Dwimmermount-Related News

I've got a couple of pieces of Dwimmermount-related news to pass along for those of you who care:

1. A very rough draft of the first level is now available to all backers of the Kickstarter. It's basically a first pass in prettying up the notes I use in my home campaign. As the weeks wear on, it'll be expanded and clarified, but here's the chance to see it at an early stage. Both portions of level 2 (since it's divided into two "halves," each accessible by a different means from level 1) will be made available in a similar state between now and early next week. Additional rough drafts will follow in the weeks between now and the end of the funding period.

2. As I did last week, I'll be running a Google+ session tomorrow evening between 9pm and 12am EST. I have several outstanding invites to this session that I haven't yet heard back from, but I anticipate there will be one or two spaces open to newcomers. I'll know more tomorrow, but, if that's the case, I'd like to choose to fill those spaces with backers, as a thank you for helping to support this project. I'll have more details tomorrow on this, but I wanted to let people know now. I should also add that I'll be doing this every Friday night for the foreseeable future, so, even if tomorrow night isn't possible (or you're not selected -- after all, there are already over 300 backers), there will be further opportunities.

Thanks!

  1. I looked at the Kickstarter page, but I can't find these notes you refer to. Are they still be uploaded somewhere?

    1. Look at Update #4 and follow the instructions there. You need to log in with the email address that you used to make your pledge.

  2. Good deal James. I think I'll be getting in on this. It will be the first time I get involved with Kickstarter. Looking forward to it.

  4. Hmm, I enter the password and get sent to the right page, but it's just blank white. I turned off AdBlocker and NoScript and it's still just white.

    1. OK, got it. Website apparently added yet another script which NoScript didn't like.

  5. For backers, how do we indicate interest in playing in G+ sessions with you? I saw the Kickstarter update about the players spreadsheet, but that seems to be about wanting to find other groups to play Dwimmermount with.

    1. There will be a way to do that tomorrow. Just hang tight till then, since this is all very new to me and I want to be able to give as many people a chance to participate as I can (though, obviously, with 300+ backers already, giving everyone a chance will be impossible).

  6. When or where do I (should I have?) selected LL or ACKS?

    Thanks,

    1. That's something you can decide at the time the Kickstarter ends. You'll be contacted then and asked which version of the book you'd like.

  7. Hope it's okay to ask such a question here: Might we expect to see any Strangers from strange lands show up in the setting?
