Sometimes I play TTRPGs, more often I run them, less often I write them.

Responsible for inflicting 'Pop Goes The Weasel' for Call of Cthulhu on the world, with Rewind - A 1980s Anthology also now available
Very happy to make this annoucement. Rewind is now available on DriveThruRPG

Rewind is a 1980s movie-themed Anthology Campaign, centered around the dead end town of Butcher Creek. For up to 5 players, Rewind leads 5 groups of Investigators through adventures themed around 1980s movie classics
Rewind - A 1980s Anthology - Chaosium | Miskatonic Repository | DriveThruRPG
There's Magic in these shelves!  Make it a Rewind night! It's Friday night.  The carpets are sticky, there's a smell of stale popcorn in the air, and the hum of ceiling-hung CRT TVs playing new releas...

Have seen a few threads of unhinged RPG takes this weekend. Seems like fun, so I'll join in... (thread)

So much this. My best ever performance as GM was a game of Alien where I BARELY spoke. The players took their hidden objectives, made factions , and I sat back, gently stoking the flames when needed. Had a couple of false ends where I nearly called time and moved on, but they kept striking gold
10) Sometimes, when you are running a game as a GM, the most powerful thing you can do is shut up and let your players interact.

Once sold a lottery ticket to The Krankies
Reskeet with your most minor celebrity interaction.

Living in Edinburgh around festival time means doing that thing where you think you recognise a friend, & your face starts making “hello friend” moves, then you realise you only know Rob Brydon off the telly and then rudely re-blank your face.
Reskeet with your most minor celebrity interaction.

(I've got dozens, years in film& tv but):

I once gave directions to Bucks Fizz after they pulled up beside me in Chatham in Jimmy Savile's gold Rolls Royce. Cheryl Baker rolled down the passenger window and shouted "Oi mate, where's Dale Street".

Absolutely buzzing to be able to repost this. I've been a giant fan of the @miskatonicplayhouse.com for a good long while, and being able to watch a playthrough of something I wrote from them is just beyond incredible. Watch this then watch all of the rest of their stuff because they're just great
The Matinée 'Pop Goes The Weasel' is LIVE 🎥 . . . Check out Chris Stewart's tale of 1970s tech vs the mythos.

Tremendous surpise notification on my phone to end the week. The lovely XPLoveCat has reviewed my scenario Pop Goes the Weasel. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_Qk...

This is one for the Keepers so spoilers abound, but I couldn't be happier with this feedback. Go watch! Then watch more of her videos!

Boarded my flight, loaded up with Call of Cthulhu podcasts for inspiration to finish my draft of my scenario inspired by Repo Man. What comes up on the in flight system? Plate of shrimp!

With one day until a transatlantic flight, the ritual begins. Summon the podcast downloads!
