Post 3K - One Random Commenter Will Get a $10 GC to RPGNow

Three thousand posts. It doesn't feel a hair more that 2,500 ;)

In any case, we are celebrating the occasion by giving away a $10 Gift Certificate to RPGNow to a random commenter on this very post. Add your comment by 1PM tomorrow NYC time (That's May 2) for your chance at the cash.

We ( +Christopher Helton , +Matt Finch and myself) are closing in on awarding the prizes for the Swords & Wizardry Appreciation Day blogfest. If we do this again next year, I need two days off from work - one to run it and one to recover and read the posts.

So, what are you waiting for? Add some comments!

heh ;)

  5. Do multiple comments get you multiple entries? If so, it's really slow at work today and I can flood the post with comments.

  6. "There once was a girl from Seville, who swallowed a bomb for a pill.
    They found her ______ in North Carolina, and her ____ on a hill in Brazil."

    I have left the NSFW bits for you all to fill out.

    I feel now that with a limerick, I have sealed the win on this puppy and the rest of you can simply not even try, it will be so FUTILE in the shadow of my LIMERICK AWESOMENESS.

    As you were.

  21. James who?! You've got my vote as the heart and soul of the OSR, my man! Heavy is the head that wears the crown? Only if you let it get you down, and that doesn't seem to be a problem for you! Congrats, congrats, and more congrats on hitting 3,000! May you post 3,000 more!

    1. The crown is cursed. I'll pass on the crown as it grants no authority, just illusions of grandeur.

      This shit is fun for me. When it ceases to be fun, I'll change it up so it's fun again. Although if you think I'm prolific with my postings now, just wait until I can retire in 3 years...

  31. Thanks for being the news service for the OSR (and other sundries), along with the tedious, but entertaining to me at least, task of keeping Kickstarter hustles honest. Now, about that 10 dollars...

    ReplyDelete
  32. Come for the Swords & Wizardry love; stick around for the Kickstarter snarkiness ;-)

  36. Welcome to Tenkar's! Yes, there's a bearded wizard who wants to hire some help just over there, and indeed, that corner yonder is where our shadowy stranger reclines. Over by the fire is the grizzled old man who loves spinning tales, and as I can tell from your goggle-eyed expression, our barmaids are busty as would be expected.
