It’s Monday morning and you’re trying to figure if you look as dejected as everyone else in the bus/train/space shuttle?  You turn on your computer and open a bunch of application but don’t plan to do any work any time soon?  Well, spend some time checking out these links. And don’t worry about your zombie facial expression - coffee will take care of that!

Ze links

• WOTC released the new d20 documents - the game system license and (GSL) and system reference document (SRD).  I have some thoughts of this but don’t have enough space here.  Soon…
• Encounter-A-Day keeps churning out the great ideas.  This week I had fun perusing their setting seeds.
• The Gnome Stew has never tasted better. Week after week it is delicious. This week I enjoyed a serving of running super short games.  You can probably adapt the article - written with conventions in mind - for your weekly games.
• Hack/ offers a D&D 4E point buy calculator.
• Have you been pwned by Expy’s quizzes on famous dragons (Futs-Lung, Fafnir)?  You might want to read about dragons around the world.
• Critical Hits just posted the fifth installment of the Pain of Campaigning series:
• The Pain of Campaigning I: Story and Pre-Game Decisions
• The Pain of Campaigning II: Starting the Game
• The Pain of Campaigning III: The Plot Thickens
• The Pain of Campaigning IV: Put a Little Politics in it
• Pain of Campaigning V: Suitable Villains - and I also just wrote a guide to uber-villains.

Non-D&D link of the week

• Non-D&D link of the week from Mr. Gnome: the sickest pictures in gaming!
