Welcome to Roadworthy! This is a chance to show off a Road Crew Judge and allow them to share their experience and wisdom. We provide these profiles to help provide insight into their personality and style, and maybe give up-and-coming Judges some advice on improving their game. The Road Crew theme for 2018 is Strange New Worlds! Head out and find unique places to run games for willing participants. Do something that makes us take notice! Who knows, maybe we’ll put you up on our website. Jump on into the Road Crew program for your chance! Another exotic location for the latest addition to our Roadworthy line-up.

At the time, I was heavily into rules-light narrative games with some occasional dabbling in old-school D&D, and the weird dice and massive spell charts totally turned me off DCC. I stuck with B/X and its clones for my fantasy gaming fix. A few years passed, and DCC remained in the periphery of my gaming circles.

At some point, the DCC core book PDF went on sale for $5, so I decided to take the plunge. I read through the whole thing and was immediately hooked (enough so that I ponied up full price for the hardback book a week later).
