Three years, and I’m still sort of here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For various reasons, my personal accounting of years begins in October, not January, but the turning of the calendar seems to be a more commonly-accepted time for annual recaps (and I did actually spin up this thing in January 2023, so it fits in this case).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2023 was a year of heavy posting (due in part to New Toy Syndrome), with 126 entries. I slowed down heavily in 2024, with only 51 posts, and none during football season (while I give no shits about football, my day job means it cuts into my fall gaming time quite heavily). 2025 has been slightly better for content, with 106 posts – though that’s a bit artificially inflated due to my participation in Character Creation Challenge 2025<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Competing demands, low energy levels, and the scheduling complexities of gaming in middle age have kept me from getting in more than a handful of Kaserne on the Borderlands<\/a> sessions last year. I did start Somewhere West of Light<\/a> as a side campaign, though I’ve done a lousy job of keeping up with session logs. I also attempted to start a Discord chat-based Shadowrun<\/em> 3e campaign for my wife and her Tumblr bestie, but that does not seem to have gotten any traction. As a player, my gaming was limited to a handful of D&D 5e sessions with NLP and the one-shots I was able to get at RiverCityCon<\/a> and CharCon<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As I’ve remarked<\/a> before<\/a>, one of the main sources of content here has been a 30-year backlog of various gaming-related things that I’ve posted elsenet or never actually released for public consumption before. With the exception of a handful of pieces that I’m saving for specific times or occurrences, that well is now dry. Going forward, almost everything here will be new content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I did turn on commenting a few months ago, mainly to enable my players to provide their perspectives on session writeups. If the spam moderation requirements become too onerous, I’ll flip the switch again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Three years, and I’m still sort of here.
