Spider-Mort, Spider-Mort! Hiding out in the druid's court. Will he live? Who can say? Let's hope it's not a TPK. Look out! Here comes the Spider-Mort!

[@michaelmorrison8679]

i just lol'd at work. hoping no asks me what is so funny.

[@jaybakata5566]

Epic! But if you keep doing that, you know all you are doing is giving Ted ideas for the opening poem, song, etc.

[@captaindudeman3613]

There is a bard amongst us!

[@chungbertflabbergast5995]

"This is the game of D&D I've always wanted to play." What an amazing thing to hear from a friend and player. I love the cameraderie you all have!

[@3D6DTL]

I was very chuffed. I 🫶 Ted. (But only Ted.)

[@syrneth8775]

It’s the game of D&D I’ve always wanted to play too. You’ve inspired me to run it for my group.

[@rrcabr]

Aww it's very sweet to hear Ted say this is the D&D game he has always wanted to play. And I think that's a sentiment a lot of us watching you guys can relate to!

[@Wyrmsblood]

Great detox. I love hearing you guys chat about old modules you've read and campaigns you've played in.

[@JosephCraig]

Jon is such a good ref and these group of guys are such good players. I try to run my games with the neutrality of a ref more than anything else. Such a tense situation, if these characters make it out of this situation this will be a story that all these players, Jon included, will remember. Many of us around here will as well. Such an amazing job guys. One of my favorite live plays I've ever listened to.

[@Steven.T.Y.]

I continue to love your show, guys! Great job! On a personal note, Jon, I am a fairly new dm, and your content has inspired me to run Dolmenwood for some friends; we're currently just past our second session. If they ever explore outside the wood, I've got Gosterwick keyed up as a point of interest. Thank you for introducing me to OSE play!

[@3D6DTL]

Huzzah! 🙌 Great to hear!

[@pauliusvidugiris5152]

I was hoping Ted will choose Mort to turn into a bat - would be gone from there already!

[@jaybakata5566]

Is death success? Let's go David. I love all 3d6 Down The Line videos!

[@Dirus-Nex]

Love the new tag line. Time to get a coffee mug that says it

[@jacoblee1328]

Great detox. Totally could have gone on for another half-hour, so much to discuss. Also, Jon's poker face.

[@michaelmorrison8679]

i STARE at him during these detox's hoping against hope that he'll give something away. One little "weal" or "woe"... is that too much to ask?

[@mattavaricios4679]

@@michaelmorrison8679 That's easy. Woe, Mike. It's always "woe."

[@cameronmaas2644]

I think there’s something interesting to say about that conversation y’all had in regards to everything being recorded. As a person who engages with the hobby in the standard fashion (running and playing in games every week), all I have to record my experience is notes, but you guys have a digital record. In a way, it sort of changes the game. Like Mike did, anyone in the party can go back and listen to past details and use them to their advantage. Something about that is surreal to me. I don’t know if there’s any real benefit or not, but it is interesting to think that you guys are creating a living artifact.

[@3D6DTL]

It is very nice to have the record of play for posterity, that’s for sure.

[@PastaMage]

Fantastic detox. I love hearing you guys reminiscing about games of old. I started playing DND in 2014 right around the time 5e dropped. But I got my start with an older GM playing 2e AD&D. When I was in it, it was fun, but I couldn't stand certain aspects of the game that just felt like they sucked, looking at you THAC0. But 3d6DTL has really really shown me the light and shown me what old school DND is all about and I LOVE IT. I kick-started Dolmenwood because of you fine lads. Please please please keep up the amazing work. Truly the most criminally underrated D&D live play. I mean it every time I say it. You guys make me look forward to every Tuesday and Friday morning :)

[@michaelmorrison8679]

dolmenwood is going to be hype

[@HighlyRegarded420]

You guys are great in a tight corner, youre gonna kick baboon butt for sure

[@michaelmorrison8679]

I LOVE this optimism

[@mattavaricios4679]

The question is just how much bab-butt can be kicked before the butts kick back?
