Hi Jason

Hi Jason

Hi Jason

As one of the countless lurkers I am just dropping by to say thank you. Your podcast has really inspired me to check out new games. I remember that you ones described how the faces of hardened grognards in your DW game lit up when they realized that they could do all kinds of awesome shit. I have been playing an old fantasy heart-breaker for ages with a couple of friends and saw the same expression when I ran the first session of DW for them a couple of weeks ago. Now that they have seen the endless possibilities, I picture us playing some weird Nordic Larp in the future … Thanks to the Gauntlet and your passion.

BLEEARGGH!

BLEEARGGH!

BLEEARGGH! There is so much to do this week! I have to write questions for next week’s podcast interview, put the finishing touches on Thursday’s Monster of the Week mystery, write a scenario for Graham W’s Cthulhu Dark, re-read Matthijs Holter’s Society of Dreamers, do a thing for my Three Wicked Kings Dungeon World scenario…

But there is no complaining in The Gauntlet! (violently slaps self) There is only COPE (the Culture of Precision and Execution)! #HailSatan

“What a magnificent roleplaying game community this is! The breadth and depth of your conversation is of a scale so positively epic, it makes one’s heart sing with delight. And what a beautiful Share button this is! Have you ever seen a Share button so vividly green as this one? I should think not!”

Originally shared by Bundle of Holding

Through Sunday, November 1 we resurrect the October 2013 Bundle of Nerves, our original collection of indie horror tabletop RPGs. This revival, the first in our annual “October Horrors” series of offers, is a prologue and companion to the all-new Bundle of Nerves +3 that launches tomorrow (or maybe Thursday morning if we can’t get our act together). Both Nerves offers will run in parallel through the end of October.

The Bundle of Nerves presents a wide selection of indie RPGs with scares of many kinds, from Kafkaesque psychological terror to slasher flicks. For just US$6.95 you get all five titles in our Starter Collection (retail value $25.50) as DRM-free .PDF ebooks:

Don’t Rest Your Head (Evil Hat Productions, retail $5): The classic indie RPG by Fred Hicks of insomniacs with superpowers, fighting exhaustion and madness to stay awake for just one more night in the Mad City.

Dread (Impossible Dream, retail $3): The suspense RPG that uses a Jenga tower.

Kingdom of Nothing (Galileo Games, retail $7.50): The people who lost everything and slipped through the cracks into the Forgotten Places, where the Nothing manifests their fears as twisted monsters.

Murderous Ghosts and Murderous Ghosts: Northampton State Hospital (Trauma Games, retail $5 each): Vincent Baker’s cutthroat two-player RPG of cat-and-mouse pursuit. The Northampton State Hospital version debuted in this offer.

And if you pay more than the threshold (average) price, which is set at $14.95 to start, you’ll level up and also get our entire Bonus Collection with six more titles (retail value $56:)

The Demolished Ones (Rite Publishing, retail $13): Brian Engard’s Victorian noir, steampunk, Lovecraftian horror, murder-mystery, quest-for-identity, Fate-based adventure.

Don’t Lose Your Mind (Evil Hat Productions, retail $10) and Don’t Read This Book (retail $5): Twenty-six new Madness Talents for Don’t Rest Your Head, plus 13 forbidden tales from the Mad City edited by Chuck Wendig.

The Final Girl (Gas Mask Games, retail $8): Bret Gillan’s fast, low-prep game of slasher-flick action. The Final Girl is sold exclusively in this offer and nowhere else.

Ocean (Atarashi Games, retail $10): Jake Richmond’s GM-less survival/mystery story game set in an abandoned underwater research station.

Spookybeans (Chapter 13 Press, retail $10): A morbidly funny comic-book world in the goth vein of Charles Addams and Tim Burton.

Are you nervous yet? Get the Bundle of Nerves before this resurrection spell expires Sunday, November 1. And stay tuned tomorrow (or maybe Thursday) for the all-new Bundle of Nerves +3!

A brief discussion about something I have heard Jason Cordova​ talk about with regards to why people play terrible games. This way one can send a simple link to explain one’s position instead of lowering oneself to talk to the unwashed masses.

During this morning’s return to Dungeon World, the party managed to find one of my favorite magic items, the Bountiful Butter Box. This particular incarnation of this incredibly stupid item has a few extra requirements, as detailed on the inscription inside the lid:

““Sing a verse of buttery joy,

then dance your buttery jig,

and your buttery box will never be empty,

you happy, buttery pig!”
