The Third Heat (Part III): Is Character Building the Fourth Heat

New Feature

I would love to actually talk about the third heat today and explain what the hell I even mean by that, but I can't, because too many smart people asked me whether character building is a kind of gameplay and whether it would therefore count as some kind of heat of its own. Might it not be the fourth heat. Spoiler alert: yes, but no.

Note: Because I'm a little behind and will be releasing a lot of content in the next couple of days, I am putting this right on the front page. That way, I can avoid backing up my content pipeline and won't end up sending out notifications twice in short order.

Two Updates: Angry Games Shop Fixed and Deep Dive Bonus Live Event

New Update

Two quick updates... then a more detailed check-in tomorrow with content to follow during the week.

The Angry Games Shop is Back Online; Have a Coupon for an Apology

I have fixed the issues with my shop at https://angry.games/shop. That's where you can buy my book, Game Angry, in physical and digital format as well as a few other little bits of bonus D&D content I put out a couple years back.

If you tried to buy my book in the past couple of weeks and it couldn't calculate shipping, it is working now if you're still interested. I'm deeply sorry for the inconvenience and the time it took me to fix it. It was not a simple issue and neither my hosting provider nor the US postal service were any kind of help at all.

If you want to try your order again, use the discount code ITSUX at checkout for 10% off your order by way of apology.

Actually, that code will work for anyone for anything. Seriously. Go ahead. Take 10% off whatever.

P.S.: That code isn't "it sucks," as a commentary on my book, but rather "IT sucks," as a commentary on how much I hate dealing with tech support bullshit, especially when hosting services I pay way too much for are basically useless to provide any help at all.

Upcoming Angry Deep Dive Events

As promised, I will be hosting two The Angry GM Deep Dive Live Events for Angrican-tier supporters on Discord, with the recording made available within a view days to the supporters who couldn't attend live. I've even decided what the topics will be. However, there is a slight schedule change, which I can manage due to having nailed down the dates I'll be out of town for my cousin's wedding.

There will be no live event this Wednesday, September 16. I'm sorry to push things off a week.

On Wednesday, September 23 at 8:00, PM ET, I will be hosting the first Deep Dive.

On Wednesday, September 30, at 8:00 PM ET, I will be hosting the second Deep Dive.

The two topics will be: Investigative Scenes For Adventures With Mysteries In Them and "Portraying" Nonplayer Characters in Social Challenges. I don't know which will happen which week just yet. It depends on some outside factors.

As I said, I'll have a better update for you tomorrow. I know I'm still in a very slow recovery. Unfortunately, I am dealing with an ongoing health issue that suddenly became an issue last week. I apologize, by the way, for bailing suddenly during the post-recording Slapchat hangout due to an unexplained emergency. I'm okay.

Anyway, that's all from me today.
