Elvismancer Fact Finding Mission

Steve Johnson2 years ago6 months ago04 mins

A couple weeks ago I realized that I had a an upcoming Friday off work and that I live 3 hours away from Memphis, so I decided that if Elvismancer was in the editors’ hands by that Thursday, I would celebrate with a trip to Graceland. There were a few sections still unwritten when the…

The Orders of Elvismancy

Steve Johnson2 years ago6 months ago07 mins

Sample from Elvismancer: The Blue Hawaii Boating Club Officially, the Blue Hawaii Boating Club is a trade organization of everyday Elvis impersonators who work, according to their website, “in the nautical performance space.” This includes both performers who work on cruise ships, riverboats, and other entertainment vessels and those who incorporate skiing, surfing, and other…

Has Elvis Left the Building? (Elvismancer Preview)

Steve Johnson2 years ago6 months ago01 mins

I just posted an update to the Elvismancer Kickstarter. The plan was to include a writing sample, but the completely reasonable few paragraphs I originally meant to write combined with a throwaway line from an old Death Cookie article and became an 1800-word in-world article. Since that was way too long for a Kickstarter update,…

Just click the link and you’ll get 10 nutty conspiracies ranging from the almost believable to the completely batfuck. Don’t like them? Click the button at the bottom of…

#RPGADAY2016 All At Once

Steve Johnson7 years ago7 months ago01 mins

I’m going to do all of this year’s #RPGADAY questions real-quick like. 1) Real dice, dice app, diceless, how do you prefer to “roll”? Don’t care. If I’m sitting around a table, I’ll usually go with real dice. If rolling dice is a pain in the ass, I’m fine with an app. Facebook Twitter Reddit…

RPGaDay2015 Part 2 (15-16)

Steve Johnson8 years ago7 months ago05 mins

15. Longest campaign played The longest game I’ve ever played was (QAGS co-founder) Leighton Connor’s “Ficton” super-hero game (not to be confused with The Hex Ficton), which I’ve mentioned here before. It think it lasted around six years, but I’m not sure if it would technically be considered a single campaign; the climax was rooted…

Why Are These Awesome People Hanging Out Together?

Steve Johnson10 years ago7 months ago01 mins

The Awesome People Hanging Out Together blog, as the name implies, features pictures of awesome people hanging out together. The blog basically just posts pics with absolutely no context, so you’ve got to guess at what brought them together. Why not make the reason something that you can use in a game? Unless otherwise noted,…

Mash-Up Madness 2: Electric Bugaloo

Steve Johnson11 years ago7 months ago01 mins

Back in May, I did a set of Dumb Tables you could use to come up with a game by ripping off existing stuff. That was fun, and after the holiday break I can’t come up with any ideas, so I’m going to do it again, but with slightly different blanks to fill in.  …
