This Gamers Goals #24

Wow, so according to WordPress for 3 years now. I have only been doing blogs and trying to make the site work for me for a year.

I got all my games resigned up for Gary Con. I wasn’t going to do it because of work, but I still have 470 hours after this week so I can’t be hired until May so I said nope I am doing the con, I don’t think I will get any sales from it, but I have to try. Because as much as I like my job, it’s not what I want to do forever. Now I just need to figure out what I am going to wear.Al

This week I am promoting my Final Dream Bundle. https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/361392/The-Final-Dream-I-BUNDLE?affiliate_id=1559598. On Tuesday I have going to have a deal that if you buy any one of the PoD’s in the bundle you will get the bundle free.

There is going to be a lot of content coming out on Patreon this week. https://www.patreon.com/user?u=14964776&fan_landing=true

Alright, so about this week’s goals. I need to map out the final level of The Temple of Zeus. But I need to finish some monsters for level 3, I will finish the one I need tomorrow and then finish the level and then start mapping level 4.

I also need to make sure I am promoting the Final Dream Bundle every day this week even on the days I work.

I really need to make sure I write This week in Gaming Blog on Wednesday before I go back to work.

That is it, so until next time keep gaming.

This Gamers Goals #23

How did I do on last week’s goals? I think we will call it 50/50, I did not get done with the level of The Temple of Set that I wanted to, but I have spent a day and a half working on the Ravnica adventure.

I really need to get done with the Temple of Set. I got a Facebook memory from a year ago, about working on the Basement level of this adventure. So I have been working on it for a year and I still have a level and a half to do.

This week I will be promoting The Temple of Zeus https://www.lulu.com/en/us/shop/chantel-jones/adventure-module-ch2-the-temple-of-zeus/paperback/product-nn89nz.html?page=1&pageSize=4. I am going to try and remember Two for Tuesday this week.

Alright so let’s get to this week’s goals. Alright with 31 days out of the way I can spend all three of my breaks at work, working on the Temple of Set, and on Saturday I can spend the whole day working on this project. I really need to get done with level three this week, I have a lot of Monsters that I am going to have to write. I really only need one of the Gay Frogs, but I figure I better write all of them at one time.

I was supposed to start my in-person Ravnica on the 13th but my wife decided that we are going to my aunt’s house for the family Super Bowl party. So I guess I get one more week to get more writing done. I need to finish the first mission in this time.

There are other things I need to do like getting my business entity renewed and set up my wife’s business and getting our taxes done.

That is it for this week, so until next time keep gaming.

The Helping Hand of Doom #2

This one is going to be short because even before my new job sucked the life out of me, I don’t really watch a lot of Twitch tv. But there are four people I try to watch and I think you would enjoy them too.

My boy Carlos is everywhere with his D&D and Greyhawk, when he is not writing his next cool adventure he is running his next cool adventure for all of us to see. https://www.twitch.tv/caslentertainment

While we are on the Subject of Greyhawk, Lord Gosumba has the most Greyhawk content with like 10 shows a week. Okay it’s not really 10 but it’s a lot and he runs the Virtual Greyhawk con every year. https://www.twitch.tv/lordgosumba

Lord Gosumba was the one that introduced me to the next two people on one of his monthly super shows. The first is Darling Creep Show. Darling does two D&D streams and a lot of other stuff like her Wednesday show to relax after a day of work. https://www.twitch.tv/darlingcreepshow. It was Darling that was the inspiration for a new Maic item on the patreon. https://www.patreon.com/user?u=14964776&fan_landing=true

The last is Littlebones https://www.patreon.com/user?u=14964776&fan_landing=true she also does a lot of different shows but they are all fun.

Alright, go watch some t.v. and until next time keep gaming.

The Adventures of Chantel #97 or For The Love of The Game.

As I write this Please understand that I support that we are redefining some things in our lives. I just wish two of those things would be what it means to be a sell-out or teaching our kids that it is 100% okay to be a sell-out and second what For the Love of the Game Means.

John Stockton one of the Greatest point Guards of all time did what he did because of The love of the Game, and he was happy. Karl Malone who I will only talk about this one time also did what he did because he loved the game, and yeah he was a sell-out he went to the Lakers because he wanted a Ring, and if not for blowing out his knee he would have gotten it.

I use to think that I wanted to Sell-out and would give up my writing to go work at WotC. Now I just want to be a Sell-out by doing my writing. It’s okay to be a Sell-out that is kind of the go of the goal of writers on band members or sportsballers. to make a living doing what you are doing.

So why is it that in the world of Role Playing games everything should be done in the name of The Love of the Game and why is it that means somehow everything should be free useless you are WotC or Pazio or whatever other big-name gaming company people are supporting.

Now sometimes I will fight the idea of Pro-Dming or paying to play. There is a game store in my area that made it sound like they were charging to play Adventure league and that is 100% everything not what Al is about even though to play AL you have to pay to get into cons.

Put most of the time I support Pro DM’s people need to be able to eat, and if this is how people want to pay the bills then good for them. If you don’t want to do it or play in a pay to play game, that is also 100% but Please stop with the For the Love of the game crap, there is more than one way to love the game and, just because we don’t love it the same way doesn’t me we are making it less pure.

Alright, I have said my peace so until next time Keep Gaming.

