My cheeks hurt and it's only day one of @oobfest.bsky.social

FYI I’m especially keen these days to talk to: - folks who were at the D&D Live events 2017-19 - AP creators pre-2010(ish) - AP creators who do/have done charity events - any game designer or AP creator with Shakespearean or pre-1800 projects (existing or any stage of development)

Keep your eyes on it. Make backup plans early

I'm off to have the best four nights ever watching lots of improv at @oobfest.bsky.social

So far majority love session 0s, and it's pretty split on who prefers to watch/listen before or after the series. Really love all of these responses, and I got some I hadn't thought of!

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

MITCHELLS VS THE MACHINES 2 MORE CURSED FURBY PLEASE

How about a little crash out. As a treat

Here's an interesting question for people who like APs. Do you watch/listen to the session 0 if provided? Do you do so first before getting into the episodes, or do you like to dig in retroactively?

Here We GO! Come along, my dearies! www.kickstarter.com/projects/lum...

Evening crew, here’s your bedtime reading blog post.

Go on quests. Slay dragons. gilarpgs.itch.io/dragon-slayers

Me when you send me scary Actual Plays

Sometimes you need to date yourself. Got myself a new book and conveyor belt sushi

You don't realize how many cool old photos you end up finding while trying to put together a legitimate portfolio again. Anyway, if you are curious. I need to spend some time reaching out to old colleagues because I am missing a lot of photos. cierapandaportfolio.carrd.co

Time for another press release tip! Please just write it as dry as possible outside of quotes. It's incredibly fun seeing it written like you're weaving some epic tales but I can't use that tone for a news item.

Hey look at this cool thing that's happening. If you find you can't travel to PAX U, this con is run by some cool people (and me)

VOID 1680 AM was the game the changed the face of Tales Yet Told and helped us understand just what kind of stories we wanted to tell. An amazing game about community, self-reflection, and sick tunes. #ttrpg #actualplay Check out the trailer of 2048 AM Voices in the Wood: youtu.be/YNKTtnFNMRo

I voted. It's what hot people do.

Wrapping up the Dice Exploder series on actual play with a game where, to me, actual play functions almost as a game mechanic: @kenlowery.bsky.social talks Void 1680 AM community broadcasts, and how even just the idea of putting your solo gameplay in front of an audience changes how it feels to play

i'd love to personally invite any MTG creators that are going to #PAXUnplugged this year for a really cool fun thing... so if you are one or know someone that is going, please lemme know so i can slide into their DMs and brew up something fun 👀

🤖 @sciwithrach.bsky.social is Jessie, an Archiver Android well beyond her warranty. She is a robotic contraption of emotion and metal in Mothership: Whistle in the Dark... OUT NOW! 🔗 pod.link/1844222273

TOMORROW! We're back on our game design chaos & we've somehow convinced @brennanrtaylor.bsky.social, cofounder of @ipr.bsky.social, to join us on this chaotic ride!!! Tues, Nov 4 @ 6pm PT, tune in twitch.tv/gnome_anne as we design and playtest a #ttrg in just 90 mins!!

I miss nuance. We should call her

Still thinking about this series

Listen, I may have had a *special* drink, but if someone gives me the money to start a gaming tavern and recording studio I will hide dicks all over the decor. Anyways goodnight today was brutal and tomorrow will be worse weeeee

Hello! Do I have any BIPOC RPG Game Designers that would perhaps be interested in being at the RPG Designer Meet & Greet from 11AM-12PM at #PAXU? Please feel free to tag ppl! Happy to connect folx

Thanks to the hard work of @ragepandapajamas.bsky.social et al: conventionzero.carrd.co Our launching pad for the con has all the information you might be looking for, including staff info, links to the event host sign up sheet and eventually, to the discord server and warhorn for game signups.

Also go fucking vote tomorrow or else I will be in the walls and I won't shower

Its hell week at work soooooo if you aren't hearming much for me, it's because I'm working 10 hour days

Officially going to run a game of Mothership at @thesecretlantern.bsky.social Now I just need to prep and get over my nerves!!

I wonder how others percieve online? Do I seem like I'm full of it? Intimidating? Silly goose? Clueless? Three pandas in a trenchcoat?

My schedule for PAX U is filling up quick! I'm so very excited

Here is the first draft to my brief guide to the digital preservation of Actual Play, from a digital archives perspective, targetted at AP producers. allmyfriendsarestories.neocities.org/posts/2025-1... I say "brief guide" but, you know, I'm me.

Interesting discussion happening on Discord, but I think there is a realization that many people hear the word "performance" and assume it means acting. But in Actual Play, it seems more people equate performance with the ability to tell stories.

I heard from a few books that hungry people are scary to politicians.

Apologies for the technical difficulties the past few days, but the glitch has been fixed!

More of you need to watch @mozzarelle.bsky.social's Solo APs series. It's clever, it's personal, it's art. www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

There's something more to Zeyvah, played by @im-squid.bsky.social, than anyone realizes. But just what that is you'll have to tune in and watch! Support the show and help us rebuild Saving Throw! store.savingthrowshow.com

Ya'll remember Tales from the Crypt? This is the AP version. I'm loving it. (Narrative heavy, great sound design, and ambient noise) The way the audience is "pulled in" is poetry (you'll get it when you hear it)

Y'all want a dusty post-apocalypse full of horrors of an eldritch character? We've got you covered This Waste & Wild preview features the Godslinger class, a Ranger & a Bard subclass, magic items, & several monsters. All compatible w/ ToV and 5e Have fun! unbalancedencounters.com/members/post...

🩸Is it too early for some Trick or Treating?🩸 Well, too bad! Check out the trailer for our new monster-hunting, vampire knight mini-series: Blood in the Snow. Coming Halloween 2025! #ttrpg #halloween #actualplay #audiofiction

We had: - Video issues - Audio issues - A website outage - An outage of the site hosting a great review of the show But the premiere ran smoothly and was a fitting launch for an incredible ship. I’m very proud.

New art asset pack for October! A set of stained glass illustrations available in both raster and vector. oddsandents.itch.io/stained-glas... Timecode: 10:17 pm EDT

If playing Tabletop Roleplay has taught me anything, it's that you need to keep an eye on the silly ones.

Friends of the show @uepodca.st are dropping their new campaign, The Misfortunate 4, today! Tune in! www.youtube.com/live/Ac5YF1u...
