Hey, do you remember that Jack Chick tract Dark Dungeons? Yeah, the one that made D&D out to be a nest of occult power? Did you know they made a movie a decade ago? It premiered at GenCon. Would you like to watch it?

@edchivers See if nothing else this is just a very clear admonition that we need to step our games up. Get people hyped at the table. Pull in a crowd. Don't be afraid to be completely ridiculous.
Besides, it's obvious they're playing Dark Dungeons.
(I'm actually strangely amused that despite the generally common understanding and knowledge that such a thing exists, no one has done a Dark Dungeons RPG standalone. I wonder how much Jack Chick would charge for a license to do so. I'm tempted to put together an appropriate letter to find out.)
