Time Marches on. See what I did there? Comedy f$&%ing gold!

It’s a new month and that means it’s update time again. And that means it’s time for my traditional opening speech wherein I explain why I’ve been a bit of a non-entity and talk about my catching up and s$&% like that. But do any of you really care? I know I don’t. Not anymore.

Here’s the thing: I’ve been sick, off and on, and doing the semi-yearly doctor bit where all my treatments get adjusted. And Tiny’s had some job crap that has wrecked our schedules and routines. Doesn’t matter. I’m fine. On the mend. Tiny’s fine. Biscuit’s fine. This is how my years always start. Don’t sweat it.

Articles are back on schedule. Every Wednesday, I push a new article to Patreon for you Early Access folks — with a Proofreadaloud — and I push the previous week’s early access article to TheAngryGM.com. Not counting today. Or next week. Depending on whether you’re an Early Access folk or not. But I’ll get to that.

For those in the know, Theme Pack’s coming as soon as I can get it out. I’m working on it.

Otherwise, continue to be patient with me on the one-off stuff. I know some of you are waiting for contact on this or that thing. I’m getting there. Thanks.

This ain’t a brush-off, by the way. Just sick of talking about personal s$&%. I just want to get back to cranking content.

Which brings me to…

March 2022 Angry Content and Event Calendar

March is one of those five Wednesday months. Since I put out four articles a month and since they go out on Wednesdays, that means there’s more Wednesday’s than articles. Which is why Patrons don’t have an article today.

And why Non-Patrons won’t have an article next week.

Beyond that, here’s what to expect this month.

Coming Soon: The Tension Dice Kickstarter Campaign

If you’ve been following me for a while, you’ve probably heard about my Tension Pool system. Or my Time Pool system. Or whatever I’m calling it this week. Because it’s gone through a lot of iterations and revisions. And several explanations. Which I ain’t going to rehash now.

Point is, it’s done. Stick a fork in it. I’ve hit the final, definitive, completely finished version of the Tension Pool rules. And I’m going to release them. But I don’t like to do s$&% small. So, instead of just publishing a rules PDF thing, I’m going to get some custom-made Tension Dice, package them with the rules, and sell them. How’s that sound?

I’m still working on the details, but if you want to stay in the loop — or if you just want to know what the f$&% I’m talking about out — check out:

The Official Angry Games Tension Dice Kickstarter Campaign Announcement Page.

And really, that’s all I’ve got this month for news.

As always, if you’re a Patron reading this on my Patreon page and want to propose a topic or ask a question for the Live Chat, post a comment.

Otherwise, thanks for continuing to read my s$&%. Thanks for being patient with me. Thanks for all the great feedback about the Let’s Start a Simple Homebrew Campaign series. I’m glad you all like it. Thanks for your support. Thanks for your encouragement. Thanks for stopping by. And thanks for breaking my cow lamp.
