    Boston Gameday on May 21, 2011 - sign up for games on Fri 3/18 at 7pm EST

    We'll still be basking in the afterglow of DC Gameday. We'll hardly notice.

    So, what RPGS are awesome from IPR?

    I own all of these (and have GM'd four of them), and would second Crothian's recommendation. Dread, especially, ought to be on every gamer's shelf.

    Anima Beyond Fantasy

    Gorgeous book. Passable translation. Needlessly byzantine mechanics.

    Why is it so difficult to find good groups?

    Not really surprising. Gaming is a social activity, so finding a gaming group has the initial hurdle of finding new friends (or at least people you can enjoy hanging out with). That's an issue that most people find daunting when their social situation changes because of...

    GenCon housing is open!

    The 'real' suite? No, that was Rel, Nar, Trill, JC and Seonaid last time. Although word has it that we'll have *two* suites this year... I'm just in a 'regular' suite. Kid Cthulhu or Quartermoon going to be there this year?

    GenCon housing is open!

    Huh, I used Chrome and had no problems. Got my room in the Embassy with the cool kids.

    I'll be running another unofficial "GenCon Noobs" game for those attending their first GenCon.

    The biggest issue with the new Character Builder:

    The Windows based version doesn't stop working when they decide to push hotfix on a live system, either.

    New Character Builder from WotC!

    Careful with the 'pirates' name calling there, skippy. Some of us have no problem paying for what we use. I was in a 4e campaign for around a year. Played an eladrin rogue. So for my $10/month, I got use out of the PHB (which I'd bought in hardcover) and a small fraction of Martial Power...

    New Character Builder from WotC!

    They diddled around and never got the CB updated with Dark Sun (and now we know why), so if you want it (which, since we're starting up a DS game, I kinda did) in the CB, the new online-version is the only way you'll get it.

    New Character Builder from WotC!

    Bad analogy. Steam doesn't charge you a monthly fee to access content you paid for, and WotC isn't selling you the character generator, only access to it.

    New Character Builder from WotC!

    So long as it's not a Dark Sun game.

    New Character Builder from WotC!

    So they just went from getting a little bit of money from me a few times a year to getting no money from me at all. No way am I paying a monthly sub for access to new material I'm likely not using, and holding my characters hostage in the meantime. I'm not surprised -- they should have done it...

    [Dread] Jenga beat up my dice! My results from the indie horror RPG.

    The denouement of that game is quite possibly my favorite RPG experience.

    Group Dinner - Saturday Night

    IIRC the fee for the room was exorbitant -- in the $1000 range. And if they lose their lease, it's a moot point anyway.

    Saturday AM: Alma Mater (Dresden Files) (Full -- Accepting Alts)

    D'oh. Didn't see this until just now. I do have a plethora of bookmarks, though, from when I pre-ordered the books. As I take great pleasure in reminding madwabbit. It went well, I think. I ran the same game at Boston Gameday last weekend, and it went pretty much the same. It takes a while...

    DC Gameday VII -- October 9th and 10th, 2010

    Thanks to all our GM and attendees for making this the biggest DC Gameday ever. If you've got to be a victim, being a victim of your own success is the way to go. Special thanks to all the out of towners -- when people are willing to spend money on airfare or endure hours in the car to come...
