Weekly Geekly 4

There was a great post I found on Dungeons and Dragons prep from GeekDad. The most useful thing about the article was the pointer to Trello a website that works like a whiteboard/index card layout.

I am a bit scatterbrained when it comes to software and tools. But Trello looks like it will be a solid addition to keeping track of things for the Blog, my current campaigns and other personal projects.

I love my cool refillable pen inks. This brand is a lot of fun to use.

I also ran across the website http://www.paperbackswap.com where you ship used books to others who want to read those books that don't fit on your shelves anymore.

Which reminds me to look up plans to build some new bookshelves.

Weekly Geekly 3

So 12 days of 8-12 hours a day at work will mess up the schedule.

I really like the Sakura pigment set of pens. I would love to get a set like this. But at 100+ at Jet Pens it is unlikely to be something I get.

Weekly Geekly 2

So here we are at week two of my recently weekly wanderings.

Dungeonesque: a cool indigo campaign using the new Open Gaming License for
Dungeons and Dragons. It would be awesome to have several copies for new players as it is always hard to have enough players handbooks.

Recent Wanderings 1

So I will be posting a series of recent wanderings articles all about recent geeky things. I plan to do this weekly.

And this is why I stop blogging

So I started blogging again and now I haven't posted in quite a while. For this reason, I have a good long post not done and I keep agonizing over it. So I think I have to compete it before the next post. Well I will get there, but it most likely be three posts and a video when I am done.

Additionally I was working on Holiday stuff for family, had a trip to the ER, and completed my entry for Santicore. Not in that order.
Secret Santicore is an Online RPG themed Secret Santa

So here is what is next. Time to go over blog content. My expectations are to blog about geeky things, as I am a geek. This will include: DIY, RPG, Books, Kids, Shows etc. Lately there has been a lot of RPG, but that is due to a creative burst in that area and finally getting a gaming group going.

Generally I will try at least a post a week that summaries what I find elsewhere on the web that I find interesting. As well as focused posts on things I geek out about.

Megadungeon the Holidelve


So I have enough layers with my last post and this to allow for all the adventuring needs for a while.





The plan is to have enough here for at least a few long sessions. It should be, I hope we can have multiple sessions between Thanksgiving weekend, Christmas Week, and New Years. 

Just to make the players less squishy, we are starting at 3rd level in 5th edition. Hopefully they don't die right away. I will post some information on what goes on the layers, but after they have been played through.

Megadungeon for the holidays

So I hope to run a bit of a one off dungeon crawl, perhaps making it an annual event in a megadungeon of my creation.

I have a messy overview map and started on some of the levels. So as to not reveal spoilers for the Day after Thanksgiving dungeon crawl, I will keep no notations, but here are the maps I have so far.

The upper left is a burial site. The next four are layers around a central mining shaft.

The upper left is the ruins of a wizards tower, then its basement and caves. Then some other caves deeper down. The Right side is a vertical dungeon for flying creatures that have many niches in the shafts.

More to come.
