Chatty's Vacations
Depending on how long you have been a reader here, you know that the biggest inside joke here is that whenever I say I’ll stop posting for some time (for whatever reason), it’s usually the best sign that I’m on the verge of starting a posting storm. No wonder I wrote 400 posts in one year.
I am however leaving on vacation next Thursday. I’ll be spending 5 days camping with the whole family (away from electricity and Wifi) and then I’ll have one day to prepare my baggage for Gen Con.
Until then, I still have to get ready for the convetion as I have the following to prepare:
- I have to read some Paizo Pathfinder Society material and I’ll DM an adventure a few times.
- I have to get ready to be a DM for the Ascension of the Drow
- I have to finish preping for my Drunken D&D game that I’ll run for my RPG blogger buddies Dave the Game, Bartoneus, Yax, Dante, Stupid Ranger, Vanir and Bob Younce
- We’ll find a way to chronicle all that craziness and letting you know about it.
- We have a few more details to work out for our GM-Fu: Session Prepping seminar on Saturday
- On top of that I’m participating in a RPG blogger panel on Saturday (thankfully no prep).
- I also have to make a 5th level D&D 4e character for Stupid Ranger’s Out of the Box madness on Sunday Morning
- I’ll also play in DNAPhil’s Iron Heroes game.
Damn, I’m already tired just thinking about all that.
So that means that I don’t plan to write anything serious/deep until I leave for camping. As for Gen Con, I’m not going there as a journalist. While I will have my laptop with me, I don’t plan to post about it while I’m there. I might still do it, but it’s not on my to do list.
Contrary to some other better organized bloggers I didn’t write articles in advance to be posted every day I’m gone nor did I seriously think to ask other bloggers to guest post here. (If someone wants to volunteer, email me at chattydm@chattydm.net, I’ll set you up with an account)
So here’s the deal, I invite all bloggers who read this blog to come and drop a comment here whenever they post a new article.
I’ll see you after Gen Con.
Vote for the Ennies

The Ennies is the Roleplaying equivalent of the Oscars.
All fans can vote for their favorites. I just voted and I encourage you to do so. You have until August 6th.
You can vote here.
Yes I submitted this site and I didn’t get nominated, my friend Yax did… (for which he will pay dearly in our Drunk D&D and Out of the Box Games).
Like a bitter candidate that took way to long to support his winning rival, I officially back Yax’s bid for Best fan product.
Also, please check out’s Commenter Tony Law’s Fire and Brimstone, it’s a set of rules for Lava for your favorite fantasy game It’s nominated too!
Hmmm, maybe I should use it on Dungeonmastering.com?
