Work

This week I made another caching change to reduce latency, got rid of an unnecessary redirect, did some more work on saving pages, and then switched to ripping out a few prototype features and implementing “real” replacements (which’ll be the focus of next week too):

Maybe in the future we’ll have a greater connection between GOV.UK email subscriptions and GOV.UK accounts: for example, being able to log in with a password (rather than a magic link) to manage your subscriptions, or having your subscriptions follow you if you change the email address of your account.

Books

Gaming

This week marked the end of the England chapter of my Call of Cthulhu campaign. The party disrupted a giant cult ritual in rural Essex. A police zeppelin was involved. The zeppelin was ripped open by giant flying monsters. It subsequently blew up. Very pulpy.

Next time we’ll be having a one-shot of Godbound, so I can have some fun running a throw-away high-level fantasy adventure.

RPG Blog

This week I published a review of Izirion’s Enchiridion of the West Marches, a sourcebook for West Marches style play I kickstarted earlier this year.
