YoHo Ho me hearties, prepare to be entered by...
Pirates of the High Teas
If you were tempted to open, you might have seen 3 red flags immediately.
- Logo in troon flag colors
- Being described as whimsical
- Having the most homogay premise possible, apart from knitting...
My Roger is most definitely not jolly.

>compete to gain the affection of the captain
Just play a pirate-themed session of Maid RPG.
And not only is this this company's first Kickstarter, but also their first game in general (though there's quite a bit of "work in progress" stuff).
Worst of all the head lady(?)
is a complete n00b at publishing.
I'd say it's very likely there will be a lot of drama surrounding untimely delivery and the printing quality.
I’ve spent my professional life as a woman in tech, with all the baggage and lived experience that goes with it. As I’ve risen to leadership roles, I’ve been intentional about kicking down doors for those coming behind me, pushing to get seats at the table for those whose voices should be heard, and being an advocate and ally whenever I can. I was surprised to discover many of the same problems in tabletop game industry as in tech with respect to representation and inclusion across people of color, women, members of the LGBTQ+ community, and other dimensions of diversity. Following the groundwork I've laid in my tech career, I’m exploring what I can do to help. Becoming a publisher will put me in the driver’s seat, able to work with diverse collaborators and continue bringing new voices to the table.
She's fighting the good fight for all SJWs.
The diversity of gamers is growing. Or more likely it has always been there, but we just couldn’t tell because only certain games were getting made, which created a self-reinforcing cycle. The big question is how to reach the people who would enjoy games some of these unpublished gems.
People don't need your help to get shit published. They use Kickstarter
like you do.

I can't help but read "Character Discoveries" as "Disorders" and it really fits that this group of blithering retards would be on a quest to pick up as many personality disorders as they can.
Think of it as saving you from a hit being every new disorder being a fresh excuse to not being able to work.
It's really just a schizophrenic POV of a commie faggot.

It'd be like a reverse Uno. Whoever has the most disorders in his hand at the end wins.

Jeremy Crawford
got "let go" by WotC, likely thanks to the poor performance of 6e.
He's a corprate drone who has done almost nothing outside of WotC, and literally nothing outside of d20. He is responsible for baffling decisions like removing Half-Elves and -Orcs on the bases that half races are "racist", and his answers to rules questions are so bad you're usually better off doing the
opposite of what he suggested (unless you're cool with your players being able to
summon shit through walls).
He will not be missed. Though that probably won't stop him from doing a 5e hardbreaker on Kickstarter or something.
