Weird one this week! A monneyless system in a working Scifi utopia. This was based on an idea Banes came up with talking about Star Trek and ...
QUACKCAST 517 - money in Scifi Utopia
Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, Feb. 9, 2021The Most Marvelous DC Comics Character (I Only Learned About Recently): Zatanna Zatara
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Feb. 8, 2021
It is always a good time when I learn about a fully-fleshed out character with a history, family tree, team affiliation, famous love-interest, and storyline. It is almost more of a mystery when a new character is discovered so late in the game I have to question why their existence ...
The Duo
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Feb. 6, 2021
We've all been told how in story telling, showing is a lot better than telling.
Showing gets hard if your main character is a loner that interacts with nobody. Even harder if he/she is a stoic that emotes very little. The audience will have no way of knowing ...
Top five romance tropes
Emma_Clare at 12:00AM, Feb. 5, 2021
It’s not surprising that drama and romance are two popular genres when it comes to media. From TV to novels to comics, they draw the audience in with the simple question: “Who is going to end up with who?” Ships set sail, twists get turns and hearts get broken ...
Star Trek Economics
Banes at 12:00AM, Feb. 4, 2021
I just finished a rewatch of The Mandalorian series and one of the things I thought about was the vicious profiteering and scramble for money (or ‘credits’, or valuable metals or what have you) that indicates what kind of economy is at work in that show.
Granted, so far we ...

Giftwrapped Toxicity
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Jan. 16, 2021
There is a gripe that I have when it comes to romance. It might be the reason I don't really like reading romance as a genre, and while I am aware that not all works in the romance genre are like this, there are too many for me to ...
Back From The Dead
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Jan. 2, 2021
So we've talked often about how letting a character die in a story is something that should be used very frugally, because once death occurs, it should be permanent. In most settings, death shouldn't be something that is reversible. If not, it will lose its impact, and the ...
Setting goals in 2021
Emma_Clare at 12:00AM, Jan. 1, 2021
It’s 2021 everyone. Somehow we made it to the end of a strange and often heart wrenching year but we did it. We hit many milestones, particularly on Drunkduck. We now have the lowest amount of spam ever on the site, the anthology is coming along, the Quackchat is ...
Merry Christmas
Emma_Clare at 12:00AM, Dec. 25, 2020
It’s Christmas.
