A Social Experiment

Well, it’s nothing all that elaborate. This is more just a test case of a post to see who or how many accounts will post this to the blue-bird stream. Ideally, it will be two: this site’s primary and another. Feel free to read other posts and pages on this site to know who else to expect.

If this works as I hope, both accounts should realize a fair split of the potential traffic from and to the blue-bird streams. If it doesn’t work, goodbye plugin(s) — and the search for another automated approach will continue.

Social experiment aside, the choices are still open regarding what sort of content I should consider for the site. There is the #dungeon23 content, an excellent means to generate consistent posts or story hints about the adventures of Alex, Aerilon, Old Jeb, and Elenia.

There is also the option to use both resources and draw from each to improve the other. A good fantasy-based story can always use a dungeon as a setting.

The adventure continues with six rooms drafted for #dungeon23 in my analog journal.

dungeon23

An interesting idea came across my bluebird stream the other day — #dungeon23; to the best of my understanding, is to create a dungeon room a day using the rooms from each month to build a level. Ultimately, this will make a “mega-dungeon” to be used as one sees fit.

That sounds great; I’ll give it a try. I’m three days in and on pace!

Now, there are several different variations that are already popping up all over the blue bird and I imagine elsewhere although I am only really following the #dungeon23 hashtag there.

My variation is to create dungeon geomorphs with the idea of creating a new geomorph for six days and then randomly generating a layout of those six geomorphs on the seventh day. The idea of randomly developing a dungeon or environment scene has always intrigued me, which may be a great way to create these scenes.

As I continue to diverge here, when I say scenes, think something along the lines as I need to create some background for a novel I am writing (or some may say, including myself, pretending to write).

Now that I have whet your appetite, I hope to continue providing some exciting designs for #dungeon23. I’d also like to generate some interest in a story about a young ranger that may be a mage, a wizard of questionable origins, an old warrior not quite past his prime, and an unusual half-elven waif rescued along the way.

Come along; let’s have an adventure.

A return to the world of blogging and other wonderful digital dominion ideals. The (new) home of “Reistache,” an online gamer and tabletop gaming fan. I’ll make my way into this realm of entertainment and like-minded hobbyists. Exploring. Adding. Sharing.
