We ran long this week, but there was just too much good information, and too many voice mails that had been missed with the unique situations the last few weeks. Chocked full of great gaming goodness for you, though!

In this week’s adventure style we dig into playing in a war-torn adventure, whether actually in the war or just having the war going on around you and what special challenges and opportunities that brings.

We also had Episode 5 of the Gamer Traveler on this week, with a visit to Delft and the Dutch Countryside.
Since it’s such a long show, I’ll stop rambling and get right to the notes:

• The finalists have been announced for the Magic The Gathering Great Designer Search
• Denzil asked about an “Add this podcast to Juice” button on our homepage. I don’t think that’s possible, although I wish it were…. Does anyone know any differently?
• New podcast - Villain Talk
• October issue of the Geek Gazette was canceled, but the November issue will be out as planned
• Daughter of the Sun is now available as a weekly podcast!
• From Tom - Eragon Trailer
• Tom also wanted us to know about some new Dragonlance stuff - particularly the original adventures being released for d20. For this and other dragonlance stuff, visit the unofficial Dragonlance website at http://www.dlnexus.com and the official site at http://www.dragonlance.com
• Tallon created an adventure called the Crimson Carnival about a scary clown.
• Ultimate Gaming Table to go up on eBay November 12…

As promised - this week is a different breed! We did the show live over SkypeCast and that proved to provide quite a few challenges. Please forgive some of the noise that crept into the episode towards the end.

This is mostly a Q&A session that answers the questions raised over at UnCon in a round-table style format with the 8 or 10 listeners that showed up this time. We decided we will be doing these live shows again, though the format’s likely to change to something more standard and . . .aw heck. . . go listen to the podcast. You’ll get the answers there.

Oh - and adding to the fun - the ghost of Stevie Ray Vaughn joined us for a little while. You’ll have to listen to the bloopers to hear what he had to say, though.
