US citizen-- 3-month Airbnb in Ontario while I intern in Buffalo.

Hey all,

I'm a US citizen college student with a 3-month summer internship in Buffalo and am considering an Airbnb in Ontario (my closer apartment plans fell through). Would it be illegal to work in the US while staying in Canada for this duration?

Thank you for your time!

EDIT: side question, would having to cross the border 2x a day take so long / I'd experience such scrutiny that it wouldn't be worth it?

Hey all,

I have a lot of halfway-developed ideas for modules/one-shots (my post history is proof). I get intimidated when I get to the stage of developing into playable material and assume my ideas, while cool, are too difficult / unwieldy to implement as they are, and then I go off to another underdeveloped cool idea. E.g.,

  • "no, that won't work, the players have no good reason to be going into the basement of a frat party. (I guess I'll give up and return to this 3 months from now and give up again.)"
  • "Chernobyl as a dungeon is not going to be interesting to explore--there's no NPCs to talk to inside! (this seems impossible. I guess you should change the setting.)"

For those of you who have made modules / one-shots, what is your process? I mean from start - end. Some more specific questions to choose from:

  1. Do you use a structured process for development? If so, what is it? (eg, first develop X, then Y; also, a planned out taskflow)
  2. What do you develop before the very first playtests? (and is that playtesting with other people?)
  3. What tools (adventure structure template, mindset/questions you ask yourself...) do you use to develop/transition cool ideas to playable material?
  4. If you worry / get intimidated that your ideas won't work, how do you overcome that?
  5. Are there any resources you would recommend? (I have bought the WOM and am going to be reading it!)

Thank you for your time! I appreciate any and all answers.

EDIT:

These questions also apply to just making up adventures for your players! This isn't just for those who make published modules.
