A lot of my favorites have already been listed so instead of rehashing them I thought I'd recommend two less-famous blogs that I really enjoy, both focus more on interesting setting snippets and ideas rather than rule-based stuff. The links go to my favorite post in each:

[1] Your Dungeon Is Suck.

[2] Your Forum is Suck.

This:

is my favorite gaming blog now.

I'm just about done with online D&D, the self-styled literati of the OSR have ruined it for me.

When pundit links back to his own 'blog if I find it interesting I read it but not enough to say "oh hey yeah I follow his 'blog."

Sorry for being a fun-haver.

Yeah, I'm curious what Delver means by this 'self-styled literati' stuff.  Granted that there are always folks out there who get full of themselves, but I'm not seeing a major issue.  There are tons of interesting blogs out there.

Quote from: misterguignol;527862Wow, thanks for all the support guys!

Thanks to this thread for bringing your blog to my attention.

It's been my experience as well, that the OSR not only does not hold a monopoly in pretentious opinions on RPGs, but also that the good, useful, game-table-ready stuff far outweighs the pretentiousness.

And there are even a few pretentious types (J. Mal springs to mind) whose opinions I often find enlightening, and worth reading. As a child of the 1990s, his blog led me to Clark Ashton Smith and Jack Vance, for which I'll be ever grateful.

This should be stickied.

Y'all should also check igcent.com. It's updated daily and also features a big community.

The Dungeon Dozen - tons of random tables covering all kinds of D&D stuff. Incredibly useful for plot points, etc.

The D12 charts are priceless.

Its funny, but if any thing this thread hits home to me how much I prefer forums to blogs as a medium for communication.  I became a famous blogger by accident, really; but I was always a forum geek.

I think the problem with blogs, and the reason a lot of them seem to be full of "self-styled literati" is because the very structure of the blog is hierarchical; its one guy who defines the conversation and everyone else must follow.  That's why a lot of guys who write big on blogs don't actually do so well on forums.  It turns out that they're pussies when they don't get to define the whole tone of the conversation.

I was completely and utterly unaware that you had a blog.

My experience has been so far from this.  I've found a lot more collaboration and tangential offshooting in the blog world than I have on any of them forums.  

I'll use an example from my own blog.  I posted a thing about weird familiars here, which was then expanded by another guy on another blog here.  Then, a third guy saw what we were up to and adapted and expanded the idea for an entirely different system here.

Frankly, I see a lot more actual gaming content happening on the blogs and a lot more navel-gazing about the hobby in general on forums.

I tend to see blogs and forums as distinct tools.

I use forums for asking around about stuff I want to know (e.g. "what's this book like?" or "how do you handle this particular situation?"), but it seems to me blogs are a better vehicle for posting about your creations.

However, notwithstanding the very nice synergy that tends to pop up in the OSR blogosphere (like misterguignol just illustrated), I generally feel that forums are far better equipped to handle collaborative creation endeavors. RPGnet's "setting riff" threads are a good example. The problem, of course, is the signal-to-noise ratio on most forums.

I also like it that unexpected mentions of stuff you don't know about pops up all the time on forums, one minute you're discussing combat in WFRP and the next you're reading about someone else's Traveller campain. Blogs are generally more focused; few blogs are as diverse as Jeff Rients' or Tommy Brownell's.
