Couldn't find a thread for it here, so I'm starting one. Here are mine:

•   Get Sci-Fi Beta Kappa out there, and playtest Where The Heart Is loads more.
•   Play some FATE, Savage Worlds and Cortex.
•   Garner some solid GMing experience- build up a range of scenarios that can be whipped out as and when.
•   Attend Furnace (a UK con that regularly tops the polls) and Origins.
•   Finally get to play Mouse Guard and Jaws.
•   Find all the cylinders on my blog and get it firing on them.
•   Do more reading around RPGs and roleplaying in general. There are some interesting- and plunderable- columns and articles out there.
•   Clone myself so I can follow all the forums I'm on (though I guess each clone would have to have their own laptop- ok, not such a good idea).
•   Try to ensure I don't have all the same resolutions next year as this one.

Let's see, in no particular order:

• Get my new D&D 2e PbP going (this month)
• Reboot my old 2e PbP (sometime in March or later)
• Participate more here and on Google+
• Finish the retroclone my S.O. and I are tinkering around with and make it available on PDF and Wiki
• Moar maps! I love doing maps, and it's been way too long since I've worked on any.
• Start a Stars Without Number PbP
• Read more good books on game design and theory
• Post more content to my MMO guild's blog

I'm not actually *in* any PbPs at the moment, but that could change, if the right one comes along.

• Continue my Star Wars play-by-post game (over 16 months old).
• Get a DC Heroes play-by-post going and keep it up.
• Play some Pathfinder with my daughter.
• Continue work on my retro-clone that mixes elements of every edition of D&D.

• Trying to keep an active gaming life at all, in spite of multiple time-consuming personal endeavors and work projects.


• Less reading about RPGs on the Internet and more writing up stuff for the game table.


• End the GMing hiatus and finish both my WFRP 2e games.


• Start and run one long-term campaign of a game I truly love (like D&D, or CoC, or Traveller), plus a few one-shots or mini-campaigns of far-out ideas and/or of new RPGs that catches my fancy.


• Find a supers game I like.

From Facebook:

In 2012 many of you, partners, friends and relatives, have bestowed me with a great deal of trust and belief in what I do, what I love, and what I want to achieve for myself and those around me. I cannot thank you enough for all these demonstrations, and feel that whatever words I could find would in the end fall short to repay you for all this. At the end of the day, according to the well-known truism, actions speak louder than any word ever could. It is thus my wish, and personal commitment this year, to work hard and do everything I can to use this energy, this confidence you invested me with, and put it into creative endeavors which will ultimately bear fruits. This is the year of "shut up and just do it already" for me now. I'm taking the ball, running with it, and I'm going to give everything I have to score a touchdown. That's my promise to you. Happy New Year to all.

Wow, dude, that's some kind of ambitious!

I've had Smallville heavily recommended to me recently. Which accounts for my determination to try out Cortex this year- both Smallville and Marvel Heroic are getting a whole lotta lurve atm.

1. Build my 1900s fantasy sandbox.
2. Run my two sets of friends through a campaign using S&W and Basic to see which one works better.
3. Keep a detail log of my experiments.
4. Make more useful contributions about how to use old games in new ways.

Just one: run as many online groups as my schedule can handle.

Not my cup of tea, I'm afraid; I have a hard time wrapping my head around the more abstract, "storygamey" mechanics of both Smallville and MHRP.

Fair enough; Margaret Weis does indeed lie more towards the storygamey end of the RPG spectrum.

What platform- PbF? Skype? G+?

Man, we've got to try Icons or maybe give one more chance to BASH... You know, with a smaller, more focused group.

Or, for clearly Iron Age style, Wild Talents 2e

I posted the closest thing you'll get from me on my blog:

"  I will want to make new inroads in my work to try to keep up the kind of success I had this year, I need to work harder at managing my time effectively, to keep working on making my relationship with The Wench better, its going to be a very busy masonic year, I have to get Arrows of Indra published (though I absolutely do not forsee the difficulties that Lords of Olympus had; AoI WILL come out in January or February of 2013!  But then, I'll have to work on supporting and promoting it), and of course, in a couple of months The Wench and I have to move, saying goodbye to this spectacular seventh-story apartment that's been my residence for the last 5 years, and moving on to something new."

Tell me about it. Time-management is what I'm most crap at, hence the desire to clone myself, multiplicity being probably the only answer to this age-old problem.

My problem with time management is mainly giving myself time to take breaks.
