I was wondering why the DM would even need to make a call, but I guess that would be relevant.
Any DM that said no without a reason for a lack of ants would be a bad DM.

In DnD, you only roll if there is a chance of failure. If the DM is having you roll for stuff that is blatantly obvious then they are doing it wrong.
I love the implication that the GM conciously decided that there was a chance of failure.
I laughed, then had to crank down my volume manually since loops has no volume setting.
At that point go with a ridiculously long password to further decrease the odds of a lucky guess.
If the password is changed while the Planck Cruncher is doing its thing, and it changes to something that the PC has already guessed and tested negative, the PC is screwed.
Hint: Change your password regularly.
No.
In the real world having an actual high quality lengthty password is enough to deter anyone who is trying random accounts to move on for easier targets and anything that someone has physical access to, like law enforcement who confiscated something, will have an easier time bypassing the username and password process.
Changing passwords frequently leads to easier to break passwords, especially when you follow the practice of using a different one for different systems.
What sites are still using image captchas and not “Click here if you are not a robot”?
I just realized I don’t surf the web randomly anymore, mainly because of crap like that.
This would work for a short while as long as the user knows their hardware.
Woohoo, 10 years later!
Yes, it undercuts Frenzy which isn’t good enough to deserve exhaustion. It was story based design that worked against itself.
There are valid concerns and invalid concerns because a huge assumption is that the DM won’t use the rules about being able to address edge cases. A large and complex system will always end up with some weird combination that can be abused, but as long as there are a reasonable number and they don’t come up often then the system is fine.
5e does have some basic problems like exhaustion undercutting barbarian rages, but the vast majority of online examples of things being broken involve a massive misreading of the rules by ignoring context, vague rules (a separate problem from being broken), or people thinking an outcome is broken when it is just the system working as intended. Like being able to use Shield Master to knock down/shove opponents with a bonus action before making attacks since the bonus action rules say it can be in any order. Knock them off a cliff and no opponents? Ok, since you must attack on the same turn your action is lost because it could only being used to attack. That doesn’t make it broken, and it is addressed as an edge case by the DM.
Again, some things are broken, but most of the things people call broken are just edge cases that can easily be handled by the DM being overblown in a game that has too much focus on fiddly combat while being written with the story first.
Seems pointless if everything is redacted.
Whois is extremely helpful for non-malicious purposes just like phone books used to be.
Nah, he is just too incompetent to completely run it into the ground.
Unless tou know they are malicious narccisists, them attributing it to malice is the logical thing to do. Plus hate and pig-headedness are common movitators for malice…
NPCs and monsters automatically die at zero HP in DmD 5th and the editions prior that I was the DM for. There was a reminder that the DM could choose to let them go under, but the default was death on zero for non-player characters and monsters.
Just imagine tracking death saving throws for every NPC and weak monsters…
Yeah, but that would be treated like poison damage at a later time with a savings throw.
I mean, there is plenty of time to lick lips on the way to the hospital.
They are great to have both to confirm what we think we know and they occasionally result in surprising discoveries! In this case though, the headline made it sound like a surprising discovery.
Or just reward their creativity…
