Since I actually posted today’s article yesterday morning, here’s a very short something about my non-RPG interests. Like a lot of tabletop RPG aficionados, I like geeky stuff. My favorites are about technology, vintage video games, movies, cool TV series and doing stuff with kids. So far my blog list for those is rather limited. […]
Mini-Prep: Just how little do you need to prep?
That title brings back memories of my Internship in a Molecular Biology lab, before DNA isolation became automated. Anyway, yesterday’s post took more creative juice than originally planned. Today I’ll keep it shorter and turn the keyboard over to you earlier on (Andy, your new year’s recommendations are simmering in my noggin’ and will be […]
Holy Green Giant Clay Golem!
This is a short mini-post just to showcase my latest D&D Miniature acquisitions. As I usually do, I buy 2 boosters of each and every D&D mini series they make. The latest one, Desert of Desolation is full of goodies for my future game sessions. Look a Bone Devil, a Spined Devil, a Fire elemental, […]
Mini-Trope: No, I won't let you tell me about your character…
A few weeks ago, I wrote a tongue-in-cheek post about tropish DMs. Tonight I felt like tackling the equivalent for players. Once again this is going to be a satirical post and not an actual critic on play style. As usual, if this offends you…. ah heck, it’s not like I’m shopping for new players… […]
Holiday Blog schedule, some Stats and Season's Wishes!
Yup, Christmas vacations are coming. I’m lucky to get a full week off work and I will enjoy it. On the blog side, I’ve adopted a temporary daily Mini-post (500 words or less) strategy since last weekend and I plan to maintain it up until January 2nd or so. Of course, I’ll drop by with […]
Mining Tropes for RPG Nuggets: Ice Ice Baby!
This morning, I posted about my Winter adventures on the forums here. That’s my car if you were wondering… after I dug it out! Shortly after, Omnius, who’s allergic to snow I’m told, wrote a good weather-themed post. Well all that snow and ice also inspired me to go dig in the TV tropes site […]
RPG Lessons from my kids: Never curb your enthusiasm!
Have you ever noticed that bloggers have a tendency to take whatever thing that happened in their life lately and write all the post of the following days about that very thing… Well I’m no exception… 🙂 I got the idea for this post while my 5 year-old son was very enthusiastically beating my Mii […]
Off Partying, Short break from Blogging
Tonight’s is my Christmas party. Being one of the only extroverted guys of our very geeky Genetics company, I’m also one of the party’s MCs. I’m leaving in 30 minutes to set up decorations and what not. So my online presence will be severely limited untill Saturday morning (I party tonight, and I recuperate tomorrow). […]
(Not so)Mini-Crunch: Killer Cyborg Ogre Ninja
When I opened the forums last weekend (come on, join us!), I created a ‘technical issues and complaints’ board. In order to fluff it up, I wrote that it was being manned by a smiling Killer Cyborg Ogre Ninja. Somehow this sparked enough interest for some readers ask to have it stated up. While I’ll […]
Mini-Links: Japanese Lupine Cubs
I’m sitting on a big announcement and I promised myself I’d only post it Sunday night. But my urge to post something is so strong! 🙂 So here’s a few more links for you to look at… not all RPG related. When a hobby becomes an incredible opportunity This morning in my morning newspaper, there […]
