Thirsty Thursday...

...it's the thirstiest.

Have you guys heard about the 1.2 million dollars that was raised by OOTS? I mean, that's crazy right? Here is a link to the kickstarter campaign.

Let me start by saying congratulations to the author/artist over there at the Order of the Stick. That is an achievement that most of us mortals can only dream about. To have something that you made, and nurtured for the last 10 years (since 2003) grow into something so substantial like that is amazing. As a content creator it is one of my life-long goals to have something that has a fraction of the success that OOTS has had.

I have recently gotten back into Dungeons and Dragons and so I have been enjoying this comic ever since I discovered it a few days ago. The humor is spot on and the art style really grows on you after only a couple of strips. It has made me want to dig out my old strip and start making them again, but then I remember how hard that was for me the first time and I decide to just focus on my blog.

Anyway, if you have not heard of OOTS or you don't have any idea what I'm talking about when I say webcomic then you owe it to yourself to check them out here. I would like to finish by saying Happy Thursday everybody!

  1. If you're getting back into D&D, you should take a look at Pathfinder by Paizo. When WotC announced the complete overhaul that is 4e, Paizo took 3.5 and streamlined/improved on it (essentially a 3.7e, as it were).

  2. I'm actually DM'ing a weekly 4E game now. I played the original D&D in the early 90's and AD&D after that came out. Then I stopped until just a few years ago when 4E came out. I'm into miniatures and was really happy with their inclusion in D&D 4th Edition. I have some of the 3.5 books but I have never really played 3.5 D&D.
