Looking for RPG Blerds who want to Learn/ Play Mage the Ascension!

Hi all,
I have been seeing a lot of posts (mostly on threads) from Blackfolk that want to learn how to play RPGs mostly DnD. So I wanted to make an all black table on Discord to teach people one of my favorite RPGS- Mage: The Ascension. It is a modern setting where players are mages that bend and occasionally break reality. The magick system is amazing and goes deeper than just spending manna and casting a spell.
If you want to try I'm doing one session on Tuesday 7/7 at 12:30 EDT and another on 7/9 at 7:00 EDT on Discord.

[online] [Free] [Cyberpunk] [one-shot] [Sunday 6/28 12:30 PM EDT] [18+] [Beginner Friendly] [BIPOC Friendly] [LGBTQ+ Friendly] Easy Money/ Hard Luck

Hello Chooms!

I'm Campbell (He/Him) and in honor of Free RPG Weekend I would like to invite you to a Free beginner friendly original one shot of Cyberpunk Red called Easy Money / Hard Luck.

When: Sunday June 28 @ 12:30pm EDT

Where: Discord and Owlbear Rodeo

Sign up link and full info can be found here: https://startplaying.games/adventure/cmqvi2yyr003yjm047t303y50

Synopsis: Even though the radiation levels have cooled, times are still hard in Night City. Management Conglomerates squeeze their tenants for every EuroDollar they can for rent. Bribery is just another form of civic life. It is easier to find a braindance of someone eating a Michelin -Burijisuton Star meal than it is to find regular fresh food. Yeah the Time of the Red is tough. But a Fixer by the name of Easy Ed is going to make it a bit better for you Choomba. He just called you and a few of your associates for a quick job. Low risk, good pay and a boost to your Rep. What could possibly go wrong with a little delivery?

Easy Money / Hard Luck is a beginner friendly one shot for Cyberpunk RED. Your characters will have to use their wits, luck and style to survive in Night City.

making a new set up for both records and digital need reccomendatns

Hi everyone,

I used to do strictly analog Jungle and Drum and Bass back in the day. A few years ago I sold my turntables and mixer and now I'm on a new city and have some means to get back in to it. Its been a long time and the tech has gotten pretty amazing but my dnb collection is too massive for me to digitize efficently. I've messed around with a ddj200 DDJ 400 but ultimately I want a setup that has a mixer 2 turntables and can link to rekordbox. I'm thinking a USB Mixer that can let me switch from Phono to Line so I can play normal records or controller records for my digital songs. So any recommendations on how I can do this for between 1000 and 1400 would be greatly appreciated. (I already have a laptop, monitors and headphones)

Feel free to DM me for any questions.

The Mages of the CMOC:

Wip Conduit Bridege and Pumphouse scratchbuild Necromunda/GDFG

Heyall so this is something I started during spring break last month and picked up again this week for Necromunda and Grimdark Future Fire Fight. All started when some coffee stirrers stuck to a medication bottle. Led to me diy-ing I beams and raiding my 20 year old box of leftovers from a GW store that closed down.

Philly Junglist Listening Session on Wednesday 5/13 7-9PM

Hey all, so through a surprising set of circumstances, I'm going to be hosting a listening session mostly of 90s and early 2000's with u/clubfriendsradioandrfecords popup spot at 900 Market Street this Wednesday from 7-9 pm. It will be a chance to talk about music and listen to some classic and obscure but all dope jungle from between 1993 and 2003 over an amazing intimate soundsystem. Basically like hanging out in your living room with a club quality system! $10 to help cover the cost of the space.
