Re: What are you reading?
I'm kind of ashamed. I haven't read anything other than game books in a very long time. I got a few graphic novels for Christmas, but only made it through Hawkeye's and Gwen Stacy's before getting distracted. What I have been doing is testing the waters of audio books. I've been listening to 'Devil ...

Anyone Interested in Murder?
I know our focus over here is gaming, but I also listen to quite a few True Crime podcasts. Would there be any interest in discussion for recommendations for different True Crime shows?

Re: Interest in a Play by Post game?
I am interested. I have never successfully been in a play-by-post game that has gone anywhere, so I am curious.

Re: Worst Game Evar!
I'm not sure it qualifies as Worst Game Ever (because I do have some other con games that could qualify), but this one stands out. I had just gotten back into gaming and joined a game group. We were playing D&D in this GM's home brew world. I realized we were in trouble right away because every ...

Re: Rolling vs Role-ing
As a player, I regularly punish and exile my dice for misbehaving and always come with multiple sets.

Re: Rolling vs Role-ing
I've often pondered how to handle this as a GM. I take that whole 'Be a fan of the characters' thing to heart and I want to see the protagonists defeat the big bad or even the minor and annoying bad. But what do you do when the dice are fully working against a player? Even in a fail-forward game lik...

Re: Blake Ryan emerges from the Multiverse of Madness
It's totally okay to like both Marvel and DC and even favor one over the other. Honestly, neither would be as awesome as it is without the other one driving it forward.
