One of the fun things I got to experience at virtual #gencon2022 was #virtualtabletop platforms that are not #role20 or #fantasygrounds. No shade to them, I just like options and sometimes smaller platforms can serve niche purposes. One was https://app.playrole.com/ which just announced #starfleetadventures support (see at https://app.playrole.com/games/star-trek-adventures/preview ) I liked them enough to boost the announcement here.
Games

All featured games come complete with premium game rooms and custom play materials to make running your next game as easy and immersive as possible. Once purchased, all downloadable content is yours to keep - all DRM-free!

Finally sorted out my pledge for
the #Distilled #boardgame by my buddy Dave Beck of #PaversonGames
If you like medium heavy board games and whisky then check it out.
Was great to play it and catch up at #GenCon2022.

Unbagging in the Nook: Gen Con 2022

This isn't without its own concerns (How does this affect pro-choice businesses who would benefit from the tourism? Is there a way that aligning with local organisers would affect change?) but considering the few politicians responsible for the ban likely don't care... 🤷🏿

As #GenCon2022 winds down, & I sit in the hotel lobby for the last time, I am drawn to think about the chats I’ve had this week about safety, about inclusion, about fighting harassment & radicalization—and what it may have in common with introducing someone to a new RPG. Thread.

Am catching up with @PodByNight episode which happened this weekend #GenCon2022

Jon the ghoul, unexpectedly bitching about about Shaun, had me roaring laughing.

Also fair play to @Mark_Meer playing Max in all his glory.

Real talk: before #GenCon2022 ends, I would love to play a game of WIXOSS with someone who has already played before and knows the rules. Any Selectors in the house??
Hello #GenCon2022 folks! If you’re attending the Writers’ Symposium, I’m having a Q&A right now at Ballroom 3 at the Downtown Marriott! Come hang with me!

Almost all of the copies of CAN YOU SIGN MY TENTACLE? that I brought with me to #GenCon2022 are gone! But remember that you can get yourself a physical or digital copy anytime by checking out the @IntFlightPress website links or your favourite bookstore!

Can You Sign My Tentacle?

Cthulhu meets hip-hop in this book of horror poems that flips the eldritch genre upside down. Lovecraftian-inspired nightmares are reversed as O'Brien asks readers to see Blackness as radically significant. Can You Sign My Tentacle? explores the monsters
