This site is full of original material for players of table-top role-playing games. Input and collaboration is welcomed! Please read more about the site here. Or just dive in to whatever looks interesting.

A couple of recommendations: GURPS players, check out what's at The GURPS Diner. The house special is GULLIVER, an easy rules expansion for creating and playing odd-sized creatures. To see the lunch, dinner, wine, and kids' menus all at once, peek at the site map. Take your time; the busboy will be along shortly to clear you a place.

About the Games Diner

old logo

This site is an outgrowth of the hoary old T. Bone's GURPS Diner, with a little more elbow room now for non-GURPS game material. And yes, there will be some.

Purpose and/or slogan

Dilettante Game Design and More: Role-playing game goodies including GURPS Gulliver, other GURPS add-ons, and even non-GURPS stuff.

History

This site began as T Bone's GURPS Diner around 1997 (I think) and became the Games Diner around oh 2005. In late 2006, I moved from static pages to the current "dynamic" site. ("Dynamic" refers to the technology, not necessarily to my content.) 

FAQ

See the new FAQ to have many questions answered.

About the GURPS Diner

A separate page describing the old progenitor of this site, still online as a separate but connected site. Tons of toys there for 3e players, many of which play nice with 4e too.

Communication and interactivity

I'm always happy for comments, contributions, and general feedback. Head here for info on user accounts, commenting, collaboration, problem reporting, forums, the newsletter, and more.

About T. Bone

International man of the mundane, clearly with little ability to think up of cool net names on quick notice. (Take the name as a tribute to the fine blues musicians of yore, not to steak.) Long-time gamer, dilettante game designer, many other things not relevant to this site.

Links and Banners

Got link? Let me know, and I'll link back here. See the full low-down on linking here.

Tech stuff

This site runs on Drupal. That's a content management system, meaning the site content lives in a database; the pages you see are generated on the fly from that content. Cool stuff, and it lets me use many advanced features and reduce many site building tasks.

At the same time, there are always some bugs here and there; so far, I run into a lot of problems with yet-unsatisfactory text editing systems and anti-spam systems. Polls are currently not working right either. Overall, though, features and functionality keep improving.
