#ConManKen - Tell me a Story, Tell me Some Lies - Two Stores Now - One for Debt and One for Assets Perhaps?

We all knew Ken would make an appearance somewhere. It seems Ken is separating his business into two entities with a shared stock of comics and games.

I was then sent this:

Just for clarification, I Jess Hunter separated my brick and mortar store (211 Games & Comics, LLC) and my online store (little monsters entertainment, LLC) into two entities in case I ever decide to sale off one of my business. But let me reassure you we are doing well and that is just a growing issue, not a going out if business issue. 🙂
See you on line, or maybe at my new store!

Look at the typos - pure Kenny.

Pure genius - let one company take all the debt and give the other company all of the assets.

#ConManKen - always working the angles.

So, who trashed the prior location?

How long before Kenny's new "girlfreind" begins screaming that he ripped her off, maxed out her credit cards, and left her holding the bag?

I think... Is he trying to scam himself, now?

Oh, and nothing says it isn't really the person speaking like "It is I, So and So".

Should probably keep our insults to Ken and the people he might be bilking

Are you guys libleing Jess Hunters Business?

The laws protect you from me, but I think she needs to see her county attorney.

Ooo... Rhonda's local. And Richard is a new made-up account so someone can talk to themselves and make it look like more people care.

Lol. So sad. Sigh

Why "Swords & Wizardry?"

Believe me when I say I have them all in dead tree format. I have OSRIC in full size, trade paperback and the Player's Guide. I have LL and the AEC (and somewhere OEC, but I can't find it at the moment). Obviously I have Basic Fantasy RPG. Actually, I have the whole available line in print. Way too much Castles & Crusades. We all know my love for the DCC RPG. I even have Dark Dungeons in print, the Delving Deeper boxed set, Astonishing Swordsmen & Sorcerers of Hyperborea. BOTH editions of LotFP's Weird Fantasy and some dead tree copies of the Greyhawk Grognards Adventures Dark & Deep

I am so deep in the OSR when I come up for breath it's for the OSR's cousin, Tunnels & Trolls

So, out of all that, why Swords & Wizardry? Why, when I have been running a AD&D 1e / OSRIC campaign in Rappan Athuk am I using Swords & Wizardry and it's variant, Crypts & Things, for the second campaign? (Actually, now running a S&W Complete campaign, soon to be with multiple groups)

Because the shit works.

It's easy for lapsed gamers to pick up and feel like they haven't lost a step. I can house rule it and it doesn't break. It plays so close to the AD&D of my youth and college years (S&W Complete especially) that it continually surprises me. Just much less rules hopping than I remember. (my God but I can run it nearly without the book)

I grab and pick and steal from just about all OSR and Original resources. They seem to fit into S&W with little fuss. It may be the same with LL and the rest, but for me the ease of use fit's my expectations with S&W.

Even the single saving throw. That took me longer to adjust to, but even that seems like a natural to me now. Don't ask me why, it just does. Maybe it's the simplicity of it. At 45 52, simplicity and flexibility while remaining true to the feel of the original is an OSR hat trick for me ;)
