Just had my case for membership of the rpgbloggers.com network approved, so woot! is me. Sadly the first of my posts which was visible was an abortive mobile blogging attempt via BlogWritter app on my 3GS. Damn unintuitive GUI!! I've just worked out that if you're in the "New Post" screen you can save a post in draft format just by tapping "Back". Lesson learned...
"What was your first post then!" you ask
It was an instructable on how to make a scroll case from a Pringles can.
Let me explain, I'm looking through my old copies of Dungeon to get a few scenarios to link together to form a new plotline for my campaign world The Lands of Dual and I came across the scenario "A Race Against Time" (Issue 81 Jul/Aug 2000). The scenario features a nice 3 hour timed plotline which calls for the delivery of a message in a scroll case delivered via juvenile winged snake courier. The message is the cornerstone of the scenario and will be poured over ad-infitum by the players, so I thought it would be nice to give them a nice handout to look at. The theatrics are very important for the message's punchline so I need to make a scroll case to hold the message. The campaign starts in Jan 2011 so watch-out for more posts about the make and a session report.
If my players are reading this. Don't go buying any copies of Dungeon 81 off e-bayand pre-reading the scenario. It won't help you a bit as I will have changed it by the time you get to play it.
