Thanks, don't know how I missed that.

Hey Jim,

Towards the end of the episode you mention that you recruit players from flyers in grocery and convenience stores.  Any example of what you put on the flyers?  Do you mention Old School D&D, does that even mean anything in Finland?  Or do you mention something more generic. 

A scan of one of your flyers would be most appreciated.

We just had a real FLGS just open up in my neck of the woods, and I really want to see if I can get something going over there.

I'm a 40 year old divorced father of two, I like puppies, sunsets and walks on the...whoops wrong forum. 

I live in the hot sweaty suburban jungle that is Central Florida.  I originally began gaming back in 1982 with Moldvay Basic set, moved on to AD&D and also played some Twilight 2000 and BattleTech Minis.  I gamed throughout high school, but then quite when everyone I knew either went into the military or moved away to college.  I was out of the hobby until about four years ago when I rediscovered a bunch of my old gaming material stored at my folks house.  Since then I've been on a tear to get reacquainted with the games I used to play. 

I'm definitely not interested in the newer editions of D&D, 4ed and even 3.0-3.5 are just not my thing, though Microlite 74 holds a fascination for me.  I like OD&D or 0e as it's called because it's so flexible, Swords & Wizardry for the same reason I'm also interested in Mutant Future and even a few story based hippie games like Spirit of the Century and Changeling.

Currently I'm working on a book of Fortean cryptids to drop into a campaign.

Howdy Jim,

I really liked hearing you on RPG Circus.  I love the boards and blogs where the the Old School congregate, but I drive a lot and podcasts help me fill the time in the car.

Anyway I'd love to hear you on a podcast more often, do you think you'll be back for another go?  Also how did you get on in the first place, do you know one of the guys? 

And finally I feel your pain about living in Orlando.  I live about sixty miles East of Orlando and it only started getting out of the high 80's this past weekend.
