SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

For RPG Blog 2:

If I have one overriding belief in gaming, it’s that lizard-like races shouldn’t have bosoms.

If I have two overriding beliefs in gaming, the second is that the pdf and online revolution has given us a number of small companies every bit as talented and amazing as the larger publishers. There are many, many, many unsung excellent companies making games and supplements that are just begging to be discovered. And for every one we cover, there are a dozen we don’t get to.

Well, that’s why I’ve suggested to my fellow RPG Bloggers to make October 19-23 Small Press Week. It's going to be a week focusing on reviews, interviews, and articles about the best in small press gaming. New school, old school, avant-garde, or mainstream--whatever folks want to cover.

For some bloggers, it’ll be business as usual. But I’m hoping this serves to highlight and show off any number of small press games, and ultimately gets more folks playing. Gaming isn't a two or three-horse race; there's more great games out there than we'll ever have time to play.

If you have a small press game or product you’d like reviewed or covered, drop me a line at mail.rpgblog(at)gmail.com. I already have several I’m working on for that time, but we should have a goodly list of other bloggers participating that we can coordinate with (bloggers, if interested, let me know, if you haven't already!). Get ready to celebrate the Little Guy in Gaming!
