Alright, I hear some people have been talking tough, shooting their mouths off about how they've been GMing tabletop games. It must be nice to have your little groupie bands of yes-men and yes-women making little life-affirming posts to stroke your ego in ways that ought to get you arrested for bestiality if, in fact, your ego were an animal of some sort, in which case it would probably a really wussy animal, like a chipmunk or this little milksop:
Okay, that is kind of cute. But unlike the puppy, you namby-pambies aren't safe from the thunder that's going to be brought down in (approximately) FOUR SHORT WEEKS! when none other than YOURS TRULY! finally returns from his exile in the alkali flats of DeKalb to reclaim his rightful place on the DM/GM/ST/S&M throne in what is likely to be the gaming event of the decade!
What: D&D 3.5, Jeremy Edition
Where: Whoever the hell wants to host it (if no takers, the fabled Basement of the Workout Pencil may be available)
When: Summer 2007
Who: First come, first served (and believe me, your asses will be SERVED!)
Why: Because I've gotta!
This is going to be a mini-series (3-5 sessions) set in an ultra-generic game world of my creation (which is most likely going to be cobbled together from more cohesive, successful game worlds, and may look suspiciously like medieval England). The focus here, as is the norm with my games, will be on RP and character development, with combat playing second fiddle (and when it does happen, it's bound to be unnecessarily dramatic). As such, I will be running an EXTREMELY stripped-down version of the D&D 3.5 rules (in other words, just the core rules with minor tweaks) to see if the engine passes muster for a storytelling-heavy game.
Consider this to be a mere taste of the real terror to come (i.e., the game I've been blabbing about on LJ but won't repeat the name of here in order to create the illusion of MYSTERY). And don't think this is going to crash and burn like all my failed online endeavors, because this time, I'll be there to enforce my edicts with mighty Polish Fists of Fury. That's right: the gauntlet has been thrown DOWN!
So, hold on to your testicles and/or ovaries, because the J-Hammer is gonna be BACK! IN! TOWN!!!
(Note that much of the bravado contained in this post is sarcasm. Jeremy neither endorses nor tolerates the use of posturing and/or thingyy statements, and is actually quite insecure about the quality of his games. There's going to be a game, though. F'real, dogg.)
