About Bill

I've been goofing around with RPG's since 1981, when I first purchased such games as "Top Secret", "Champions", "Traveller" and "Call of C'thulhu". Now I'm looking to get serious and start running some games, meeting new people and just generally having fun in my early retirement.

At a glance

Featured Prompts

I got started GMing...

..in 1982.

My favorite system of all Time is

Call of C'thulhu/Basic Roleplaying/D100.

When I'm not running games I'm...

I divide my time between being a dad, being a husband, volunteering at my church, being a dementia caregiver for my elderly father-in-law, running tabletop games online, and attending various and sundry conventions.

How Bill runs games

I tend to run relaxed, fun games, spiced up with a bit of horror, detective work and role playing.

Featured Prompts

I deal with rules issues by...

...asking myself "Do I want to be RIGHT or do I want to have FUN?" I always want my players and myself to have fun.

Rules are...

..merely suggestions sometimes. My focus is on having FUN and FELLOWSHIP around the table.

When it comes to voices

..I am awful at them, so therefore I really try NOT to do them and possibly offend anyone.
