I've just zoomed past 50 paid games on @startplaying . Wrote a blog post to celebrate and share some numbers with you. tldr; don't quit your day job.

I'm recruiting for a number of online D&D and MoTW games - see the current list at my blog. All times UK (GMT+1). UK- and AUS-friendly times. All on @startplaying . If you fancy trying D&D, I'm a pretty good bet for a GM. #dungeonsAndDragons.

Hey! I'm a bit scared to put this out there but I just uploaded a video to youtube of me live-coding a Mandelbrot viewer in p5.js. You might like it if you're into fractals, creative coding or have ever wondered how the Mandelbrot set works.

Fancy playing D&D on Thursday nights (UK time)? . New campaign starting tonight. The campaign is Dragon of Icespire Peak and it's a great campaign if you're new to D&D or a seasoned player after a "quests, loot and dead orcs" feel. #dungeonsAndDragons.

If I run the beginner adventure, anyone want to try it out with me? Who do I know who are proper trekkies? @sammy__o1 ?.

Looking at the second edition of Star Trek Adventures RPG. Thankfully @Modiphius have not printed it as hard-to-read awkward white text on black background like the first edition. I wanted to like the first edition, but it was just unreadable. Tried several times.

Very beginner friendly, but for old hands too. I like this campaign because it's straight-up D&D with wizards and fighters and rogues fighting orcs and goblins. Oh, and a dragon. Monday: Wednesday:.Thursday:.

I'm starting three new D&D campaigns UK (GMT + 1) evening time on @startplaying. Mon, Wed and Thurs. They'll be classic high fantasy D&D, starting at level 1 and progressing to level 5 over 12 or so weekly sessions. All based on my favourite campaign Dragon of Icespire Peak.

I have a full table for my one-shot Dungeons & Dragons taster campaign tomorrow, but there are still seats available for my game on Sunday 11am UTC+1. If you fancy trying D&D to see if you like it, it's a good 2-3 hour adventure with a classic D&D feel.

Anyone have any advice for how I should go about getting a school-hours, three-day-a-week remote mentoring contract? I've worked with lots of junior and not-so-junior programmers, improved the productivity of lots of teams. I'd like to see if I can make it pay. RTs appreciated.

Free seat on my Icespire Peak D&D campaign @startplaying tomorrow morning (UK time)!. It's been silly and fun. There's a unstoppable bard with an AC/DC songbook *. A god that talks-like-a-pirate. A posh crab. * planar magic, natch. Thunder! . #dnd.

D&D in the Guardian! Not sure it really gets to the heart of how fun it is to play make-believe. Fancy trying it out? You could do worse that sign up for one of my online games. Next one-off beginners game on Wed Mar 20th:
