Paris,

I am stepping down as head administrator of wafrn.
I will be helping with the hosting, will aprove new accounts on the registration panel, and keep the software development as usual, but moderation wise on app.wafrn.net that's all I'll do.

I will keep myself at a technical dev part on the project.
I feel like I have failed in some stuff to create the best possible comunity for everyone.

I am too reactive (BUT GABO YOU ARE AN ANGULAR DEV NOT REACT). I react too strong to too many stuff emotionaly.

There have been a few situations, the most significant one one in tumblr.

I am not saying that the other parts in this are right, nor I'm saying ive been harrassed out by them (well yes ok I was harrased off tumblr by a bunch of messages telling me to kill myself but not the point). I am saying that I feel like even if I feel like I'm right, I reacted too wrong to said situations.

I've been to angry at some stuff that I shouldnt on a personal level. This has been affecting my mental health.

Wafrn will keep going, it has outgrown me and at this point I feel like Im holging it back by having too much power on the main wafrn instance. I feel like Im an idiot with too much power. Wich by the way, host more wafrns
https://codeberg.org/wafrn/wafrn/src/branch/main/docs/deployment.md

Ill be here, but thats it. comunications will be done throught @adminWafrn - software development and instance info now by the team.

Thanks @cwebberChristine Lemmer-Webber for the interesting presentation at SPUI25 tonight. Plenty of stuff I need to ponder on. I might need to experiment with some goblins and experience the joy of OCapN to be able to understand it more thorough. The ability for true p2p connection between people without servers intrigues me.

Not at SPUI?
Have a look at spritely.institute to get a glimpse of the things Christine was talking about. Interesting stuff!

When I pick up RPG rules the thing that stands out to me is lists: lists of character classes, skills, magic items, spells, monsters and so on. So when looking for precursors it's worth checking out lists as well as fiction and games.

I picked this book up on eBay. Published in 1967. I find it hard to believe that D&D wasn't influenced by this even though Gygax explicitly denies having read it. (It was republished under a different name and I bet he knew that version.)

Every single animal in the Animal section is in the Monster Manual 1e. Even the difference in speed between the two camels is explicitly mentioned. And why did the Monster Manual have entries for both Mammoths and Mastodons?

Anyway, this is a fun genre of book.

Oi ..

Check out this 2min walkthrough of 's upcoming data migration tool. It's the last big feature I'm delivering in 2025.

It uses the "LOLA" data portability spec to transfer account data from one server (like Bandwagon.fm) to a new one (like bandwagon.your-band-here.biz)

No CSV files required. Just authenticate and approve, and everything just moves.

There's tons more to do, but I'm confident this will be live by Christmas. 🤘🏻
