DM Tales

It’s Monday, I didn’t want to get out of bed, and my allergies have my brain wandering the paths of misfiring synapses. On the plus side, I’ve had my coffee. These are some random TTRPG thoughts.

1. Ecclesicon was wonderful, and I’m seeing a lot of the attendees pop in to each other’s discord servers and commenting on each other’s streams. This is awesome.
2. My pool of potential players for game tests has expanded. This makes me happy and means I might be able to attempt some more actual play streams as well!
3. I’m always honored when someone invites me to join a table.
4. Forbidden Lands has reached a high spot in my review queue, and I’m planning a test crawl soon!
5. I played BFRPG in person for the first time at Ecclesicon. Dave Ward, who rolled up a character so he could play at the con, is now joining the party as a regular. Yay!
6. Circumstances keep getting in the way of my Monday group completing our Shadowdark funnel. Arrrrggghhh!
7. One of my players recently told me, “You’ve turned me into a mechanics snob, and I love it.” Achievement unlocked ¹.
8. If you’ve never been to a convention, I recommend it. It might be better to start small, unless you’re a true extrovert, but conventions are a ton of fun. One cool aspect you meet folks who become “convention friends” and it makes going back even more fun.
9. I have enough cameras to do an in person actual play stream. it’s the mics that are vexing me. It might be fun for a charity event, though.
10. I’ve been asked to do a one shot day over the Summer. The problem is I don’t have a space I can air-condition well enough to make it comfortable. But it would be fun.
