The Adventures of Chantel #40

So last time I talked a little about not being able to track the number of blogs that I have posted here on the new site, and I figured out how to see those, So This will be the 14th post here, and I have done 563 all time.

So I did not get a Super Beat Down Sunday, Things did not go the way they were supposed to at all on Sunday, and by the time I was able to play any Magic it would have been after midnight before I could write the blog. I think next week I will go play in person.

This week is hopefully going to be busy. I need to follow up with the art guy tomorrow, Castle Roan should be able to come out this week. I need to go make sure I still have the art for The Temple of Zeus. I will get that typed up, and makes the changes I need to. and then when that is done, it’s full steam ahead on The Temple of Set.

I think I am going to sign up tomorrow for North Texas RPG con, they are not only doing the in person con, but they are doing a virtual con. NTRPGCon – 2021V (virtual) (tabletop.events)

While the time has come to say, until next time Keep gaming.

This week in Gaming 4/8/21 or Fat Bottom Goblins make the world go round

Since the last time I wrote This Week in Gaming, I have had one Goblin join the ranks, so now I only need one more and we will reach both Patron goals that I have for this month. https://www.patreon.com/user?u=14964776&fan_landing=true

I have been thinking I need a new bookcase, because I am starting, have run out of space, but than I found this thing and wont need to get a new bookcase for some time, but I might go broke. https://goodman-games.com/blog/2021/04/06/coming-soon-the-shelf-file-of-holding/

Frog God’s Game Day is this weekend, I hope that I am able to run my game. I only have 2.5 people signed up right now, and you ask how, well some of us are old and aren’t sure they can stay up that late. https://www.froggodgames.com/game-day/?fbclid=IwAR2C2gcdN62jcc8d-U33cXVGD_M4_ynl6mIXjy9dfG4132nokMC6O8TarhE

Alright now to the gaming, Wonderland: I got more tap to finish mapping the map, so now I can start drawing the world I might get on that next Tuesday. I can maybe go to the game store and work in the Dragon room.

The Final Dream I: I should be able to finish the first Draft of the Temple of Zeus this week, and when I get back from my trip I can get it typed out. Then on to The Temple of Set.

While I think that is all for this week, so until next time keep Gaming.

I just want to say real fast, that one thing I like about blog spot is it told me how many blogs I have created so I am going to have to see if I can find something like that on here, or if I am just going to have to start counting by hand. I don’t think I have that many fingers.

I am happy the website is coming along nicely. I have this plan that everyday at 4 pm, I will work on it, but today I am going back to working on The Temple of Zeus when I am done here, I use my table for pictures and I can’t us it right now. I am working on The Yard sale more right now because all the stuff I have is ready to go. All the gaming stuff I have to read and deiced if am keeping it or not.

That being said I am getting more copies of The King’s Castle, but until then if you want you can go here. https://www.lulu.com/en/us/shop/chantel-jones/ch1-the-kings-castle/paperback/product-7dg5y4.html?page=1&pageSize=4 I am also going to see about getting some books from Casl Ent and selling them here.

I still need to do the about us page, and I will get to it in due time.

I have decided that I am not going to run anything for Reaver con, but I am going to go to at least one panel. https://tabletop.events/conventions/reaver-con-ia

There is Frog God Game Day this weekend, and right now it is looking like my midnight Madness game is not going to happy, and that might be ok. I have to wake up on Sunday and go for a 4 hour drive.

I think that is it for the day, so until Next time keep gaming.

Super Beat Down Sunday

It has been a few months since I did a Super Beat Down Sunday. But I might be getting back into so I have a reason to play Arena. yeah I know I was excited the other day when I said I had not played it for five days, but I really want to figure out how to make my Saga deck work, so I need to do that and I want to make my Boros Dwarf deck better.

So each week I will talk about my online encounters, and if I go play with my group I will share about that too. One reason I stopped doing the Super Beat Downs is that I can only take so much of my group, I really need to find a new one.

Alright today’s daily challenge was to cast 20 creatures, I used my Orzhov deck and, casting that mean creatures, it’s going to take a few games because the deck is fast and It is not very often that would cast more than five creatures at a time. I went 4-1 with this deck, the deck I lost to was a mono red deck, and could not get my life gain fast enough not to get burned. I made it to Gold 2.

In the Real life game, I was able to play with my uncle, we played four games The first two games I played my Gruul deck. I did better the second game, but still lost both. I could not get any land.

The second game I used my Dimir storybook deck. I one that game, I have to say though that the last two times I have used that deck, I have had to come up with other ways to win, because my go to move with the Folio just hasn’t happened.

The Third game I used another Dimir mill deck. The idea is that my defenders mill. I won that game.

The Last game was commander, I could have won a few times, but I am trying to teach my uncle how to play the game better. I am not sure why.

Alright that is it for now, so until next time keep gaming.

There really is noting to this post other than sharing stuff I feel you might like.

First we will start with Reaver Con, https://tabletop.events/conventions/reaver-con-i?fbclid=IwAR3j5_XOtIGYRz0WE7YFzL2q_7pGmRotNW8gD52OXqUCOGob-PxKLiZadXI It’s everything Goodman Games. I have bought my badge, but I am starting to wonder if I really want to run some games. I have been talking to some people in the Goodman Games Discord and everything I want to run is longer than four hours. There is a panel I want to do called Let’s make Monsters.

