    The Peasants Have A New Sport

    Poking it with a spear would be illegal. Tickling it with a feather would be sport.

    James May's Road Trip

    Episode two was good. But I wonder if James May knew he was performing chaptalization when he added sugar to his grape must. And, why didn't Oz say something about it? I certainly don't see how anyone could expect, except through precise measurement, how you'd get "wine" in just 5 days. Did...

    Picture of the Week: Take that, foul servants of Blibdoolpoolp (in honor of J Roslof)

    I'll never forget my first time, penetrating Blipdoolpoolp's secret cavern and enjoying every moment of it. But you gotta wonder, why don't she have lobster headed offspring worshipping her? Or lobster men. Or giant intelligent lobsters.

    Advice for running a con game

    Do I get to play? You should do a practice run. Yeah. My suggestion, completely unfounded in practical experience, do the 4 or 5 room dungeon thing. 2 or 3 fights is probably good for the 5 room dungeon ploy. Don't worry about TPK's. Have a bank of characters ready. In fact, why not make...

    The Who, What, Where, When, Why of Weapons!

    In my mind, I read that as, "you forgot hoe" which is much funnier said aloud.

    PCs and the gimmie gimmie's

    Well, you could use the situation to entertain yourself. This seems like a good opportunity to create new but useless magic items. Or litter the treasure with crap like wands of cure minor wounds and potions of read magic. For example: Jimmy's Fruit Loaf(ers). This footwear must be worn in...

    James May's Road Trip

    Yeah, I agree. Of course, being a BBC show there are only like 6 episodes.

    ...you have a dream that you are taking someone to the hospital and the doctor will only accept payment in dice. And the the doctor is Dr. Gene Scott.

    Top Gear

    I have managed to watch parts of most of 4 or 5 of the American Top Gear shows. Two of the hosts are alright. The pudgy guy with the beard and the middle guy who looks kinda like Apollo from BSG are ok. It is the 3rd guy from Jersey or from New York or wherever that screws up the chemistry...

    Dark Dungeons: This stuff is crazy

    Technically RJ called it a 'restro-clone' not a retro clone. I'm wondering if that is something of a restored, yet modified clone. Maybe that's why it is all crazy?

    Dungeons & Dragons Does Not Exist: Meditations on Brand Dilution

    I was going to reply with the simple statement that you should follow up the invitation with the question, "What version of DnD?" which I suspect many of us would naturally ask, but then I said never mind.

    Mouse Guard love....

    Correct as far as I understand. FATE is a good system I can understand and enjoy. The system crafted in Burning Wheel, whatever it is supposed to be, was modified for Mouse Guard.

    Ah yeah. Another reason Lisa was a better choice.

    Dungeons & Dragons: The Book of Vile Darkness (2011)

    I know everyone has different levels of what counts as vile but I think that was a horrible choice of iconic artifact.

    The important thing is whether or not the rules lawyer uses their power for good or evil.

    Board Game Dayz

    Every Tuesday, nearly year round except holidays or really really rainy days, we gather at a local coffee shop and play games. Usually Eurogames, but sometimes party games like Telestrations are played. From this we branch off once in a while and hold a game day on the weekend, like New Years...
