Three seasons now. Third season's being released. I didn't get on very well with the art styles, the comic books. Otherwise, I would have bought those. They just don't look very nice. But I do like the style that they have on the animated TV series. I'm shocked to see that you actually watched that, Russ.

So what would you like me to talk about? D&D or not D&D? Okay. Well, one of the things I saw online was from Ben Robbins at his blog, AskLudy.com. Mr. Westmarches. Yes, Mr. Westmarches, and also Mr. Microscope, as you might know him. He's put together a very interesting take on... how we should be running role-playing games.

So it's like a... Well, the word manifesto is one that I use with a certain amount of caution because in these later days, that might imply to some people that he's their... like making pipe bombs and so forth, which is very much, I'd like to say, not the case.

Well, maybe we read different things, which is a very reasonable way to go about it. But yeah, he's worked together with people like Caroline Hobbs, Mark Hobbs, Joe Wendays and Ace Hamilton to produce a Principles of Ground Table, which is a pretty short document.

Yeah. Yeah. And also how games can help understand the world better and so forth. It's big on concepts, light on specifics at the moment, but I thought it was something that could maybe stir some conversation and so forth. Yeah.
