Bookscan tracks bookstore book sales. But the early sales were the hobby cover. Perhaps that's why the number seems so ridiculously low? (Someone must have already proposed that theory?)

I watch almost no TV, but I was on a trip to Spain, and for some reason this show was on permanent flow on one of the english language channels there. So we had that on in the background. He was a character, RIP.

Just got vol 1 of Delicious in Dungeon at the comic shop. Looking forward to it.

What do you think the impact will be for folks not in North America? Maybe that's what Queer Venger meant? Also, had not heard that ILWU was in bankruptcy. I used to live near LA Harbor - my area of Los angeles was literally called Harbor City - and had several longshoremen friends down there...

Just got back from a 110km bike ride. Beautiful countryside - coastal california. I do it every year, I probably posted last year...

3 times actually seems smaller than I would have thought, considering how many people are playing D&D in 2024 compared to 2014.

this is going to be a tough job, to come in at what could arguably be a high level - already mentioned 50th anniversary, museum etc etc and then expecting it to continue to increase, but those organic tailwinds will have softened considerably.

I would like them to reprint in paper. A set of fat volumes with 25 issues per set

It's quality may have led to higher sell-through, leading to earlier sell-out?

Final photo from the book sale, which ended Sunday. The one that got away was a book I saw early on Sunday - the Silverlock sequel, The Moon's Silver Eating Daughter by John Myers Myers that I said - "I can wait" - but it was gone at the end. Volunteers at the sale get to take home whatever...

Yes, that is a surprise. I would expect ItB to go up once the 2024 starter box set comes out

I would have assumed they'd let most of the adventures based on 2014 rules slowly but surely go out of print. "They'll be available forever [-ish] on D&D Beyond!" would be the semi-accurate tagline.

I am indeed familiar with Japan, however I am by far not a game writer/commentarian beyond what I natter on about here on ENW; I don't even play one on TV. That said... You have put an idea into my head, wherein I can go visit my family in Japan and write it all off against the huge PROFITS (cf...

Probably you have already seen this, but today's map reminds me of these 9th century architectural plans... (only known architectural drawings between the Roman Empire and the 13thC) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plan_of_Saint_Gall

Oh real life castles with secret passages. Feels like there's the kernel of an idea of an adventure that involves both court intrigue and finding something in the under-castle. Hmmmm Also, I didn't realize Corfu was on the Ionian side, not the Aegean side.

You were probably meaning to direct this to @talien, author of these pieces. But yes, exactly what you wrote - local setting, real life cultural traditions and landscapes.

Also - Tim have you ever done any maps of a dungeon where a landslide has exposed some of the levels to the air?
