYI, AI detectors are still kinda crappy.

    Can AI Detectors Be Trusted? The Authors Guild Put Five of Them to the Test

    “Our test confirms that while a couple of AI detection tools accurately identify human-authored text, some commonly used consumer-facing AI detection tools are wildly inaccurate, which presents a major risk for authors. Moreover, these tools change constantly—updated models, shifting benchmarks, evolving AI outputs—and their accuracy at any given moment cannot be assumed.”

    Pangram Flagged My Own Writing as AI

    Regarding false positive benchmarks: “that benchmark tests pure human text and pure AI text under controlled conditions. It doesn’t describe real-world use cases”

    Hello old friends. Don’t worry I promise this will not be a regular thing. But I wanted to let folks know I am streaming again, if any of you want to stop by a chat at any point. You can find me at: https://www.twitch.tv/desideriumash

    I am going to be streaming a cozy library clean up game (you clean up over 3k books that got knocked off selves with magic powers), will be likely streaming boardgames with EmmahSue and Thenomain tomorrow (maybe), and vampire farming sim Moonlight Peaks on Fridays.

    Stop by if you want!
