There's loot to be had, both from those that blog and those that comment on blogs. Four participating blogs each have a copy of Swords & Wizardry Complete in PDF to give away. You'll have to find them on your own. (try using the blogroll over at 2,000 Coppers to get blog updates).
There's lots more loot than that, much of it to be awarded in a random nature. I'll update the list in the next post. Suffice to say, there is some really cool
