This is a joke, but it's also not a million miles from a project I've been considering...
First idiot, Second idiot, Third idiot, Stig
While it's true that their real names were pretty ridiculous, most of the Drones acquired even more ridiculous nicknames (Bingo, Tuppy, Gussie, Oofy).
It's happening!

I'll be there with the fam for the first time. Fingers crossed for the day...
Anyone know if #Dragonmeet will include a board game play test area or Indie TTRPGs on the Hour?

One of the strengths of KPDH has been how little it explains around its mythology and backstory. It left a huge fertile void for fan theories without having to engage with the more complicated questions it raises.
Joy from the movie Inside Out weepa as she cradles some of Riley's forgotten memories
Inside Out just hits differently once you've had kids. All I'm saying.
Delighted to discover another person tracking ttrpg crowdfunding. If anyone knows if they are on this site please tag them so I can follow them.

I'm probably not your intended audience as I find audio and video APs pretty dull. Give me a written AP (preferably including footnotes from the players as to their thoughts at the time) and I am so there! I did a few myself before, this is an example www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/3...
What am I getting with all the daylight I've saved?
With my luck, probably sunburn.
I went to the first Pirates of the Caribbean when it was first out in the theatres. When the movie title/rating card came up, someone in the audience made the pirate AAAARRRR noise.
That was acceptable.
Also, Sanguinius should not be marked as Least Concern IMHO
With three young children, the idea of international travel is completely foreign to me.
Looking for recommendations for business card sized ttrpgs suitable for kids. All guidance appreciated!
Dice? GMs? These sound like dangerously modern inventions to me!
IIRC the Smart Party coined the pithy phrase on this topic "you want the chat to go around the wheel because that's where the rubber hits the road!"
I'm just going to say "Super Nashwan" and let others recall the terror at facing them.
Power is the rock on which truth founders. The mainstream media, with a few exceptions, is a single-issue lobby group, whose purpose is to assert the rights of capital.
Here's what I've learnt about the industry in 40 years in journalism.

Apparently the only way to organise a gaming convention is for folk to put in the work to prepare games in advance and then hope to hell that people will want to play them.
How do you feel about html?
Who is it a call to arms against? Or is it just a general 'stand back and stand by'?
...we created a 'playset' that I then took & developed into Anarktika which was my first credit. I used the same rules to create a GoT version which I never released but had a good game of once. I also used it as the basis for a generic One Shot Story Game Generator which I was proud of at the time.
Probably Love in the Time of SeiΓ° by Matthijs Holter and @jmstar.bsky.social
Pretty early on in my time in indie ttrpgs, I was inspired by a Fiasco playstorm to do the same for SeiΓ° (which then got named SeiΓ°storm). It was not well-attended, but...
If it's pronounced Korfs are their cannon balls called Korfballs?
The earliest dedicated journalling game I recall of the more recent period is The Beast rpggeek.com/rpgitem/2001...
Heavy metal? That's like Tubular Bells right?
