Hi everyone, I just looked down the forum, and half the threads here are about GM's Day sales, so I thought I just say how great it is that so many of the web publishers have gotten behind GM's Day, and helped turn it from a nice idea, into a something real legs to it. I really hope that it...

Happy GM's day, Mark :)

Thanks Wulf. I already have my copy of Grim Tales sitting in front of me. This will make a fine addiition to my collection. Thanks again Mike

To all our great GM's out there - thanks so much for all your hard work and effort over the last year. You Rock! And for those of you whose players don't don't know about GM's day, allow us to thank you on their behalf. Happy GM's Day!! :) :) :) And Rob, Matt (for that faerie vignette...

Thanks Matt (and don't worry about missing out) While your GM's day pressie was great, such thanks are more than anyone could ask for in a GM's Day gift.

What a fantastic moment - and what a thoughtful gift for your GM.

I've never actually played in any of these games. Can you go to war in these virtual worlds? Could you invade this guy? Mike

Probably. ;) Besides, they would have spent that over years and years of gaming They have too much money, too! I'm not really having a go at him. If he's happy, great. If he's doing it as an investment, though - do you remember the dot-com boom and bust? Where everyone invested in things...

Gamer buys $26,500 virtual land A 22-year-old gamer has spent $26,500 (£13,700) on an island that exists only in a computer role-playing game He either has way too much money on his hands or he is a very canny investor (but I'm betting my dollars on the former.) Amazing.

All GM's deserve an award on this day, but let mention Rob J. who has run a game week in/week out for our group for the past couple of years now, worthy in of itself of an award, particularly given the amount of prep work he does between sessions. His pace took a little getting used to at...

We have those in our campaigns. We call them The Game Mechanics :p

I'll second the Toughpick's Guide to Fantasyland as a must buy classic written by a woman very well versed in the Genre. The Evil Overlord List is an also an oldie but a goodie, and documents the top 100 mistakes made by villains in movies and fantasy.

Of course, if they had played with a scout before, they'd be whining about something else... GM: The party stands outside the front of the dungeon. What do you do?" Rest of the Party: We ready our weapons and prepare to go in. Scout: Hang on guys. Let me just pop in for a moment and...

Superstitious? Moi? When I started role playing (or is that roll playing) I had a solid red coloured D20 that rolled ridiculously well. I called it my "holy die" (he was a paladin - I was young) I would pull it out for the big rolls, solemnly and with intent and intone "20" and roll it. It...

Sure, and like Valentines Day, Mother's Day etc, GM's Day doesn't have to be comercialised if you don't want it to be. I was saying this from word go. You can always make them a dinner, or a pretty card, or run a game for them for once! First and foremost it's about saying thanks to the GM, and...

Hmm - he does have a big head, doesn't he?! :p

We should make use of the nifty arithmetic progression of the dates 03-04-05

Your Tuesday group, huh? I'm guessing that means Glassjaw runs a game for you every Tuesday. For a whole year? It also kinda implies that he runs a different group on another night! Please allow me to hustle on his behalf. He deserves it! ;)

Well, it could be a bit like Christmas, couldn't it! we celebrate GM's Day and recognize our GM the rest of the time by buying them dinner and munchies. All they have to do is run the game! :) That said we all work full time, so the cost is far less less than that of the time our GM's devotes...

We had that problem last year so we bought ourselves a battlemap. It gets used every session, no matter who is GMing, and has been a great investment. I just got myself an early GM's Day Gift. "Everybody else" - a guide to everyday NPC's with stat blocks and so on. Hopefully it will save me...
