If it's October it must be horror, and this time it's an all-new collection of games and supplements based on the Cthulhu mythos:

Bundle of Tentacles 6 )


As I've said on previous occasions, too much Call of Cthulhu in the eighties and nineties left me a bit "monstered out" but this looks like quite a good deal, with some interesting ideas on settings and themes that may be worth trying. It's also starting off pretty cheaply, which can't really be bad. And looking at the Apocetuhulhu rules for about five minutes gave me one fun idea for a campaign (which I'll pass on since I probably won't run it myself) - The Postman with a Cthulhoid apocalypse as background instead of nuclear war.

I had a late lunch in a pancake place today - I was hungry and most of their meals are cheap on Mondays, so I thought why not.

When it was time to pay the bill the waiter told me that someone at another table, who left while I was eating, had already paid for me. And since I barely glanced that way I have no idea if it was someone I know (or who recognized me e.g. from my picture on this blog or my fanfic) who wanted to treat me, someone who thought I looked a bit impoverished (there's a small tear on the sleeve of the jacket I was wearing which I haven't got round to repairing or replacing), someone who was just in a good mood, or a case of mistaken identity. And since it's the first time in several months I've eaten there, and probably won't go back for another month or two, it's unlikely I'll ever find out.

Definitely not complaining, but it did feel a little weird....
