It's that time of year again. Time to go see the family, try our best to limit conversations as much as possible, and extort our family members for gifts and food. What a wonderful time of the year. Let's waste it by arguing about how to stat up Gandolf in D&D or whether Drizzit can be good and a drow or whatever D&D people talk about nowadays!

Unrelated to TG, but has anyone seen Galavant? Looks like a really funny show from what I've seen and I think a lot of people here would like the show.

Simian_Prime posted:Planning an Xmas themed adventure based around turning Santa's abandoned workshop into a dungeon. What system? Also, I wouldn't be surprised if that's been done before. Not that that should stop you, it's just a thought.

What would be another interesting Christmas themed TG game? I can see a Golden Sky Stories game being pretty appropriate for the holiday.

I suppose I should answer my question now that I'm on the receiving end. Originally, I'd skim a book, if that. I was a "learn by doing" guy. Since the worked well for me for a long time, I never questioned it. It's one of the main reasons I can run so many games in so many systems: I didn't read outside the basic of basics and I didn't plan. After that surprisingly large response of "we read," I decided to start reading some. It's helped out so far, but it is time consuming. It helped that I had two 6 hour bus rides with nothing to do, but it is harder to fit into a normal schedule. So, in summary, used to never do anything other than skim, but now I try to read things when I get the chance.

paradoxGentleman posted:I kind of dig the idea of stories set in a tabletop store, maybe following a group of players both in their lives in the game then outside of it. I think Quick Star!! is literally that.

King of Tokyo is pretty legit, though.

Nuns with Guns posted:This Christmas I got a physical copy of the FATE Accelerated rules for me to flip through as a stocking-suffer and I'm going to do a pdf trade with a friend for Double Cross the minute she finally decides if she wants Cold City/Hot War or Technoir This might go without saying, but read all the rules for GMing and creating/running scenarios. TBZ lives and dies by how the GM sets things up, IMO. It's very different from most trpgs in how this goes.

paradoxGentleman posted:I have never seen it marketed to anybody, let alone children. Fair point. Let me revise: We are a group of adults who still consume media thought to be in the realm of children?

I was just trying to make a joke from the get go. Didn't mean to offend.
