It happened again, and I am sure it will happen more times. While I was sitting at the game store some one said it’s the law that company’s make as much money as they can. Now it gets better because this person said the way the last is written it focuses on the bonus of short term gain.

Oh man I have some bad news for you. First it’s not a Law and if it is there are a lot of companies that should be facing fines and the most. Second even if we are only talking about short term let’s say 3-6 months companies are still leaving a shit ton of money on the table and are not facing any criminal charges for breaking the law.

Now because it was at a game store and they were talking about Wizbro’s we will start there. Now if Wizbro’s was by law forced to make as much money as they can in a three month period, they would make sure everyone that wanted a Sonic Secret Lair got one. The system they have now is like a bidding war just to be able to get one, and it’s not a guarantee that you will get one, which means Wizbro’s is losing money. Plus they are not reprinting Secret Lair cards to normal cards anymore so if you miss out on Sonic Wizbro’s has missed out on money.

Now let’s talk about some other things. Target in February reported that they had lost 15 billion dollars after deciding that they were no longer going to focus on DEI. So even before their three months period was up, they had already lost 15 billion dollars. What happen to the CEO for losing all that money. He was issued a pay cut, and Target started looking for a new CEO. But what about the Law? Nothing..

You would think in America where the only thing that matters is the Almighty Dollar there would be more done to enforce this law that says you have to make as much money.

Now I know that even though Monopolies are illegal there are still some, but in a world where you have to make as much money as you can there should not be a lot of game companies like Pazio or Troll Lord Games, or The Swamp. There would just be Wizbro’s because they would have to buy any company that took away money from them.

It’s the same for Victoria Secret they would be forced to buy Torrid and Adore Me, and all the little boutiques.

Alright I think that’s it for now, so until the next time we have to talk about this subject keep gaming.

This week as been okay for writing, I have gotten a good amount done. There is still a lot to do.

This week the promotion is The King’s Castle OSRIC version: https://legacy.drivethrurpg.com/product/348661/Adventure-Mod-CH1-The-Kings-Castle?affiliate_id=1559598.

We have reached 0/6 new Goblins this week https://www.patreon.com/c/u14964776/membership.

What’s happening this week?

I have more work to get done on the classes of Wonderland. I would like to get 5 classes done this week.

I will get another section written on Ozzland.

I think that is it for this week. So until next time keep gaming.

I should be writing reading my BlueHolmes Rule book so I can get back to working on Wonderland or working on character sheets and Magic items for next months Adventures in Music or working on Ozzland. But here I am writing a blog about how not very many things have worked out this year.

Now for those of you that ready my blog every Sunday you know I have said at least twice that this year has been a year.

At some point last year I started looking in to go to some events like farmers markets and stuff and setting up shop there. Well it didn’t take long for that to work out.

I was able to go to Rage Con this year. I am happy about that I was able to take a flyer to Game Kasl, I don’t this that spelling is right, but I know they don’t spell Castle the normal way. They only allow flyer’s to be up for one week. I think I am going to have to start sending them a flyer every week.

I do with I could have done more while I was there. But maybe next year will be a better year at Rage con.

It’s almost time for VGHC. https://tabletop.events/conventions/virtual-greyhawk-con-2025. all my games have been approved. and I am looking forward to showing off CH 1 The King’s Castle and CH 2 The Temple of Zeus.

I still need to go and buy my ticket to Timp con. It’s two days of Gaming so I have not come up with a plan yet on what I am going to run.

I think that is it for today, so until next time keep gaming.

It’s once again time to talk about getting ready for the U1 to Ravenloft game that I am going to do with my kids. Side Note my son who wanted to do this game doesn’t want to do it anymore, so we will see what happens.

Last week we made characters for my oldest kid and her boyfriend. They are both playing half-elfs.

She wanted to play a Thief, she thought about playing a Paladin, but if she did that her boyfriend wouldn’t be able to play an Assassin.

We have a montely crew here a Cleric/Fighter/Magic-User, a Fighter/Thief, a Thief, and an Assassin.

Two more things. I need to get some supplies for a business trip in October and need to order them from the UK, and could use your help if you want to buy my products that would be great. https://tabletop.events/conventions/virtual-greyhawk-con-2025

Second, if you want to help Chantel be a sexy bitch that gets to play D&D everyday check out my patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/user/membership?u=14964776

This past week has been kind of slow when it comes to the writing.

