GURPS Day Summary Mar 10 – Mar 16, 2017

Welcome to the second year of GURPSDay, and here’s the morning pull for you guys.

We’re currently drawing content from 81 blogs. Only 19 more to go until we’re pulling from 100! But we’ll need your help.

How? Two action items: post more, recruit more. It’s really that simple. More posters is more posts, and more interest in GURPS.

Below you can find the blog activity for as much as the script could pick up from today backwards to Jan 1, 2017. There’s a whole lotta awesome GURPS going on.

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.
