Treasure Tables is on hiatus as of December 13th, 2007 -- after two years of daily posts, I needed a break. If you're looking for GMing material, I have two recommendations: the hundreds of posts in TT's archives, and my new project, the multi-author GMing blog Gnome Stew. Happy GMing! -- Martin

Blogging for GMs, Day 20

Thu. October 20, 2005 

It’s day 20 of the Blogging for GMs project — here’s today’s post:

• Cayzle has contributed Torture in role play games.

Cayzle’s post is actually from a few days ago, and we must have crossed wires somewhere — I only just learned about it, in the comments to “Mature Themes in RPGs.” In any case, it’s a good post — Cayzle considers torture in RPGs from several standpoints, with examples of how it can be handled in a mature way. Thanks, Cayzle!

    (There’s no way for me to leave a comment on your site, Cayzle, or I’d do that.) :)

    I like that you mix paractical advice with links to examples, and you manage to cover a lot of ground in a relatively short post. Good stuff.

    Plus you said “bowdlerize,” which I had to go and look up. ;)

    Thanks for the feedback, Martin!

    But no comments on the site? LOL! That’s ’cause at Cayzle’s Wemic Site we handcraft our screeds the old-fashioned way … with home-made html and lots of TLC! None of this new-fangled Web-logging software or fancy-pants RSS feeds for us, no sirree bob! The only thing we cascade is our dishes!

    :-)

    Seriously, I *do* manually post comments that people e-mail me, or in this case, that people leave in others’ blogs! “What’s wrong with good-old e-mail feedback?” ask the happy happy elves who cobble together Cayzle’s Wemic Site!

    No argument there. ;) I mentioned it only because one of my goals with this project is to send traffic — and commenters — to contributors’ sites.

    I’ve had hand-coded, manually-updated sites on and off for the past 6 years or so (since 2003, 3d6.org), and after starting TT I’ve discovered that I really, really like the automation. ;)