This week the promotion is The Sword of Laban, a 5e 1st level adventure. https://legacy.drivethrurpg.com/product/336768/The-Sword-of-Laban?affiliate_id=1559598

This week the Goal for amount of new Goblins to the Army is six. https://www.patreon.com/c/user/membership?u=14964776

What’s happening this week at The Swamp?

Well aside form all the stuff I have to get a new job. I hope to finish the Blueholme rules and get back to writing Wonderland.

I also will start working on Next months Adventures in Music and get some work done on Ozzland.

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

Today’s blog post come care of WordPress. I have spent most of the day thinking about if I was going to write a post today, and then I remembered I saw this question and need to write a post.

I hope more people come to the hobby. There are two things I want to come out of this blog and they are both kind of big.

The first is that The Gamer A Day is a tool to help Chantel become the sexy bitch that gets to play D&D everyday. There is the game store here on this site.

The Drivethru store: https://legacy.drivethrurpg.com/browse.php?keywords=Chantel+jones&x=0&y=0&author=&artist=&pfrom=&pto=

And the Patreon: where you can become an Goblin in my Army, or even get a copy of Lady Fear a 5e adventure: https://www.patreon.com/c/user/membership?u=14964776

The second thing is, I wish there would be No More Turning Away. Even more today then ever before. I use to think maybe the games would be the ones to figure it out, but that was just a dream. Any way I try not to “Just Stand and Stare” but I hope I can convince you to do the say.

Alright I think that’s it for today, so Until next time keep gaming.

I am so tired. Job hunting sucks, and it’s even worse when you have no job. I have been so focused on that, that I have not done much of anything else. And I am sure you already know this but the idea that it’s easier to get a job when you have a job is some next level bullshit.

I applied for two jobs last night, and this morning I got an email from both places that I have not been selected to move on to the next stage. I had a phone interview with a Solar company, but I know that solar is starting to lay people off.

On the plus side I only need to sell six copies of Escape From Cyclops Island in order for it to become a Copper Best-seller. https://legacy.drivethrurpg.com/product/260710/Escape-from-Cyclops-Island?affiliate_id=1559598

The other good news is. I have this other adventure for 5e called Lady Fear. https://www.patreon.com/posts/adventure-lady-132912761?source=storefront

I think that’s it for this time. So until next time keep gaming.

It’s good to be writing a blog about gaming or starting the process to being able to game.

I am starting a game with my kids and their friends. We are going to be running U1 The Sinister Secret of Saltmarsh, and some how they will find there way into Ravenloft.

So far we have only created two characters. A Cleric/Fighter/Magic-user and a Fighter/Thief.

That’s all I have for this week, so until next time keep gaming.

It’s been a busy day here at The Swamp. Most of it was spent helping my wife with her business. I think that’s how it’s going to be tomorrow too. Today she went and looked at renting a building.

I did have to go to the copy center and post office. I feel like I am at the copy center so much they should know who I am, and maybe the do but they don’t care and honestly I am okay with that.

The work I did for The Swamp today was working on the side project. I did some research for Wonderland, but have decided what I came up with I will use in Ozzland.

I got a DM from someone on discord today, asking about getting in on my Ravenloft game. They told me about their character a little and I was like first I deleted my game a month ago. and second and here’s the important part in 1e first level characters don’t get strongholds. And before anyone @’s me, I made it very clear when I posted the game that it was 1e.

I think that’s all I have for today, so until next time keep gaming.

I wanted to write a blog Yesterday, but I did not want today’s post to be the 1000th post. Turns out I should have done that post yesterday. Happy 1000th post Chantel. It’s only taken 10 years to do this but it’s still cool I think.

Most of my game writing right now is just readying. So not as much is happening as I want it to but I guess that’s how it goes some times.

This week the promotion is Escape From Cyclops Island. This adventure is for D&D 3/3.5 and has Flesh Eating Sheep. I only need to sell six more copies for it to become a Copper Bestseller on Drivethru. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5AbEin6Kuw

This month the Patreon goal is Six new Goblins. It’s a new month so there is a post about what is happening and the new setting I am working on called Ozzland it’s not Ravenloft. https://www.patreon.com/c/user/membership?u=14964776

What’s happening this week

I need to spend an hour working on my book, I will try and get more, but it has to be at least an hour.

I have to work on my side project.

I need to spend some time working on Ozzland.

And of course the main focus of my time is Wonderland

I think that’s it for now, so until next time keep gaming.
