GURPS Day Summary Dec 30 – Jan 5, 2017
Welcome to the second year of GURPSDay, and this is the first GURPSDay post of 2017. Let’s make this a great year.
How? Two action items: post more, recruit more. It’s really that simple.
Below you can find the blog activity from the last seven days. 47 so far as we start the year with our list of 73 blogs.
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.
