Risus is a great little game.

Risus is a great little game. You can play a fun little beer and pretzel game, or play a more serious sort of adventure. The rules are 6 pages long, and they are written in a certain tongue in cheek way, but Risus can be anything you want it to be.

So, our Friday One-Shot calendar is taking a hiatus for November and December. It will be back in January. In the meantime, I will be running four sessions of Mouse Guard during those two months. The dates will be 11.08, 11.15, 12.06, and 12.13. Only the 11.08 game will be made into a public Event. After that, attendees of the first game will get private invites for the remaining three sessions.
For those of you who aren’t aware, Mouse Guard runs on a simplified version of Luke Crane’s Burning Wheel system. The game is superb. The setting is extremely cool, too (you play ranger mice). If you have never read the comics, you should definitely check them out.
I’m taking a glance at my calendar, and it appears I am GM’ing all four of my games this week.

I don’t know if this has been done already, but I think it would be neat to make a story game which lampooned the anti-D&D hysteria of the 1980’s. I’m thinking of a game where your characters use a fictional fantasy RPG to bring innocents to the Dark Lord. Basically, a sort of meta-RPG that evoked the Dark Dungeons comics (or just the general Satanic Panic of the time period).

Ok everyone, I need your help!
Ok everyone, I need your help! I am working on starting a stream on Twitch.tv that is going to be completely dedicated to RPG content. Playing RPGs, reviewing RPGs, interviewing guests involved with RPGs, etc. In a few weeks we are going to kickoff with a Call Of Cthulhu one-shot. After that we have a two regular games planned, a Pathfinder campaign that I will be running and a Star Wars: Saga Edition campaign that will be run by a friend of mine.
In between the regular games I would like to feature some lesser known games as one-shots. That’s where I would like your help. What games do you think would work well in this kind of setting? We will all be on webcam and have Roll20 available for maps, music, etc. Games that I am already considering are Fiasco, The Quiet Year, Ribbon Drive, and My Life with Master. Any others that are recommended and would work well in this format?
I’ve been trying to make it out to one of the many awesome games being played by The Gauntlet members but haven’t had much luck with scheduling conflicts. Hopefully I will drop in soon and meet some of you. I am enjoying this community a lot.
If the stream sounds interesting, you can subscribe via Twitch (for free) and you can opt to receive e-mail notifications whenever we go live. You can also watch videos of the broadcasts shortly after they are done airing. I will be putting them on my youtube channel as well.
Here’s a question I’ve been meaning to ask.
Here’s a question I’ve been meaning to ask. Would any of you consider running or playing in an online game via Hangouts/Roll20/etc? I’m looking for as many opinions here as possible. I really think this is an interesting topic for discussion.

The lines still need sharpening up, coloring cleaned up, and text added but this is a good start I think. Thoughts?
I love Amazon Prime.
I love Amazon Prime. I ordered the Call of Cthulhu 6th edition RPG last night and according to FedEx tracking it arrived in Houston at 530 am this morning. I hope to find some players who are ready to die in the most horrific ways possible.
