Loudest Bird Ever @ DM Summit


I left my desk, which is starting to come together to have lunch at UCI with the Comic Quest DM's.

there was this very very loud bird.


Chloe highlights her book A LOT


The DMs are all doing great & the story is progressing--Chloe, Spencer, Chris, & Camille were all there and discussed their plans for tonight. Attendance was down a little last week, so tonight may be interesting.

Also, Camille told a story about cleaning out a ketchup dispenser that was clogged with maggots that will gross me out for infinity.

Top 7 Related People to Dungeons & Dragons



I did a search on Bing and got this image on the side that listed the top seven people related to D&D.

Gary Gygax & Dave Arneson are the creators. Clearly they should be on the list.

Vin Diesel, Tim Duncan, & Stephen Colbert are all fairly popular celebrities who have talked about playing D&D in interviews.

Jon Favreau is a movie director who is very well known is some circles but likely not a house hold name like Joss Whedon or something--but still a celebrity.

Chris Pritchard is...well...a man who killed his mom for the inheretence. During the police investigation he talked about playing D&D in the North Carolina Steam Tunnels...I do not think he is very famous...his involvement with D&D is very tangential and largely seen as a blight on the history of the Worlds Greatest Game. 

I was shocked to see him on the list when there are so many better examples of D&D Related People in popular culture.

I think part of the reason might be because most of them are semi-new and don't realize that there's D&D in every direction, no matter what they decide to do.
