Has anyone else found that they've stopped getting notifications from this community? I checked my settings, and nothing has changed, and I still get notifiications from other communities, even though I only ever post here.

Any advice?

Hey, just giving a quick note - I'm still alive, just been busy with NaNoWriMo so blog posting is a little bit slow over on Gnome Against the World but I haven't forgotten my Solo stuff.

Guys, got a long, unimportant reunion in a while. I'll be there for about 4 hours so, any recommendations for solo rpgs that can be played "stealthily" in meetings?

Something quite a bit different from me today, but “everything is content” 😉 I was at the first of a 3 day weekend at the London Comic Con, my first in London and only my 2nd ever. Today was the ‘warm up’ but I’m throwing some notes down for myself &…

Guys, I have Mad Monks of Kwantoom and Ruins of the Undercity. I played them some months ago using Labyrinth Lord and I want to play them again!

However, this time I want a ruleset that makes me run this fast, as LL can be quite "rolley". Which OSR systems would you recommend for this?

Also if none of you has grabbed either of these, do it. Kwantoom specially holds a place in my heart.

I was listening to the "One Shot" podcast the other day and they were playing a game called: "Fu**! It's Dracula!" which is a 200 Word RPG. I had never heard of 200 Word RPGs, so I went to One Shot website and found the link to the 200 Word RPG Challenge website. Holy Shamoley! There are the winners and finalists to the challenge for every year since 2015, which comes out to around 200 games. If you go there, the Dracula one is the 7th one down in the right hand column of this year's finalists. I downloaded it and I realized that it would be easy enought to reskin it for just about any type of game you want. Another free resource most of us, and possibly inspiration for the game designers out there.

If you've wanted a physical copy of The Clay That Woke for your collection now is the time.

I'm moving soon across the country, and my little 3' x 4' storage locker is jammed with copies of The Clay That Woke, mailing and packaging supplies, and printing supplies for other projects, and I need to seriously reduce it. Please help me out. I'm putting physical copies of The Clay That Woke on sale at a super reduced price of $14.99.

If I can sell 150 copies in the next ten or twelve days it would cut my storage space of books and mailing supplies by almost half and the money would really help with the (shockingly expensive) moving costs.

Thank you. Please reshare wherever you talk with gamers who might be interested.

I recommend this game. Like GURPS this is a Universal Roleplaying System. You pick relevant traits for your genre.

The full strength, wisdom, dexterity charisma
Or just Physical Mental Social
Or just Fight and Defend.

Hey, all! Im newish to the group, and im sorry if this was posted elsewhere, but are there any dnd5e adventures that i could run a brand new player through? I'm introducing a buddy to the game, but for the past 2 months, havent been able to get at minimum another player for phandelver or whatever. Thanks in advanced.

Perhaps this sounds familiar. You want.to work out so you buy expensive exercise equipment but it doesn't affect your habits.

You want to make art so you buy art supplies but they pile up. You become a collector of fancy pens and quality paper.

I buy books and read them, especially everything for dungeon generation and solo play. Sometimes I actually achieve a moment of play.
I'm encouraged and inspired to see people slap some dice around and make a game happen.
Use it or lose it.

Ok, Roleplayers! Info request that might be slightly off-topic. A friend of mine has suggested a PBM game but I have NO idea how to run such a game. Does anyone know of a good how-to resource for running a tabletop RPG PBM?

For an even SMALLER adventure.

1: one piece of graph paper

2: Fold in half, bringing the long edges together

3: Fold in half again, bringing the short edges together

4: Fold the top layer in half, back to the "spine"

5: Repeat for the bottom layer

6: Counting the front and back pages, you now have a six page booklet

And when it's full, unfold it to step one, reversing the first fold and continue as instructed. There upon you may continue the adventure, or begin anew.
