Looking at the future - Mobile Tiny houses

I'm thinking that the tiny house movement is a real option for Calgary. Anyone want to park their tiny house to rent out my garage pad is welcome. I like the concept.

Everyone should feel like a royal at home.

I title Said it all.I posted the photo on twitter. There I have a few followers to spread the Word. I wanted a special place to reflect on a hard day of work. A place to sit and feel special if just for a mere moment. I created a throne. A simple homage to a blue collar guy. Learning to work hard and build the life I want. One simple luxury at a time.
Everyone should feel like a royal at home. Enjoy!

Post game terror.

After a long break from RPG, one of my boys wanted to jump back into the RPG thing. Thanks to a co-worker inspiring many ideas, I took the advice to string a few things together to re-play the gaming sessions I started many moon ago. My son solo, took on the beast posted on twitter - Richard Grzela ‏@RichardGrzela Jul 18 Pumpkin Hydra mini ready for play can't spoil what the kids see me make. Time for a great story adventure mix up. It was a nail bitter. He had 4 life left and the beast 34... A single unlucky roll for me ended the game. The creature withering and slowly blowing it's bits into the night cool breeze. It was a fun seeing the "Pumpkin Hydra" beast in play. Now I need to dream up another creation. Apprently My son wants a custom figure of his own to play with too. We will see, I suppose. ~Enjoy.

Thoughts on process

I have been reviwing many cards over the past few years in the MTG game. Many red herrings are thrown into each set too. As with Tarkir, who would have thought a Rhino would have dominated so much play? You think warriors are key and the spirits, but that is not the case at all. Still you can explore more of the set with the latest adventure http://deckdueltales.blogspot.ca/ Spirits of Tarkir http://deckdueltales.blogspot.ca/ ~Enjoy!

Another Duel Deck tale

I wanted to do more prose in the coming adventures to represent the RPG flare that inspired this new style of game play. I realized recently that so much more can be explored in each world beyond the cards that see limited play. There are hidden stories to be discovered in each color cube as well. Moving forward I think you will see more flavor text in the prose and the RPG point style refined more then ever. Tarkir really opened up many paths to creative thinking. Personally I'm a mono colored tribal kind of guy. However I really enjoy what Tarkir tried to deliver. All things considered it was a pretty good set. I believe that taking the perspective of a character in my tales might better reveal the greater adventure that all players can explore with their own deck tech. Welcome to Tarkir. http://deckdueltales.blogspot.ca/

What is Helvault?

Another 2 week adventure added to http://deckdueltales.blogspot.ca/ The thing about this adventure is the card featured itself was never really part of the setting. I never once saw a single person play this card. I never once knew what it could be used for other than protecting your own creatures. Unfortunately, that would not help in a competitive game. Yet this card had a huge impact on the greater story. I really wanted to see what players would do if I brought this card to the forefront of this Deck Duel Tales.

keeping up with format

More adventures to follow. I'm trying to post more weekly. Also looking to incorporate more flavor text in the tale to reveal more about the inspired tale. ~ Enjoy!

The Hardest Part about life - Living it to the fullest...

This is so true in so many ways... No matter how you look at it, many things hold us back. Imagine living a truly free life. Not so simple or easy to do. To many rules and limitations in the way preventing you from being the most honest self - Children are the closet example of a truly free life, then adults wreck that for them. ~ Enjoy!

Posting - No Post...

I figured that it might make more sense to put less here to match the twitter feed or maybe the blog has more effect with less content. I'm still not sure what it all means - You know the short attention span. The self serving digital voice that screams into the data void. A voice that may never really be heard but always contains the truth of the world around the individual. Maybe less is more... Maybe more provides so much less.

The more you post...

The more you post the more you boast. The more you boast the less you do. The less you do the less you see success. ~Enjoy - Doing more.
