Tonight at ChaosiumCon UK, I single-handedly solved the problem of ordering cream and jam on scones. You’re welcome, British people!
The Stochastic Game
Ramblings of General Geekery
ChaosiumCon is almost finished! And I’m very happy that my last game was the very fun Credo! by Chris Gidlow… coming soon!
Day 2 of ChaosiumCon UK starts! It’s great to see so many faces I had only seen online previously. British grognards love hugging! Plus: loot! Including a wonderfully horrible gift!
Heheheheheh: The Unreal Way
Mac users: “the macOS window management is superior!”
Me, opening Expose once every few weeks and discovering half a dozen stray windows and popups.
Take that, you Lunar scum! A drawing by me for an unpublished #Glorantha #TTRPG campaign book.
I’m going to ChaosiumCon UK this weekend and I somehow managed to book awesome games I would have a hard time finding elsewhere: Ringworld, Elfquest, Lords of the Middle Sea, Rivers of London, 13th Age Glorantha, and a RuneQuest Tournament! #TTRPG
Some Notes on Mausritter
Mausritter is a TTRPG in which you play little adventuring mice trying to survive in a world of big dangers. If you’re a fan of the excellent comicbook Mouse Guard, you should already be hooked! The system is as minimalist as its protagonists, with low-prep two-hours adventures, so we played this a dozen times as an “interlude game”: the sort of game you play when a key player is missing, or in between campaign arcs. I also played this several times with TTRPG newbies, with up to 8 players! Here are my notes on Mausritter!
I cannot understate how shitty the Apple TV remote is, compared to the Roku remote. It’s as if Apple went for the cool factor rather than usability. It’s like a car dashboard designed entirely of touch screens. Ugh.
I finally started listening to the Dark Adventure Radio Theatre audiobooks I got from the HPLHS a while back and they’re really well done!
