Only a day spent in the warm waters that is the national gamers event called Gaelcon. I dumped my kid on her Grandmother and Auntie, grabbed my bag of dice, ever-present satchel and a few pens, (oh and my Nintendo DS Lite, don’t go anywhere without these days). I only had a day. I choose […]
… and just a little soul draining. My last few entries on my blog have all been about the Game Crafters Guild website and mostly technical in nature. Here, here and here. I thought the idea behind the GCG site was/is a good one. It would be something I would contribute to and participate in. […]

Took another 30 minutes to upgrade that site and that one of there. ’tis important to keep web software up to date otherwise […]
This is rather funky. If your a WordPress user there is this nice plugin called X-Dashboard which allows you to configure the ‘dashboard’ on the WordPress interface. I only recently figured out how to get the Dashboard working properly on Redbrick (see the Redbrick Wiki Topic “Installing WordPress”) so I fired up the plugin and […]

Magic users across the Fair City of Paris have been suffering visions of a howling spirit in the burnt remains of Paris. Maxime, Head of the Order of Hermes, has asked you to find out what is going on and what it may mean. Even the Technocracy has no clue. A very non-canon Mage story […]