This Week In Gaming 2/3/2022

When I write my Sunday Blog I always share what I am promoting for the week, but I wonder about putting in a plug for that item in my Weeking gaming posts. https://www.lulu.com/en/us/shop/chantel-jones/ch1-the-kings-castle/paperback/product-7dg5y4.html?page=1&pageSize=4

The Discord game: The Discord game that I am soloing in from one of the patreons I support is going amazing I might get killed by a demon, we will see what happens. There is a link to Marcus patreon page in my blog post about the Helping Hand of Doom.

Ravnica in Person: There is one more week before the in-person Ravnica game starts and I have only seen two Characters, I hope this means that the others are going to make theirs on we meet, and I am 100% all for that.

Alright There is my week in Gaming, I am off to work on The Temple of Set, so until next time keep gaming.

This Gamers Goals #22

I know that I could go read the last post so I could remember what my goals were last week, but I am tired I need to get to bed because I work in the morning, and I am pretty sure the goals last week were to work on the Temple of Set, that one is a win as much as I could at work and with 31 days of Character creation.

The second goal was to spend one of my Days off working on the Ravnica game. That one I failed at. And the last goal was to get two patrons, that one was also a bust. I also did not even come close to getting 10 patrons this month.

This week I am going to share The King’s Castle as much as I can. https://www.lulu.com/en/us/shop/chantel-jones/ch1-the-kings-castle/paperback/product-7dg5y4.html?page=1&pageSize=4

The monthly goal for February is still going to be 10 patrons, I have not learned my lesson yet. https://www.patreon.com/user?u=14964776&fan_landing=true but I am going to work on getting two this week.

There is only one more day left of Character Creation, and then it’s full steam ahead on the Temple of Set, I am going to push hard, even with spending a full day working on Ravnica I should be able to finish this level this week.

That is it, so until next time keep gaming.

The Adventures of Chantel #96 The Helping Hand

I feel like the title of this blog should end with either of Doom or of God. But anyway it’s no secret that as a businesswoman I want all the moneies and to take over the world one game store at a time.

But I can’t just sell my writings in my game stores so It’s time to share some of my friends with you. Now if you are new to the blog, I will always share with you the good of Casl Ent and Mothsade concepts. so let’s start there.

Casl has a website https://www.caslentertainment.com/shop/dungeon-modules/3 He also has a patron that is going to be changing, but it’s still going to be good. https://www.patreon.com/caslEntertainment/posts

Mothshade hangs out on Drivethru. https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse/pub/12971/Mothshade-Concepts He also has a patreon, but maybe I will share it at some point this year, I really hope so but it’s not really open right now.

Next for this month of the Helping hand, Marcus is also someone I follow on Patreon, and he has started doing Play by Post games, and the one I am in is amazing. https://www.patreon.com/dhaise/posts

I started this blog a little late, so the last group this month is Four Horsemen Publishing. https://fallonspaag.itch.io/?fbclid=IwAR0QQJKyy7itYkkkrgaDt9Z8dt73vEduYGrKULEzjBVPy36k7iwDO3Nnhfg

Aright that feels good I hope that you check them out and maybe support some of them, but until next time keep gaming.

This Gamers Goals #21

I did not reach my goals last week, work takes way more out of me than I thought it would. I am getting my 31 days of Character Creation done, but then only get one room on the Temple of Set done at work.

This week we are Promoting C&C with The House of Lilly. https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/298933/The-House-of-Lilly?affiliate_id=155959

I still have hope that I might be able to get 10 Goblins to join the ranks https://www.patreon.com/user?u=14964776&fan_landing=true

Alright, so what about the rest of the stuff? First I have two days of no work so I am going to push out as much of The Temple of Set. I will spend most of the day on Monday writing while I wait to meet someone.

This week is Ravnica week, I need to get a lot done on Wednesday, my test play game starts in a couple of weeks.

I also need to do a post for my friends that do creative stuff, I am going to do that on Monday I hope.

Alright, I think that is it for this week, so until next time keep gaming.

This Gamers Goals #20

Last week due to sickness I did not set any goals, so I guess I got 100% on whatever I did. This week I am back, and there is a lot to do.

This week I am promoting The Final Dream Bundle. https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/361392/The-Final-Dream-I-BUNDLE?affiliate_id=1559598. I am thinking that the Two for Tuesday will be that if you buy the Bundle, I will give you Castle Roan, then you can get all for 1e adventures for 25 dollars.

One of the goals this week is to get done with level 3 of the Temple of Set. I have done 4 and 1/2 rooms out of 53, so I think this is something I can do.

This week I work on Friday, so I will be working on Wonderland on Wednesday. I want to start adding lakes and rivers to the map.

I know it was a far reach, when I set the goal to get 10 patrons this month and every month this year, but they say go big or go home, and well as much as I like being home, I thought I would go big. That being said now that we are already 16 days into the month, I think this week my goal is to just get two goblins to join the army. https://www.patreon.com/user?u=14964776&fan_landing=true

Alright, I think that is it for this week so until next time keep gaming.

The Adventures of Chantel #95

Between being sick and work I missed a This Gamers Goals and a This week in gaming, but here I am for a new Adventure.

31 days of Character Creation is going along. I have three more classes to do in OSRIC, and then I will do two characters for Gold and Glory. I am thinking one of them will be a Barbarian, and maybe the other one will be a Ranger. You can see all of them for Free on the Patreon. https://www.patreon.com/user?u=14964776&fan_landing=true

Today I need to be working on the Ravnica Game, but I am not sure how much I am going to get done I have to help with my wife’s business today.

It’s short but I have stuff to do, so until next time keep gaming.
