This Week in Gaming 3/24/22

Oh man, Gary con is here, and due to a broken car, I am not running any games. I am really hoping that next year I can be there in person.

The In-person Ravnica game: Once again a broken car makes so I am not able to do what I need to do. It makes me mad I just spent 300 dollars getting the car running and one day on the way from home, I am pretty sure the timing belt broke. I think I have figured out the bus, so this coming Sunday I will be able to run this game.

The Patreon Ravnica game: This game is going just as slow as the other game. but I am hoping that in April we will be able to play on both Tuesdays that I don’t work. In order for that to happen, I am going to need some more goblins. https://www.patreon.com/user?u=14964776&fan_landing=true.

I just created a new character that you can get by becoming a Goblin Follower.

My Play by Post game. I am being punished by demons, I don’t know what is going to happen, but I am interested to see what happens.

I think that is all I have for this week, so until next time keep gaming.

This Gamers Goals #28

Guys we are going to hit 700 all-time blog posts this week. I think that is really cool.

This week I am promoting The Temple of Golden Nuts. The third adventure in The Final Dream I saga. https://www.lulu.com/en/us/shop/chantel-jones/adventure-module-ch3-the-temple-of-golden-nuts/paperback/product-k4zrgv.html?page=1&pageSize=4

If you are reading this blog, I would like to invite you to check out the Patreon and become a Goblin if you like what you see. This week there is going to be a lot of stuff for the Ravnica game and Wonderland. https://www.patreon.com/user?u=14964776&fan_landing=true

The goals last week, I think I did okay at working on what I needed to do.

The Goals this week. First the first three days this week, I need to be working on the Ravnica projects. I thought I was done with a smaller project, but I decided I need to make a stat block for someone. And lots of writing on the main adventure that I am working on.

The next three days are for Wonderland. I need to finish two more races for the Basic Rules, and need to finish the Gay Frogs and The Six. One of the days I will be working on the Map.

The last goal is to type every day for two hours on The Temple of Set.

Alright, my friends that is it for this week, so until next time keep gaming.

March Madness is Here!

Oh man when three of my favorite things come together, Role-playing Games, Basketball, and Dressing nice. It’s time for March Madness at The Swamp. Now we all know that March Madness is about Making Money, so I thought I would try to make myself and some of my friends some money. In The RPG Product Bracket.

This Week in Gaming 3/16/22

I don’t know what to write about this week. I have some planes that I am going to start working on when I am done with this blog, and I need to keep working on Wonderland for that is what I am working on today.

The In-person Ravnica game. This week the game did not happen, I had to stop somewhere on the way, and the Starter in my car died.

The Patreon Ravnica game. Did not happen, because the internet died.

It’s short, but I need to go email all my players for the Gary con games I am running next week. So until next time keep gaming.

The Adventures of Chantel 101: No this post is not about White Dogs with Black spots.

In truth, I don’t know what this blog is about. I was going to write about an encounter I had about 5e and Mindflayers, but I can’t find two of the books I wanted to talk about. So I will wait on that one.

Then I thought I would write about going to the Post office, that is always an adventure, but who really wants to read about that?

I spent most of the day working on Ravnica stuff, for both the projects I am working on. Now I am getting ready to do a Patreon post, and make a new character. That will also be a patreon post.

I am going to spend tomorrow working on Wonderland. and my This week in gaming blog because I work on Thursday.

Alright, I am off to get more work done, so until next time keep gaming.

This Gamers Goals #27

It’s time for a new week, but before we get into let’s talk about how last week went.

Last week one goal was to get The Temple of Set done. That goal has been reached, now it’s time to get it typed up and sent out. I will talk to my artist tomorrow about what I need.

The other goal last week was to work on the Ravnica game. I was able to work on the Ravnica adventure, but I am not sure that little work I did counts towards my goal so we will say I got that one half done.

This week I am 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

We are getting closer to the end of the month, I think for April I am going to have to rethink my monthly goals for patreon because 10 is way too high. I still need 9 goblins to reach the goal this month. https://www.patreon.com/user?u=14964776&fan_landing=true

Alright, what are the goals this week? Well, I need to type as much as I can on The Temple of Set and Mt. Kolob. So there is that.

It’s time to put as much attention as I can into working on the two Ravnica projects I have. I need to get Working for Krenko out in the Second Quarter. The little thing I am writing for one of the bars will come out when it does, but it’s just a little thing so I kind of want to get it out of the way. And then I need to start writing stuff for the Love Story adventure.