The next thing is Game Day by Frog God Games. https://www.froggodgames.com/game-day/?fbclid=IwAR3T4qxQGVKNqJt5B1s4pCXEXrpz3K4mAk7zOdsJSHgTXX24Phx7kKMDnE0 I am running The King’s Castle on Saturday for Midnight Madness, and yes it starts at Midnight

Now I think it is time to share more gaming goodness with you. My buddy Randy Price and his company 2Kings has some good stuff if you are looking to play D&D with the little ones. https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/307906/?fbclid=IwAR0j4S1OOM2icebvRAwDp84B3i1eAX3WLpP7sjbDigHmMAtOX3OLcQoHib4

Alright that should be good until next time so until than keep gaming.

This Week in Gaming 4/1/2021

This week has been good, I think part of that is because I have not been playing MTG Arena for no other reason than I need to not waste my time.

Wonderland: I have most of the map ready, I have three more pages to add to it and then I can start drawing. I went to get tape today, and while I need more because I got double sided sticky tape.

I have been thinking what the kids and I will do for our 5e game, I have been looking at some of the stuff from Wizards and I don’t like it, so I have been thinking I will just do Wonderland. That should be good and it will let me work on my writing at the same time.

The Final Dream: I am about 10 rooms away from being done with the third level of the Temple of Zeus, and should be able to get the map done for level four. I am not sure what I am going to do with level four yet, I keep thinking a dog named Zeus will be in this level but that is as far as I have gotten.

Next week Castle Roan should come out, I am going to send my art guy a message when I am done with the blog, and then I am thinking about doing an other adventure for Geryhawk con this October.

I have signed up to do a DCC con in April, and might be doing this other con and the end to show my games, I don’t remember what is called I will put that in my next blog. I am not one 100% sure about the second con, but for sure doing the DCC con. https://www.patreon.com/posts/49494510

I have so much stuff to do, so I think we have come to the part where I say until next time keep gaming.

The Adventures of Chantel #37

The website is coming along, I have been dealing with GoDaddy since last Friday to get my domain Transferred to WordPress, and I finally figured out every thing I needed, and in 5-7 days I will not need to work with them anymore, that makes me so happy.

Today I got most of the social media’s connected to the website, I was hoping to get connected to the Discord server, but don’t have that done yet. Until we get that done you can join here. https://discord.gg/gAxV8cA9.

I think it is time for one of those short blogs I do something, so I can get back to working on The Temple of Zeus. So Until next time keep gaming.

This Week in Gaming 3/25/2021

Gary con is on, if you are a part of that good luck to your characters you are going to need it unless you are playing AL. I think I said before that I had some life stuff come up and I am not running my games this year.

The Website is coming along, this makes me happy. I learned the other day that I can’t get plug-ins unless I get the Business version and that is coming, but it it going to take a few moons to get there. So I am not sure what I am going to do the the Game Store or The Yard sale yet.

Wonderland: I am not going to be able to start this until next week. I just need to go to the game store and work. The table at my house always seems to have people at it.

The Final Dream I: I have finished level two and got level three of the Temple of Zeus mapped out, I will be spending the rest of the day working on Treasure & Monsters. I don’t know how many monsters will be on this level, level two had 31.

I have this list of gems for when it comes up on the treasure right now there are 20 items on it but today I am going to add Moon stones to it. I might add a few more we will see.

I have 4 copies of The King’s Castle coming, I hope they come today. Two of them are being sold to one of the 12 FlGS that are in my area, one of them will be to show off to the other games stores in the state, and then one if for me. Then I will get more for the site. but until they you can order them in PoD from Lulu. https://www.lulu.com/en/us/shop/chantel-jones/ch1-the-kings-castle/paperback/product-7dg5y4.html?page=1&pageSize=4

I think that is all for this week, so until next time Keep Gaming.

The Adventures of Chantel #36

We are starting with Adventure number 36, because I use to have a blog at BlogSpot, you can read the rest of the blogs here. https://agameraday.blogspot.com/2021/03/the-adventures-of-chantel-35-moving-on.html. But after trying this out, I might move back and just export here to WordPress.

For those of you that are new, I will always have a blog on Thursday about all the gaming stuff I did for the week. The Adventures come and go, when I feel like it. But the goal is to be able to write something every day because I will be A Gamer A Day.

I am going to be adding a webstore to the site, but one thing at a time. So until then I have a Drivethrurpg store of my PDF’s that you can find. https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse/pub/14046/Chantel-Jones?term=Chantel+Jones+

I also have a Lulu store for the Print on demand books. https://www.lulu.com/search?adult_audience_rating=00&page=1&pageSize=10&q=Chantel+Jones. I need to work on the info page there, but again one thing at a time.

I am going to try and get a page just for it, but I also have a patron, where you can get my writing early and some other wonderful stuff. https://www.patreon.com/user?u=14964776&fan_landing=true. I have two goals right now, one we are about to reach is I am able to get one more Goblin, and that is the 15 dollar a month goal. The other goal is that I am looking to add four goblins to the patron this month.

That is all I have for this adventure, so until next time Keep Gaming.
