And you see that it is he draws it’s a little clumsy, but he draws a he draws a he draws a uh what looks like a dog like a little sort of canine shape that is sleeping on the on the ground. Yeah. And he draws a little pointyeared canine like a fox jumping over it. Oh, the quick brown fox jumps over the lace.

That's meant to be a puzzle?
That's such a cool little touch.
I learned that sentence in typing/computers 101 back in high school. It was for us to learn how to stay on our
"home row keys"
…aka where our hands/wrists are supposed to rest. Supposedly for comfortability & speed. This was way back in the day, tho, but this sentence was drilled into our heads, reminds me of Bart Simpson writing his sentences on the chalk board ππ€ͺ
Okay who else here has played FEZ and knows what puzzle I'm thinking about?!
I hope it's Sans Serif
Brennan is a great game master I have really been learning and admiring his narrative style and boundaries he is a magical mentor for game masters who feel overwhelmed about guiding their first game! Thank you for sharing your creative games this is a marvelous hobby strengthening tool ππ
I got it before she did, maybe I should play π
I LOVE this idea!!
the way she clocked it instantly as a universal translation phrase, siobhanβs sharp
The lazy RED dog. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy RED dog. God damnit.
I just wanna say, I managed to say the line before Siobhan did this time, and I'm so goddamn proud of myself for no good reason xD
I came up with "The glib czar junks my VW Fox PDQ"… no extra letters, but has 2 abbreviations/acronyms. Still happy with it though!
"oh I gotta get me one of these" is so tenth doctor core omg
Siobhan seems to be the only one focused on Brennen and what hes saying
What campaign is this? I'm new to D20!
odd fact: that phrase uses every letter of the english alphabet.
"…fox jumping over…"
Brennan chose to say those words to give her the solution and have a better flow of the game.
Well, pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs, she's a clever one.
Brennan has been messing with his system fonts too much… π
Dear le if us old schoolers immediately think of bill Murray in STRIPES.
Ally with the magnifying glass!π€£
This is a really easy "puzzle"
Shes named Sokoban ofcourse shes good at puzzles
well that was a waste of my time
Genius
It's a pangram — a short sentence that uses every letter of the alphabet. You can use it to quickly test a typewriter keyboard, or see how that new fountain pen feels making every letter when you write. I once made my own pangram: Black ghosts ventriloquize; few mix dip with joy.
are they playing D&D?
Nice try algorithm, but you're not going to trick me into watching some geek-ass dungeons and dragons bS
I mean, you can do that if you have a puzzle geek in your party. Every other party would just get annoyed and start to murder hobo the entire town, because they refuse to communicate.
It is great she has fun with completely pointless trivia, but you need to know your audience as a GM. That will not work for every party
UM AcKsHuAlLy, that sentence only uses all the English letters, not all the English sounds. (The sentence is missing sounds like /sh/ and /ch/, for example.) It would work to translate written Egnlish, maybe, but not spoken English.
And that man's name was…Mavis Beacon.
"Siobhan Is Too Good At Puzzles" puzzle is a famous word phrase that anyone that has installed a Font pack on any device should recognise. Low bar.
Is that drawing used because the character knows that the players speak English? Every language will have different sentences for using all letters, & some might have none. Would he have to use a different picture/sentence for speakers of different languages? What if he doesn't know what language someone originally speaks?
but wouldn't it only work if it happened to have every letter in your language? What if in my language it just sounds like "buh buh buh buh hub"?
This falls apart because how would the other guy know that that drawing included every letter in the alphabet of the language Siobhan is speaking?
okay but this is a very well known pangram, I knew what she was going to say before she started speaking…
"and it's a drawing of whaaat?" was this dude just asleep or on his phone or something the entire time
I don't understand. Doesn't make sense. Having all of the letters to a language isn't the language. You need the rules, the grammar, the correct pronunciation. The crystal wouldn't work
I think Ally might be the funniest person to exist. Their face with the magnifying glass got me out of nowhere.
1:00 Jodie? 13 is that you? What are you doing here?
This phrase instantly makes me think of the movie βStripesβ.
I lost it when the camera panned to Ally saying the phrase π π π
