  • Hello, yes duckduckgo has an app that turned on a blocker to try to strip and block tracking attempts. I keep it running and it seems to catch alot.

    What raised my eyebrow was it started alerting on a lot of new tracking attempts for Sync. I mean alot of android apps do the same thing this isn’t just for Sync so it’s not doing anything unique there. It was also the laundry list of info points that seemed off.

    Figured I would post and see if anyone else has seen the same.

    I plan on buying the app, I assume those attempts will go away without the ads.






  • Cool glad to help. I played Red as well and while its perfectly fine, I felt it was just too much mechanics that get in the way of the story.

    Note on Sprawl: default system is deadly and high chance of body parts blown off or death it’s gritty but you can adjust to your taste. Embrace the chaos. Also stick to mission structure for first few games, a narrative will emerge naturally that just fits and you will know it, and that you can build into a campain around. Scary to start that way but it works well!

    As for PBtA in general it (for me at least) took a bit to grok how to run it. Once it clicked and I realized I didn’t need a ton of detailed prep, just going with the flow in game, and then putting my prep into vectors of story and world-building, and character complications, I feel in love. Your not making plot details, your adjusting around player decisions and adding complications… It’s a very diffeent take for me.

    There is a good actual play for the Sprawl that was a good primer to see how it works. Let me dig that up.

    Also this video is good too! Adam is a dbag for other reasons but this advise is solid https://youtu.be/xBkMOsZ7KDo
