Summary for the week ending Nov 5, 2017

Here’s a summary of activity for the week ending November 5th, 2017.

Streaming and recording were still SNAFU this last week, but I’m getting back to it. Also, it’s getting really dark and cold up here. I’ve been running the wood stove and sleeping under a cat blanket, yes, a blanket of cats; a portable fur cloak. It’s a wonderful thing.

Still didn’t get to record that new Ghost Mountain series I’ve been wanting to start, but Roll for Effort now has a second playtest if you want to check that or the first one out for an idea of what that Weird West setting will be like. And, hopefully, I’ll get enough preparation done to someday actually start the series!

In other news, I decided to re-publish the Odd Order page on Facebook. Gawd I hate Fb. But, there it is, like a wart on a toad’s ass. If it gets some people interested in the blog and streams, that’s all I’m hoping for from it. Love it or hate it, Fb has captured a huge portion of the overall referral traffic. Ugh. Deal with the devil, is what it is. Either way, I’m mainly on the blog, Twitter, the voice and chat Discord server. But, I brought the Fb page back for those that are there.

The World of Greyhawk by Gary Gygax, Fantasy World Setting, Approved for use with Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Fantasy Adventure Game, from TSR Games, circa 1980, with portfolio illustrated with heraldry, gazetteer, miniatures advert, and two huge map sections, which detail part of Oerth #game #tabletop #accessories #map #cartography #greyhawk #dnd #tsr #roleplaying #worldbuilding
