And as Jan's family is Skandaharan, he might want to avoid that area for a while!!

GM, 4917 posts Wed 1 Sep 2021 at 23:01 | Re: "Group 0" OOC Chat and RTJ Specific AdventuresIn view of the first of October, that is the Dave Arneson Day, I'm thinking about staging a small competition between the players to write a post/essay on a theme linked to Dave Arneson and Blackmoor and then reward it with Experience Points for their character(s): 100 XPs for the winner, 50 XPs for the runner up and 25 XPs for the third. How does it sound?
I'll think about it tomorrow during the day and then I'll write down my thoughts here, to get your feedback.

GM, 4922 posts Thu 2 Sep 2021 at 21:02 | Re: "Group 0" OOC Chat and RTJ Specific AdventuresInitially I was thinking about some simple, broad theme, such as: "What is Dave Arneson's legacy for contemporary role-players?" or "Which aspects of Dave Arneson's way of roleplaying have been maintained today and which need to be rediscovered?" but your question about the themes made me think... What are your thoughts about it? What do you think may be a suitable theme for the Dave Arneson Day?

I think that would be nice.

Themes?? How about...
To what extent does Dave Arneson use the concept of light and dark within his world of Blackmoor?? And how influential are these concepts on the players, their characters and how they view the game world??

let's wait a couple of days and see if your proposal gets some interest. In the meanwhile, you can start having a look at potential adventures that you may want to play.

I'll be writing soon enough but have my own assignments due in over the next few weeks, not to mention my planning and prep for work.

This might be tough for me, because I don’t really consider myself a contemporary gamer. I’m an old school kind of guy and I know little about today’s scene, except for playing here and on Roll20.

Well... I understand very well your point, but I guess that, if you play in 2021, you can't deny you're contemporary ;)
