GURPS Day Summary Nov 4 – Nov 10, 2016

Thursday is GURPSDay, and if you’re recovering from post-election hangover (for whatever reason), then what you really need to do is sit down for a nice tall glass of GURPS. Fortunately, I can fix you right up.

Of the nearly 50 posts this morning, roughly half were from three bloggers – Pseudonym, Mailanka, and Generic Universal Eggplant, who are firing on all cylinders.

Below you can find the blog activity from the last seven days.

Over the last week as of 10:30pm there have been 55 GURPS-related posts from our list of 67 blogs that have popped up on the radar screen.

Not every blog posts about GURPS every week, but some are ridiculously prolific! The list is randomized, so different bloggers will be highlighted at the top of the post each week.

As always, if you’re interested in having your blog consolidated here, navigate over to The Instructions Page and drop me a line.
