Reader Donateller read the D&D campaign I put up and was inpired to draw a picture of the situation in this post.
It’s a pretty big thrill to see our story through the eyes of someone else, so I got a real kick out of this.
The Best of 2014
My picks for what was important, awesome, or worth talking about in 2014.
Grand Theft Auto Retrospective
This series began as a cheap little 2D overhead game and grew into the most profitable entertainment product ever made. I have a love / hate relationship with the series.
The Truth About Piracy
What are publishers doing to fight piracy and why is it all wrong?
The Gradient of Plot Holes
Most stories have plot holes. The failure isn't that they exist, it's when you notice them while immersed in the story.
Revisiting a Dead Engine
I wanted to take the file format of a late 90s shooter and read it in modern-day Unity. This is the result.
sigh..you know…. even the guy on THE OTHER website got the name right….EOMIER…… I before E …. dyslecix tool.
You were the DM and you have yet to get my name right…sheesh….
Fixed.
Sorry. It just looks.. wrong with the i first. It looks like “Eeyo-mire” instead of “Eeyo-mer”, which is how everyone – including you- pronounces it.
Dyslexic tool.
Ahh, that made me giggle even if it seems a bit mean.
i can kinda draw, and I’ve made a portrait of all the characters in the campeign i’m running. I’d do the same for other campeigns, like yours, but I feel nerdy enough already.
I do love your write-up of the old campaign. That’s what brought me to the site. I hope someday when you’re done with DMotR that you can get another game together and write up some posts on it.
Completely unrelated, and please let me know (at least in a comment) your take on this… do you know about the 1-18-08 (AKA “Cloverfield”) trailer for an unnamed movie? It’s said it might be a film adaptation for The Call of Cthulhu (just a rumor at this point). With my luck, it’ll be yet another P.O.S. Godzilla movie, but are you as insanely excited as I am?

Actually, if we a assume that Eomier is a “Germanic” name, then that spelling would suggest the name “eyo-meer”. The “i before e” in German is always an “i” sound, and “e before i” is always an “e” sound.
hmm.. I honestly do not remember the scene where one of the characters picks his nose and starts to eat it, only to realize that he failed his ‘pick stealthily’ roll and was seen by another character, who was laughing his ass off.
Need to go back and see what else I missed.
OK sarcasm aside, that was cool of him to draw that up.. and I LOVED the DnD campaign write up. Thank you for that. It really inspired me to write up the campaign I have been running. It’s a lot of fun to try and put the adventure down into that format. It has also helped me in forming a full storyline and world for my players. Good Stuff.

I dunno what the movie you posted is, but the Cthulhu movie is already out – http://www.cthulhuthemovie.com/

To me, the spelling always looked French. In this case, it would be pronounced “eyo-mi-eh”. (Accent on the “O”.)
Shamus, are still playing DD? If yes, you could at least put up a recording. I sure there will be some suckers.. er, enthusiasts who will write a transcription for it.
