Do you have a website for your campaign?

I keep all of my campaign notes in a very handy little tool called Treepad which is like a combination of a note pad and a file structure. It can also export out to a webpage quite nicely meaning that updating is almost no effort beyond keeping my own notes up to date.

Yes, I have a campaign site. However, since my Macintosh broke about three weeks ago, I haven't updated it since.

I include background info, some handouts, a link to the Story Hour, house rules, info on PCs and NPCs, whatever seems important.

Why did you decide to make a website for your campaign?
What type of content do you include on your site?
Do you mind posting a link? I always like to stea...umm, I mean look at what people have created.

I played in a game once a month that had a campaign site, and I found it incredibly useful -- it was a great way to remember what had happened at the last month, and to stay immersed in the game between sessions. Since I was starting up a game that would also meet once a month, I figured I'd go the same route.

Initially, I put up journals/Story Hours of the sessions, summaries of what happened in each session, the PCs, notes on NPCs, house rules, character creation guidelines, and other info. As the game progressed, it's expanded to include artwork, photos, setting info, PC journals and other stuff. Oddly enough, the most-used element turned out to be current versions of the PCs -- if someone forgets their sheet or can't show up, we print one off and we're ready to go.

One of my ideas was to make as much of it player-supplied content as possible -- journals, art, and other things earn you bonus XP in the game every time they're done. This lets me update the site without having to do all the work, and gets the players more involved. Some of them enjoy it, others don't want to do it (which is fine -- it's optional!), and overall it's been a reasonably successful idea.

I always find that if I don't drive myself to update, it doesn't happen. That's not always easy.

Yes. My web site is at http://members.cox.net/~robrien78/adguild/ and the message board is at http://p197.ezboard.com/bfolkofthefringe. Of course, I haven't actually started running the game, but that is a mere formality.
