    Gamehole Con 2025 Thread

    Ah okay. Sorry, just moved here last spring. Only attended for the first time last year. Don't know much about its history or the organizers. But it was a goldilocks convention for me. Just the right size. Before that I only went to Con of the North, which I love, but it is small. Before 2014...

    Gen Con Sold Out!

    Looks like there are at least a few ENworlders who will be at Gamehole Con this year. I hope things work out for you to go. With the housing portal opening this weekend, I thought it was a good time to start a thread on Gamehole Con: https://www.enworld.org/threads/gamehole-con-2025-thread.712345

    TTRPG Genres You Just Can't Get Into -and- Tell Me Why I'm Wrong About X Genre I Don't Like

    Yes, I love it when my failing memory can just be explained away by "well nobody knows for certain", "there are conflicting rumors", and the fact that it is more accurate that PCs would have a very limited, and often incorrect, understanding of history, wider politics, and distant cultures and...

    Gamehole Con 2025 Thread

    Sorry, but who is Alex? I generally don't attend 5e games, but I've not played with the new rules, so I might sign up for at least one. My main problem with adventurer's league has been that I'm always playing a 1st-level character because I don't regularly play in AL games. I love the AL...

    Anyone else hate the name "Gamehole" for a convention? :)

    Gamehole Con 2025 Thread

    I should know better than to use the word "finally" in a post. Another thing I am wondering about are the recorded live plays. I attended a couple sessions last year. Some of them were very entertaining, but almost nobody attended them. I realize that most of their audience will be those...

    Gamehole Con 2025 Thread

    For a serious post. Regarding housing, the hotels are all an easy walk to the con, some however require crossing very busy streets (very very busy during rush hours). If you have mobility issues, you can still drive and park and they are opening up a whole new parking lot this years, so...

    Gamehole Con 2025 Thread

    Thought I I would start a thread here in the hopes other ENworlders attend Gamehole Con to discuss the con. Since the housing portal opens soon, I thought I would start this thread by recommending that everyone take it easy, sleep in late on Sunday, and be ready to book your rooms Sunday...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Just ordered a pineapple pizza to be delivered to my family, while I'm in a different state. The above sentence is likely to be interpreted very differently by different participants in this thread. 1. So sad. You didn't get any of that pineapple pizza. 2. How nice of you to arrange a tasty...

    TTRPG Genres You Just Can't Get Into -and- Tell Me Why I'm Wrong About X Genre I Don't Like

    @Ruin Explorer and @el-remmen already covered in detail many of my feelings. I'll add that for me, personally, I can enjoy being a player in canon-heavy IP TTRPG. From my perspective as a player, it is no different than a GM who has a detailed world her or she created from scratch. Just let me...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Yep! Quite a few of us in rubber‑binder land. Although I now live a state over in the land of water bubblers, beer-cheese soup, and da turdy point buck.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Ah, you haven't experienced the joy of not having to pick up your stuff. Separate bathrooms are nice, but even having two sinks with ample counter space can make a huge difference. One thing I miss from living in Taiwan is because most people live in apartments and just don't have a lot of...

    TTRPG Genres You Just Can't Get Into -and- Tell Me Why I'm Wrong About X Genre I Don't Like

    Sounds like a fun read. In reality, it don't know that raptors would do all that much better against fire arms. I would probably want to do an alt‑history where there was a larger and more sustained attempt by early vikings to take territory in North America. Your "underhill" campaign sounds...

    D&D General When We Were Wizards: Review of the Completed Podcast!

    I taped that episode on VHS when it came out. It really did make a difference to have an avuncular spokesperson speaking common sense in response to the insanity of that time. In the When We Were Wizards podcast it was interesting how upset he was with how he felt set up and ambushed by 60...
