“No, you hang up.”

Today on the Chaosium blog I remember when I called Cthulhu.

What a great drive around the Bay, Ben, thanks for sharing! I have very fond memories of you at your desk at 950-A in the 1990s, talking about Blood Brothers and Mansions of Madness.

Seen in the Wild! @katclay.com's The Well of All Fear is an ENNIE award-winning Regency Cthulhu scenario set in the spa town of Buxton 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿. And, as fellow Miskatonic Repository creator S.R. Sellens discovered, you can get Kat's scenario in the Buxton Spring Gift Shop!

I remember when I was in grade school and we got to draw and write stories by hand and even glue and bind our own book covers. That experience helped me realize I love telling stories and those stories were full of a childlike wonder and joy that AI can never capture.

Dear Chat GPT:

Text from The Magic Encyclopedia V2: "Since 1974, TSR's policies and the talents of its staff and freelance authors have matured significantly. Many of the items listed in both volumes of the Magic Encyclopedia contain references that would not be considered acceptable by the standards we set today. References to items, however, are included for the sake of completeness "Likewise, TSR, Inc. has produced many products under license over the years. While no licensed material is included within these pages, these licensed products do appear in the products list to make it complete."

There was a lot of rending of garments when Wizards of the Coast put up a legacy warning on their classic DTRPG products, saying times had changed since the original products were produced.

But, here's TSR's own legacy warning from the 1993 Magic Encyclopedia V2.

20 GP on the Dagger game! (But great analysis)

~Tonight in What We Do In The Shadowsdark~
Dwarf: So we can get a crowbar made of STEEL?
Thief: What did you think they were made of?
Dwarf: Bone. Feathers.
Thief: *frowning*
Sage: I've studied Dwarven for some time. It is, sadly, a very literal language.

Here’s looking at you, West.

Hilarious night watching Re-Animator on a comfy couch at the Star Cinema Eaglehawk. I’ve seen it before so did not need to hide behind said couch.

There’s not a single bookie in Wildemount who’ll take a bet against this being Daggerheart…

My map of Britain won the silver award for Best Cartography 🎉🥈Thank you for voting and congratulations to all the winners!🥳

I really loved getting back to them after a few years away. Worth a try; running games is a top way to test.

Table Tales: 'I love a gaming convention' It’s Gen Con weekend, and the Chaosium crew are greeting old friends and making new ones at the main booth (511 in the exhibit hall), and in the Chaosium event room across the hall (ICC139). Games are...

I had a Non Gen Con this weekend, but lived it vicariously through home gaming and the fantastic photos from friends at the show. It all made me think about how much I love a gaming convention.

Outstanding! I thought Hiw To Train Your Dragon might be there when I heard it as the promo music for Screen Sounds in an ABC Classics roundup…!

CLOWN LAW

"Who hired this clown?"
"Don't laugh. He's never lost a case."

Gavels meet Greasepaint, 9 pm Thursdays on ABC.

Oh no!

Land of ❄️ and 🔥 awaits!

Bloody hell, Charlie! I’m glad they made you tough. Boo hiss to entitled drivers, they’re rushing rushing rushing to and from the inescapable hell of their own irritable lives.

Curation is the only way to stay afloat, in my opinion. I’d rather see everything from a selection rather than never catch up; same on Twitter, before I fled.

Corner!

Or Fullmetal Alchemist…

Outstanding sessions, a joy to play with you Cam. That viking saga was the perfect con ending.

Utter nonsense; a guilty pleasure. Soundtrack goes hard though, always on repeat.
