Yeah, I actually work in a pretty rpg-friendly environment at this point in life. Many of the folks around me are newer players, most not having had the chance to explore farther than DnD 5e. But, as an example, today at lunch I happened upon a copy of Gods of Metal: Ragnarock and bought it. During a break I invited a guy to drop by my desk and give it a gander. His response after seeing it, "If you GM it, let me know, I'll play." So, yeah, pretty normal where I am and I am glad for it 🙂

Speaking of finding neat new systems, don't forget to build and submit your own for the 24 Hour RPG Contest going on now! 🤘

I had to cancel due to no sleep due to a bout of mania.

with the right people, The One Ring (1st Edition), Og (Unearthed Edition), or Sentinel Comics: The Roleplaying Game

My eldest is headed to college soon, and taking my The One Ring (2nd Edition) stuff with him. Who are 'the right people'? What does a good gaming group for TOR look like, and what characteristics are you looking for on that one? I think that could be valuable to him as he looks for a game group.

my criteria are 1e specific; the 2e changes require different tastes.
-- Players need to be willing to narrate their traits into auto successes. §
-- They need to creatively use traits.
-- They need to be willing to roll before spending and accept that sometimes, even hope won't help. §
-- need to be willing to use social conflict mechanics
-- They need to be willing to play with metacurrency.
-- They need to be familiar with The Hobbit and LotR novels. Movies are a bonus, but the books are the core.
-- They need to not be Silmarilion fixated. (I never finished reading it.) ¤
-- They need to be willing to deviate from canon.
-- need to be Team Player types.
-- need to not be freaked out by breaking out in song. ¤

I have been struggling with Wind and Truth (Stormlight Archive) for the longest time. I like this series a lot, but I'd sort of lost track of a lot of the characters so I kept switching to other books. Then somehow my Kindle decided I had finished it so I have lost my place a couple of times. It does not help that the whole book bounces back and forth in time between a giant battle and a bunch of flashbacks in the world's history. So it can make it hard to find my place again. Currently about 82% finished.

Other books read in the meantime:
Royal Gambit (The Chequy Files) ...fun paranormal agent stuff
When the Moon Hits Your Eye - John Scalzi ...amusing but such a silly premise
A Short History of England - Simon Jenkins
Unruly: The Ridiculous History of England's Kings and Queens - David Mitchell

I feel like I might have forgotten to log one or two.

Moon Hits Your Eye was a good light read. I’m looking forward to Monsters of Ohio later this year.

A question suggested by [user=pestigor][/user]


Can you openly discuss your role playing hobby at work without negative consequences (eg. from “funny looks” to “no longer up for that promotion”)?

at my extremely part time for my. FLGS, it's expected.
At my last real job... Elementary school teacher, not around the students. Tho if they broach the subject, in moderation.

Started a reread of House Atredies.
