I actually have not. I'm about to leave work for the day, so I bookmarked it and will check it out tonight. Thanks for sharing, man.

This is an awesome thread, BTW, and I think required reading for anyone interested in old school play.

Just be careful, Dave, I burned an entire night just reading that thing (there's a part 2). As thirdkingdom said, it captures the joy of old school play.

If anyone is interested here's a (fairly long-lived) pbp game I played in directly influenced by Mailer's thread: https://forum.rpg.net/showthread.php?68 ... st16630659

Sounds like a lot of fun. Do you have room for more?

Of course, man. I've already gone ahead and added to the official game forum, so feel free to join in the 'Pregame Discussion' thread.

(Note: For the record, any/everyone is welcome to join!)

In if you'll have me. I think my first character's name will be Theodore Phineas Kunkel

Was there any question? You are definitely in!

Adding to game now.

Officially up to 16 players, which is awesome! Definitely enough to form two healthy adventuring groups. And, with my latest discovery, there's a chance this game could get rocking-and-rolling pretty quickly.

Fellowship of the Bling

Could easily accommodate multiple parties, and the dungeons don't have to make sense! But it does do away with the megadungeon concept...

I'm an admittedly slow reader, but damn! I have been reading the Bling thread since Wednesday and am only on page 40 (of 90). (And to think there's a second part!)

Really good read, though.

I loved rooting for the characters in that game (and B/X games in general). I personally like the high mortality at low levels of the game - if you make it to 2 or 3, that's really something. Plus, it really makes the world seem dangerous and truly an adventure.

RL is crazy for me, and I'm trying to limit the number of games I'm in, but I couldn't pass this one up!

This sounds like a lot of fun. I want in!

Ok, this sounds way too much fun to pass up.

Room for one more?

I have room for many more. I'll add you to the official game forum now.

He's in.

I will create a 'Group Assignment' thread now, and let you guys at least tentatively begin forming groupings.
