But our numbers are small and TSR has AN ARMY! eyeroll

Agreed. Luke's been doing of good job of honoring the history of D&D while also being welcoming, kind and generous. I also know that because of his job (he's a Lt. Col. with the U.S. Army), he has to watch what he posts on social media. He's good people.

Yes, I did mean damage control. I'll fix that post.

They've had nearly a decade to build a memorial from the Gygax Memorial Fund (to which my wife and I contributed at Gary Con more than once) and there's still NOTHING. It's fraud and mismanagement all the way down with Luke Gygax trying to do damage control, but even he's exasperated at the...

Re: balloon-riding dragon-kin

The National Writer's Union accepts work-for-hire writers, contract writers, and self-published authors. I doubt most RPG freelancers realize that there is a union they can join right now (and join the Freelance Solidarity Project in the process). I didn't even find out about them until today...

Carpet cleaning sounds like it's petty, but when it's SEVEN years of built-up dust, dirt, and God knows what else has been tracked in from outside (and remember, this is the Pacific NW, where there's rain, snow, road deicing chemical, pollen, etc), to the point where it's triggering asthma...

Started with Moldvay/Mentzer D&D and branched out from there pretty early. Nowadays, my group has played multi-session games of D&D, Blades in the Dark, FFG's Star Wars, Deadlines (via Savage Worlds), and one-shots of even more systems.

I believe Strongheart also appeared in the D&D cartoon. I want to say Warduke did, too, but that's probably just wishful thinking because that was a long time ago and I haven't watched the entire series in a long, long time.

So, which community is next on nuT$R's hit list? I'm no expert, but systemically insulting every marginalized group in the world seems to be a poor marketing strategy.

Hm. Maybe I'm not the only one that reported the tweets referencing school shootings and "stop before someone gets hurt."

If they still own the logos that TSR3 is using, they'll need to step in to defend their ownership of them (and Star Frontiers if they have any interest in keeping that IP). But, it's a big company and this all blew up over the weekend. I expect IF they do anything, it will be a few days yet...

It funded Sept. 2, 2015 and was slated for delivery the following year (backer #165 here). Ernie's final comment to his backers is dated March 21, 2019: NO AMOUNT OF OUTSIDE ENERGY WILL SPEED THIS UP "As of this time the whole project status is waiting for Benoist to complete the writing of the...

Did someone give these guys a new shovel and tell them they'll get paid as long as they keep digging?

Gygaxian Prose is filled with metaphor and that's how Ernie writes and speaks, even in casual Facebook comments.

In every interaction I've ever had with Ernie, he's been super nice, polite, and just a genial fellow. But we all know that doesn't neccessarily translate into business acumen.

Look, I can't speak for Ernie. I know his brother Luke much better, and I wouldn't claim to speak for him, either. All I can say what my perceptions of the situation are. And it seems to me we have a person who is jealous of all the people who have parlayed their love of his father's game into a...

It's never been an issue at my tables, either. But then, there is a big difference between sexism and racism by NPCs in the narrative and sexism and racism codified in the rules.

Another day, another fire. I'm reminded his last update to the Marmoreal Tomb Kickstarter (back in March 2019) before Troll Lords took it over to save it: NO AMOUNT OF OUTSIDE ENERGY WILL SPEED THIS UP As of this time the whole project status is waiting for Benoist to complete the writing of...

My attempts to generate discussion about the matter in our Facebook group utterly failed, so I guess we'll talk about it during the remote game on Friday. Maybe they can put to rest the mystery of who killed the administrator of Trinity Station, too, and secure a Tibanna gas mine for the New...
