Back from the dead again. Ironically I’ve been completely consumed with activity this past six months because I recently moved to a new house which put me in walking distance of a FLGS. First day I go by, I get pulled into a brand new Shadowrun campaign. And at the very same time my regular gaming groups picked up the slack they had been dragging.
So, fittingly enough, my modivation to write about the lack of gaming fell off sharply once I was getting my gaming fix. But with GenCon coming up (and my attendance being more certain this year around) the time is ripe to try again.
So we’re going to lead off with some actual plays of various games and hopefully move into a full show before too long.

The cast is still being worked on. We won’t be attending PAX 09, unfortunitally, but it’ll give me more time to put the finishing touches on the beginning of the show.
In different news, I acquired several new RPGs recently and look forward to trying them out. The two newest are the 20th Anniversary edition of Shadowrun and Cthulhutech. Both are futuristic action games with investigation elements and should be a good change of pace.

With the site and forums placed in their basic forms work on the podcast is moving ahead well. We’ll be recording the main sections this weekend and everything should continue to be on schedule for the release at the end of the month.
The forums and blog page will be changing little by little over time as I experience with different skin settings and images until we arrive at a lasting set up.

Hello everyone, welcome to Gamer Dead Zone, a community focused on roleplaying games, gaming, and connecting like minded individuals.
What we ask is, in short: Are you alone? Now, there may be other people around you but are there other gamers?
Sometime ago I realized that there was nobody else who gamed in my area. Now that ended up not being exactly correct that was how it felt from day to day: like I was the only one.
In typical gamer fashion I quickly made the idea into a fantastic concept: a dead zone of gaming where I and others like me wandered the wastelands, searching for allies and resources. In a burst of original thought I decided to run with the idea hince: Gamer Dead Zone.
This site, and the podcast it’s built around, focus on gamers and the games they want to play while giving them new ways to connect and actually get to the gaming.
So come close around the fire as the sun sets on the endless wastes, take a hand full of dice, and let’s game.
