Right then fuckers. #APSWAP time. You know the drill.
A lot of AP creators don’t seem to watch APs. Some of you have told me you don’t. That’s no good. Let’s change that. Give me your AP, I’ll watch/listen, rate and review. Your watch one of mine in return.
Hit me.

Are you more of a deep planner, or fly by the seat of your pants GM?
I find I go in cycles. I'll spend two weeks planning out all the details for an adventure, and then we'll spend a month adventuring in another dimension because I was making choices based on vibes 😂

Having run multiple oneshots and even campaigns with multiple groups, I found this article a great read.
Running the same adventure twice might seem repetitive. One author argues it is actually a powerful technique for mastering the craft of GMing. It reveals flaws in design you might otherwise miss.
Genre Police: Catch It On A Re-Run
Running the same roleplaying game one-shot for different groups? It's a masterclass in GMing. Learn how re-running a scenario teaches vital skills in design, pacing, refinement, and adapting to group dynamics.
