Scheduling Thread for the IRON DM 2020 Tournament!

If you’re talking spin-offs, you should do an EN World search for “Ceramic DM” and “Iron NPC” to see if anything inspires. Ceramic DM, in particular, was pretty popular for a while.

I tried Ceramic DM once and FAILED. I never looked back.

I either missed or have totally forgotten IRON NPC, but I love the idea of it - and think I'd be good at it (unless stat block are required )

BTW, I am trying to quickly save and clean up IRON DM 2002 as the model/prototype for archiving and stumbling upon a 4043 word entry from Rune I need to re-format!

Of course, if allowed to I bet I'd easily surpass that every time (much to my detriment, I am sure)

Just wait until you get to the adventure that inspired the word count limit

My hope is that by then there will be a team of IRON SMITHS helping me to shape all this into a presentable format.

I found it, and it actually wasn't as bad as I thought. Only 5,786 words.

I could be wrong and I'll check when I get to it, but I have a memory of writing a 6000+ word one in the early days when I moved from judging to competing.

I'll workshop it for a while; we've got at least a good five months before summer officially hits. If anyone is interested in helping me with the design of it, hit me up through DM

I am definitely interested in doing something and am brainstorming through some ideas myself. I will send you a message when I have them more concrete (or alternately you can do the same).

I have a google drive folder set up with docs for each round's entries for the IRON DM 2002 (which has a special IRON DM OF ENWORLD bonus round where the winner played the previous winner head to head at the end). They are not 100% cleaned up yet, because the format for each is different and I'd like to decide on a universal format for each entry (or as close to universal as we can, for example I made sure to make all the ones without titles have an "Untitled" header) before going through and editing it.

Maybe it makes most sense to dump all the text in google docs with minimal cleaning, that way we have access to all the varying formats to see if there is one or more we want to adopt across all of them.

Anyway, if anyone is interested in looking at the first set of docs, DM me with an email address and I will share it with you through google.

You think that’s something? I wrote a couple of books in one of incognito’s tourneys. Otherwise, pretty decent entries, though.
