Okay, so I'm finally getting a chance to read through some of the Free RPG Day swag. I've only got a few of the books I picked up with me, so I'm gonna go through them. Generally from Free RPG Days materials, I expect a few things. I want it to give me a taste for the game, flavour and mechanics both. Generally, I expect a sample adventure, with a few pre-gen characters. I don't mind if the system...

Courtesy of thebitterguy comes this headline. No need to actually read the article... Wrestling midgets killed by fake hookers .

Just got in (well, 20 minutes ago) from an evening with thebitterguy and his wife. We ( vampyrehunterm and myself) went over to their place this afternoon, and thence on to the Genghis Khan Mongolian Grill at 900 Don Mills Road in North York. We like eating there because it's all-you-can-eat and we can easily eat paleo by choosing the right stuff in our "Mongolian BBQ", which is neither...

Spotted via thebitterguy 's Twitterfeed is the Vader garter , perfect for all you Star Wars fans who actually "get some". All three of you.

Well, this weekend is Transformers Con, a fan run celebration of Autobots and Decepticons, will be held at the Doubletree hotel on Dixon. It looks like a very cozy show, and will have a dealer's room as well as some guests, including voice actor Dan Gilvezan (Bumblebee/Slipstream/Peter Parker). They're having a game night tonight, which I can only assume must include the Transformers Risk game. Good...

We’ve been breaking down the dramatic and procedural beats of Hamlet for a while now, and my simple system of mapping them seems to be holding up reasonably well. Let’s try mapping out an RPG session and see what happens. A recent session of the Thursday night D&D game began with a possible PC vs. PC showdown. The previous week, the trickster-worshiping dragonborn Shoryu ( chryx ) played...

Happy Easter to all of you that celebrate it. I don't celebrate it religiously (that is, as a religious event), but I do enjoy the familyness... however, for me, Easter is _next_ weekend, the awesomeness that is Greek Easter, and so this weekend I didn't do much different than what I normally do, and so this is a fairly normal update. So, today I finished Fallout 3. Mildly fun, althoguh I was somehow...

I totally forgot to tell you the good news: Gero - the elderly Dalmatian, who I´ve mentioned every now and then - finally found a new home. So it was sucessful having him on T.V. two weeks ago. (Leverkusen pet shelter was featured on "Tiere suchen ein Zuhause" and had a focus on older dogs or dogs that have already spent a long time in the shelter) Í´m glad that the old chap doesn´t have to live...
