Lex Starwalker 🚀🪐Today on my #RPG #podcast I discuss Daggerheart’s GM Best Practices. These will help you be a better GM, no matter what game you’re playing or which system you’re using.

Stop being the "dancing monkey" for your RPG group and discover how GM-less systems and decentralized play can turn a burnt-out Forever GM into a lifelong Player of Games.
Dr. G. PowerI generally don't like Forza games, but I can't deny that the locations in this new game do look beautiful! I've watched the videos on YouTube and I am very impressed. #gming

QuasitGamemastering a tabletop roleplaying campaign is a lot like being a TV showrunner, I suspect - or at least, GMing the kind of campaigns that I run. I find myself recognizing plot arcs and twists in shows, and coming up with alternative or better options as I watch.
It comes from years of handling long-term story arcs and overlapping shorter-term stories with continuing characters. After a while finding new plot twists and arcs becomes second nature. I've been doing it so long that I do it in my dreams!
It's a little frustrating, because I have the skill...but I'll never have the option to make use of it outside of a roleplaying campaign.

Some titles for the instrumental tracks I plan on using in the #Voidfront game tomorrow:
- A Cuckoo Short Of An Overclock
- I Promise This Is Intended As Help
- Twinks We Do In The Dark
- Overhead Buffer? I Don't Even Know Her
- Sugar Rush-Driven Chariot
- Snafu's Little Helper
I have way too much fun naming tracks.

DThoris@stumblewyk I'm currently prepping to run a (heavily modified) old adventure. I realized one of the GB groups is basically MAGA and has to ask my group if they thought it was too "on the nose" for our current environment. Everyone was OK with it, so long as they were allowed to kill the BGs in question. Catharsis is a real thing!
T.W.Wombat (aka Jim White)I ran my D&D game last night, and I thought I'd write up how I prepped for it in hopes of starting some discussion about how y'all prep for games.
Talya (she/her) 🏳️⚧️✡️The No-Prep Gamemaster. a good book for GMs, an even better book for *non* GMs.
if you're in doubt whether you can run a game — this book is for you.
while the author claims the middle section is the core of the book, i actually think the extended preamble about what being a GM means is the true gem this book offers.
if you're debating GMing but think you aren't ready: read this book. you won't regret it.

jendefer@tabcreations.com Heh, this reminds me of the ski resort murder mystery I ran once...