With the end of The Temple of Set, I can now start working more on the Wonderland setting. Right now I will just be working on writing, and reading the books that I need to read for each edition of the game. Then when I am done typing the last to Final Dream adventures I can work on the Wonderland Map when I am not at work.

I was thinking that I might do a version for Basic D&D using the Blue Homles rules, but I have not decided yet.

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

This Week in Gaming for the week of Super Mar10

I want to start with, I can’t remember if I have already shared that one of my games for Gary Con has sold out. I am super excited about that. The King’s Castel. https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/348661/The-Kings-Castle?affiliate_id=1559598

Side note, The King’s Castel is one of the first adventures I published 3 years ago, and it has only been shared two times of Drivethru. The GM’s day sale is still going on so you can get it, or any of the other 1e adventures for $8.50

Alright, now that we got that out of the way. Let’s get into the gaming.

The play by post game is going well, I thought I was trapped in a box, but I am not sure anymore, I think it’s just the demon that is messing with me.

The in-person Ravnica game took a week off, I did not feel like driving in the snow.

The online Ravnica game still has room for Three people, you can get into that game by joining the Patreon at the 20 dollar level. https://www.patreon.com/user?u=14964776&fan_landing=true

The Adventures of Chantel 100 What to Wear, What to Wear?

So I am in this discord server and I jump into the voice channel and hear someone talking about trying to figure out what to wear to Gary Con. Now he is going to Gary Con In Lake Geneva, and I am just playing games online, but I am glad I am not the only one that has the problem of trying to figure out what to wear.

Now one day when I was working at Dairy Queen someone asked me where would you wear a 200 Dollar Vampire Dress? The answer is simple really for 200 dollars I would wear that dress everywhere. Much like this one https://www.latexmagicbest.com/collections/latex-dress/products/latex-princess-dress?spm=..collection.collection_1.18&spm_prev=..page.header_1.1&variant=6762aa56-b265-4f2a-9885-d9daf923970c&fbclid=IwAR12k_NNNdOCCrUo8-BMj_UGSgp91Jq89Ib-2GN7nj3z3-m9A3x1KjcAwn8. If I had 300 dollars to waist I would wear this do Gary con for sure.

I just bought a new backless black dress that I might wear, or I might just go for the Snakeskin that I always go for. There is also still time, that I might just go buy four new outfits.

I like that idea, it might be time to go shopping again, it’s short but it’s a good adventure to reach 100 adventures on, so until next time my friends keep gaming.

This Gamers Goals #26

This week I am promoting The King’s Castle, there is a sale right now on Drivethru. https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/348661/The-Kings-Castle?affiliate_id=1559598 The sale goes until the 13th.

I have one new patron this month, so there are only 9 more to go to reach this month’s goals. https://www.patreon.com/user?u=14964776&fan_landing=true

I don’t think I did very good at my goals last week, I mean I got some writing done on The Temple of Set, but my goal was to finish it.

So I am going to finish this week, the Temple of Set, when I am done with this blog I have to write one part that I have to use my computer, and then I can get the rest of it done while I am at work.

I have one more frog that I need to write up, and then I can start working on The six, so the second goal this week is to work on The Gay Frogs of Wonderland and the Six.

I have a third goal, but I am sure you don’t want to hear about me working out so I think that is it for this week. So until next keep gaming.

The Helping Hand of Doom #3

I have not listened to the normal amount of Podcasts, because they don’t heal my soul like music does, but I still listen, and this month the Helping Hand of Doom is going to Promote Some.

I am going to start with The Kevin Long Show, now I produce this show so maybe it doesn’t count, but it gives me a reason to talk about my boys Carlos and David who have both been on the show. https://directory.libsyn.com/shows/view/id/kevinlongshow

David is a writer of the Basic D&D and you can find his stuff on Drivethru. https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse/pub/12971/Mothshade-Concepts?term=Moth

Carlos write 1e Greyhawk content, which is wonderful you can find his writing at https://www.caslentertainment.com/shop/dungeon-modules/3

I have just started listening to a new podcast called Wobblies and Wizards, He talks about a lot of good stuff. http://www.wobbliesandwizards.com/

Game Knight Heros is an amazing podcast that starts their story in The City of Free Port. one of the best adventures I have ever played. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/game-knight-heroes/id1552887060

I could not do a blog about promoting podcasts without telling you all about a Music adventure podcast by my buddy Jessie Jackson, called Set Lusting Bruce. https://setlustingbruce.libsyn.com/

My friends, it is time to get back to writing, so until next time keep gaming.
