A few weeks ago, I got a nice email from a reader, full of praise and constructive feedback (I love those!) and in the mail there were a few questions. I thought I’d respond to it in post form and maybe encourage people to send more questions at chattydm@chattydm.net. If it catches on, it may […]
House Cleaning
I’m enjoying my time off by mostly lounging around and taking it easy. I am also tinkering with the blog a bit to make it more useful for readers. That’s why I moved the Recent Comments to the top of the primary sidebar. I’m also finding that my blogroll is stretching beyond what I’d like […]
(Really)Mini-Post: A GM’s Authority
I took two days off from work today and tomorrow and that somewhat includes blogging (unless I get an inspiration like I just did now). I’m currently writing a guest post for another RPG site and while I was editing my work, I added this small sentence: It’s one thing to have a rule book […]
Chatty on 4e: Retro-Stupid vs… well Retro-Stupid
This is the second in an series of articles where I tackle 2 short subjects on 4e from a DM’s perspective and ask for your thoughts. The 1st one can be found here. While I was reading stuff on D&D 4e on the various blogs, news sites and the Worlds and Monsters book (which I […]
How’s my health? Much Better
Much like a nasty kidney stone, my work-related milestone passed (with resounding success). As you may have noticed, my posting schedule has recovered and actual RPG related postings have started creeping back in the content. (Sprinkled with non gaming stuff… chances are this will stay like that). I’m much better. After 3 full weeks of […]
Pathfinder #7 Preview: Curse of the Crimson Throne #1
I’m having issues with uploading images to the blog’s server. That’s why this one actually points to Paizo’s site… I’m going to take a different approach with this series of review. While I’ll still list what’s in the adventure, I’ll add more of a review element to it. Paizo started publishing their own 3.5 OGL […]
Mobile Phones in Cars
I only have one blog and I need to rant about something totally unrelated to RPGs… but somewhat geeky… so feel free to move on or add some oil on the fire. On April 1st, a new law (for real, not as an April Fool’s) passed in Quebec that strictly forbids the use of hand-held […]
Pathfinder Preview: Curse of the Crimsom Throne Player’s Guide
I got a nice, very red, surprise in the mail yesterday. It was Paizo’s Pathfinder #7, the 1st adventure of the series’ second Adventure Path, along with a copy of the player’s guide. Since I got the guide this time, I thought I’d preview it first and then tackle the adventure tomorrow. The Curse of […]
DM Chronicles, Session 14: You Wanted Planescape? You Got It!
This is part of a long running series that chronicles my current D&D campaign set in an adapted version of Ptolus. Oh yeah… I’m not actually quitting.. While it is a lot of work, I’m still having fun here. Last game I played a rather badly designed plot exposition scene that left our enjoyment of […]
It’s time to move on…
I think many of you saw the signs in the last few days… longer periods between posts, a few personal posts about blogging vs real life and general funkyness. Well after thinking about it long and hard, I’ve decided that it’s time I moved on to more productive things. So I’m going to start writing […]
