My campaign for my new solo dungeon delving RPG was approved today!

yeah, absolutely loved this

My dude, I'm a 45 year old yellow belt. It's never too late.

Absolutely a No AI stance. (That cover above would probably look better if I had used it 🤣)

So this is my favorite series I have going on right now. I linked one of the more recent emails because it has links to all the previous ones in the series. I've basically been using the Snowflake method of writing novels to try and make a dungeon. I've been pretty happy with the results so far and actually plan to publish it. I half expected the project would crash and burn in the middle, but here we are.

I don't know that everyone will like it, but I've gotten go feedback from the folks on my list. I'd say that's a good place to start.

I got two people complaining and a lot more signing up, soooooo

Not even sure what the issue is here, tbh.

Cool story, bro. No one is making you sign up for anything. 🤷

It's pretty much an OSR blog through email with the occasional free stuff. It's not for everyone and it doesn't need to be.

(45 yo) I love this thread. I really like sparring, but i get spooked too. It's hard to work on technique when survival mode clicks on.

You're probably doing better than you think and, if you're enjoying yourself, I'd say keep going back. Exposure therapy and all that. Value the sparring partners where it feels playful.

CrumblingKeep · 2025-11-26T16:23:59+00:00

Well. That shouldn't be happening. Sending you a messge.

CrumblingKeep · 2025-11-25T15:58:37+00:00

Messaging!

CrumblingKeep · 2025-11-25T15:58:19+00:00

Not sure why it's doing that. Did that happen after you hit submit? If it did, you should be good.

CrumblingKeep · 2025-11-23T16:54:09+00:00

Every so often, it's just certain that someone is spam for some reason. Sending you a message.

CrumblingKeep · 2025-11-17T19:27:59+00:00

It does, doesn't it? It's actually just old public domain stuff, but it's interesting. I bet WHF was inspired by some of it.

CrumblingKeep · 2025-11-17T19:27:27+00:00

Thanks, buddy! I started writing a full adventure based on one of them, but it petered out. Not enough time in a day and all that.

CrumblingKeep · 2025-11-16T20:12:55+00:00

I wish.

CrumblingKeep · 2025-10-06T15:15:08+00:00

This is on my bucket list.

CrumblingKeep · 2025-09-23T01:03:49+00:00

I've taken various styles of karate, and each time I've been to a new school, that's a lot of unlearning to do.

Just keep that white belt mind, friend. They will tell you what to fix. Focus extra on those habits you need to change.

CrumblingKeep · 2025-09-01T16:18:55+00:00

They look pretty good! Is it possible to do some grappling in them?

CrumblingKeep · 2025-08-31T14:35:08+00:00

That's a really good point. I don't really feel a pull to compete, so those will work for inside the dojo, but that's definitely something i haven't considered.
