(see photo)I keep a binder with one of every stat card from each set, separated by sets. (see photo).  Extra cards are storred in a box somewhere.For fun I'll include photos of my book collection (I'm sorry if I'm being annoying.  I'm just a bit keen to share the photos).I'll also include a photo of my gaming set up.  Currently I'm running the World's Largest Dungeon.  I print out poster size maps of each level (minus the secrets) and get them laminated.  Then I pen over the maps with dry erase marker.  As the players advance I erase the corridors and rooms with an eraser (cheaper than a projector) <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />I also print out a mini map that has all the secrets on it that I keep notes on. (see photo).If I can't fit all the photos in one post, I'll separate them into multiple posts.Tell me what you think.Yours,Sam</blockquote>
