Woo-hoo! We're on the main page today.

Buzz, this is good news.

Well, to stir interest in the thread, I will give a phrase that will give a clue to one encounter:

"Things that go bump in the night."

Woo-hoo! We're on the main page today.

You, sir, are a marketing genius!

You, sir, are a marketing genius!

Buzz also said he was going to contact some other sites. So, I will be ready for next Saturday.

For my players and potential players, expect an upload of the first hand out sometime Saturday.

Once the gamers are seated and we establish "favors" in the cell, I'll pass out the item cards representing the Green Box contents...

4e note: one of the things I like the most about the DMG is that there is a props and handouts section in addition to very practical advice on how to GM. Even if you have prior bias against D&D, at least check it out.

Here is the first handout for the Pearl of Storms, which tells players some of what their characters know.

So, we appear to be in the home stretch.

FYI, I've removed my Burning Wheel event from the roster and moved myself and guest into ekb's Dagon event.

JoeGKushner, you'll need to figure out where you want to go now.
