I just got reminded in a discussion about #ttrpg related music that the opening music of Hayore Nyaruko-san openly references Call of Cthulhu game mechanics.
Which might have been obscured in the West by fansubbers not knowing wth SAN is.
(the anime also multiple times shows CoC character sheets and die rolls when dramatic stuff happens)
Wir hatte am Samstag Abend eine gute Runde #coc wie ich fand, auch wenn das Setting nicht nur wegen des Mythos durchaus "sperrig" ist. Ich freu mich auf jeden Fall auf die Fortsetzung unserer Adaption von "Eiskalte Ernte" und bin gespannt was unsere Investigatoren mitten im Nirgendwo im Sovchos "Roter Oktober 3" noch herausfinden...... oder auch nicht.... ;) #pnp
@Fuchskind Die Woche wird beruflich und privat durch die anstehenden Termine recht anstrengend. 
Als Ausgleich gibt es dafür #CoC am Samstag. (;,,;)

This isn't something you can hide anymore. This will be clear to anyone with access to an LLM and the wherewithall to see what defines community morale.
Basically this means that as I've always said: THE #COC IS OPTIONAL, and that is intentional. Now you can allow people to play favourites, have insider cliques, enforcers, yada-yada-yada and so forth.
When public officials then figure this out, they will avoid you like the plague, because they already have previous experience with this sort.

FreeINT nannte sich irgendwann um in Schattenklinge. Doppelt hab ich die Nummern 13, 17 und 20, alle aus den 1990ern.
Das Fanzine widmete sich Runequest, Cthulhu, Stormbringer und anderen BRP-Spielen.

Question: What #CallOfCthulhu scenarios feature travel to other dimensions?
@shimminbeg I don't know of any werewolf encounters in German #CoC adventures, though I can search through my stack. But I do know of quite a few werewolf appearances in German folk tales, if that helps.
This took a while but we have updated our Code of Conduct and our Mediation document to provider more safety in our spaces.
Among others the CoC now specifies explicitly marginalized people, intersectional feminism and harassing/stalking. It also mentions permacomputing and consent as a way we approach computing.
The mediation document has a defined procedure now and also contact points for people wanting to report things.

Hello o/ I am excited to announce Bechamel a collective around the software knows as Guix (which most people use through the Gnu channel of Guix)
Bechamel is something I started as a much easier way for people to contribute to a guix channel (no emailing patches, workflow not built around Emacs, xmpp used instead of irc). It also aims to be a more private and safes space to contribute to Guix things (like using the JoinJabber CoC and the soon the Cooperative Software Development Guidelines) among other things. Rationale: https://codeberg.org/Guix_Bechamel/collective#why
There are also some other plans including tackling the long-standing accessibility problems in Guix, adding pilul support to guix, rust/python build system improvements and much improved and updated support for xmpp things. Hopefully you are going to see me post a lot more about it from now on :)
At the moment it has updated Gajim the XMPP client to 1.9.5 which brings around 2 years of updates. It also has started having some extensive practical documentation around Guix. And some other things like cerca the forum software.
- Repository for packages (gajim/cerca): https://codeberg.org/Guix_Bechamel/guix_bechamel
- Repository for the Bechamel collective including Documentation https://codeberg.org/Guix_Bechamel/collective
- Organization in Codeberg https://codeberg.org/Guix_Bechamel

Do you need Code of Conduct Enforcement training in 2025?
Fill out my workshop time survey:
https://forms.gle/bXp5M8S7F7nbbJkd9
Help me figure out what time to run my monthly Code of Conduct Enforcement workshops.
http://otter.technology/code-of-conduct-training/
With people needing training in Europe, Africa, Asia, Latin America, and North America, it's impossible to find one single workshop time that works for everyone. So each month I pick a different time zone to best accommodate.
If you are a conference organizer, please let me know which month and time you need training!
You can either fill out the form, or send an email to sharp@otter.technology
Hey long time no see :D
I am revising currently the @joinjabber
CoC listed here https://joinjabber.org/about/community/codeofconduct/
with some things that are long overdue to be added like the Public Health Pledge I saw from the excellent @onepict and also the permacomputing principles that i was introduced by @320x200
I also want to add some kind of commitment to safety and give platform to under represented groups kind of like outreachy does it. Is anybody aware of any document that i can get inspiration from or link directly like the Health Pledge? Feel free to share of course :D

@Fuchskind Die liebe @Deathcat2508 leitet gerade nochmal spontan ein kleines #CoC Oneshot für die Lieblingsfrau, für @elera_mortis und für mich. 
Quasi als privaten Ausklang des #SommerregenCon.
I think my “bucket list” of grand campaigns I want to run someday are:
Red Cow — Glorantha
Great Pendragon Campaign — Pendragon
Darkening of Mirkwood — One Ring
Ones I’ve already done and would recommend:
Modron March / Infinite Staircase / Dead Gods — Planescape
Masks of Nyarlathotep — Dark Heresy
Enemy Within — Warhammer Fantasy
@juergen_hubert @Kenan @satchel I would even argue, that in the German language area #dnd5e / #corpodnd led to a diversification of „the“ #ttrpg scene:
a) New and especially younger (!) players entered the hobby via 5e.
b) New 5e players seem to be more open to other games as compared to veteran players stuck in what I refer to as the „potato 
triangle“: #DasSchwarzeAuge (genre: trad clunk 
) + #CoC + #Shadowrun, three games that used to dominate
@Fuchskind Im Moment habe ich zwei feste Runden, die schon seit Jahren bestehen. In einer huldigen wir regelmäßig Cthulhu bei #CoC, in der anderen spielen wir SciFi Sachen, meist unter #GURPS. Aktuell läuft da unsere #InfiniteWorlds Dauerkampagne und irgendwann ist dann mal #Traveller geplant.
Ein bis zweimal im Jahr zocke ich auch auf Rollenspiel Conventions. 
After a recent discussion with @smallcircles I decided to post an example of a good CoC (in my mind) and also good rules for community governance.
It seemed clear to me that there is not many good examples out there including https://participate.coding.social/
What I consider good CoC and good community rules are rules that take into account:
- The amount of harm tech "optimism" mentality does to a community and society as a whole.
- The amount of harm and disproportionate incentives and abilities including for profit - capitalist companies does to a community. looking at w3 for example.
- The amount of harm including states, cops, weapons and everything that comes with them brings to a community. nixos and element also learned this.
Good community culture rules can build on top of that to show what can find of culture is encouraged and signal to people what kind of behavior is tolerated or not. A good community relies on people to speak up autonomously without always going to a moderator.
