This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

He posted this on his blog way back in 2013:

I've pulled back from the handful of forums where I participate as well; those are an even worse time-sink than blogging, and with far less to show for the effort.

I'm guessing that feeling grew.

I understand his sentiment, but I really miss his blog. His blog and his Flashing Blades site on Obsidian Portal (le-ballet-de-l-acier) gave me so much useful information for my Honor+Intrigue campaign. I'm deeply in his debt.

Unfortunately since Obsidian Portal did their big revamp, all their web sites look like shit on my browser which is a sort of backwards consolation for Black Vulmea not updating his Ballet site.

Quote from: estar;808700The entire content of Dwimmermount (sans art and the name Dwimmmermount) is under the Open Game License. And there is a trademark license for Dwimmermount itself.

When things went south with the fulfillment of the Kickstarter, I was among several people called in to see if there is a path forward. I was there because of the cartography I did. During this process I pushed strongly to see if there was a way to get the whole thing under a open license. My sentiment was if the community was going to bail James out of his project we should get something back more than just the project. I thought the fairest thing was to put the whole of the text under the open game license (along with completing the project).

Autarch deserves a lot of credit for getting this beast done and done well.

you know normally if somebody suddenly decided to make something open i would say its stupid but that was pretty good reasoning auctualy
If your having tier problems i feel bad for you son i got 99 problems but caster supremacy aint 1.

Apology\'s if there is no punctuation in the above post its probably my autism making me forget.
