Obsidian Portal

Using your Obsidian Portal campaign forum is an excellent way to do this, as it's available for everyone to see, all players get an email, and nobody accidentally forgets to hit reply-to-all.

You can get all kinds of planning done between games which makes it easier for the GM to plan the next adventure since they already know what the players' first steps will be.

This is very interesting. How will they appear on the front page?

We're still working out the design details, but it will probably be a short teaser on the homepage with a link to the full article.

I'm sure I misspelled something in there...

It's good advertising I guess.

I am going to call him Game from now on. Thanks for that.

My intent was and is still to communicate my hope that "how famous you are" isn't one of the deciding factors, when there are so many great sites that don't have 70+ cross-over fans to know about them already.... Read More

Being recognized for your hard work is nice for everyone, but especially so when you have done a better job at what are said to be the criteria and don't happen to have an ready-made fan-base.

I'm saying this having found your site from the original news post Mike made on Penny Arcade, mind you.

Mouse Guard looks cool. I haven't tried playing it yet though. The pictures remind me a bit of the book series Redwall (which is pretty fun to read). Maybe I'll get to play it at Neoncon this year.
