You run a gaming blog?
Chances are, I don’t know about it. I’m looking for some good gaming blogs to add to my reading lists (which is heavily slanted in technology and business startups). Anyone want to send me some link love?
The usual fare
I don’t remember where I got this but it always made me think about the perfect stag do. It’s originally from the first edition Dungeon Master’s Guide and really proves that, to a degree, roleplayers of the day were ugly virgins. I listened to an early episode of feartheboot on the way into work this…
I am Legend, alternative ending
The alternative ending to “I am Legend” was posted on FirstShowing.net. Ironically, it restores the meaning of I Am Legend though Neville’s ending is different. It would have made a better movie ending for sure.
‘Culture Games’
Back last year we wrote a ‘popular’ post about the top 10 roleplaying games of all time. In the post, I did explain my preference for culture games but also lacked to really talk about the concept. In thinking about it on the way to work this morning (driving is relative downtime), I figured it…
E. Gary Gygax is dead.
I just heard and checked it out on the recently edited wikipedia page (kinda morbid no?) He died aged 69. He said he had an inoperable abdominal aortic aneurysm. A lot of people are very shocked. I never met the guy but I read a few of his books and despite him being the butt…
Prepping for a game
I’m a little intimidated by running a new game. I’d like to run (and by all accounts the guys would like me to run) Godlike. Something about giving it to the Boche really motivates them and it’s be nice to play a game where we have an easily defined baddie. Among other things this will…
RQ: Black Rock Epilogue
For two days they plodded in silence, each lost in their own reverie, as they considered the days which had gone before. For most it had been their first encounter with Chaos, their previous duties being the maintenance of law and order or shows of strength when a bandit party approached the town. This was…
Creative Laryngitis?

Jesus appears to dog owner
via JohnBraine++ The Lord moves in mysterious ways. And it’d look kinda funny when the dog poops moves in a less mysterious way.
I Am Legend
I’ve read the book and watched both Omega Man and the recent Will Smith adaptation. I am looking forward to the March 18th release of the DVD, if only for the alternative ending. Both deviate from the novel wildly but the later adaptation actually annoys me more. In the epilogue narration, the words “and this…
