Taking an ill-advised leap, I am writing this on Tuesday night at 10 PM. My brain is getting drowsy, I haven’t had caffeine in hours, and my attention span is non-existent. Through it all random thoughts still manage to crash through my psyche like runaway tramcars on the Wildwood boardwalk. These are random TTRPG thoughts.
- I look at other GMs and see how much better they are at this than I am and think I must not be any good at all. Imposter syndrome sucks. I have groups, we have fun. I’ll try to just stick with that.
- As I was writing my intro for this post I had someone call me a liar on another video. Why? They didn’t think I was a pastor because my videos are about TTRPGs. People really can just suck, and I try to have that make me sad for them instead of angry. I’m not great at this.
- I’m working on Ecclesicon, and some badges have been purchased! This is going to be a fun event!
- I am well into writing my review of The Electric State. Writing it has reminded me how much I enjoy its simplified Year Zero Engine.
- PAGE was so much fun, and I can’t wait to do it again next year.
- Jorbin, from Elder Goblin Games, is as fun and kind in person as he is online. I’m so glad I got to meet him in real life.
- The TTRPG hobby is absurd, but that’s why I love it. We play as characters in made up worlds and tell stories where heroes exist, noble defeats are remembered, and hope burns bright for a new day where justice reigns. Looking around at the world we live in, these concepts all seem to be absolute absurdity. And that’s why being part of these stories is so essential.
- My third Sentinel Comics RPG playtest is going to be in person. Now I just need to overcome the greatest TTRPG villain of all…scheduling.
- I’ve added a third player for my Hobby Lunch sessions!This’ll be fun.
- Do you have any TTRPG books you’d like to donate to the Ecclesicon Auction? Funds raised are being split 75% to Booksmiles.org and 25% to my Church’s roof replacement fund (which is where we holding the convention). If so, reach out through the Ecclesicon Contact Page!
