The Dread Gazebo and other things I don't know.

mercredi 8 avril 2015

So, I don't play D&D or other Pencil & Paper RPGs. Just something I've never managed to get into.



Yet, Fantasy Munchkin is full of jokes that tie into various fantasy tropes - many of which I get, but many of which I don't.



An off-hand comment about a Gazebo on the Facebook page for my FL-ishGS forced me to Google "D&D Gazebo". I've seen the Munchkin card and never put much thought into it... but this comment seemed out of no where, so I knew there had to be more to it. Reading up on Eric's adventure was amazingly funny and something I could totally see happening. I'm glad I got to share in that story - and now the Munchkin Obsession with the Dread Gazebo makes all of the sense.



So - a thought occurs to me. There are something like seven million different Munchkin cards floating around out there. I know your plate is full, but it'd be awesome to see a "Card of the Week" type thing where you take a card from any set and do a short write-up on what that card is. Now, now, I know that having to explain the joke ruins the joke for many people - but with 13 different themed games across a myriad of genres, there's sure to be some jokes that everyone doesn't get.



It might be kind of neat if you were to do this as a contest-like thing. Let folks submit their own articles about individual cards, then, each week, you can comb through and pick a winner to post - then you could ship that winner a small prize pack (couple of promos, maybe a Munchkin blank with a special rule for that winner, whatever). I don't know if this would be more or less work than actually doing a small write-up each week yourself, but it could be pretty entertaining either way.



Just a thought.
