Happy GMs Day!
As GMs Day rolls around (on March 4th of each year), remember to thank the people who make your fun possible; GMs, designers (both professional and homebrew), and the players who aren't *****.

Re: Happy GMs Day!
I celebrated GM's day by running a great session of the 13th Age organized play program. We had a lot of fun, and one of my regular players gave me a PDF copy of the Numenera rulebook as a thank you! How awesome is that?
So, happy GM's day everyone!

Re: Happy GMs Day!
Huh, I celebrate March 4th as the only day that tells you what to do. Is there a relation here, or was the day chosen for other reasons?

It doesn't, currently, make the cut of "top 150-odd notable days observed by at least a handful of people worldwide". So it's debatable whether it's "a thing" or not. Originally Posted by Brookshw

Re: Happy GMs Day!
I think I might celebrate by getting my GM some new markers. He keeps complaining about how his current markers keep running dry
Obviously it's a GM-fabricated conspiracy to get presents from players. Originally Posted by veti

Re: Happy GMs Day!
Of course, according to EN World, the date was picked in 2002.
Partly because March 4th is a day to March Forth and Do Something.
Here's the Official Site with a link to the original EN World thread (under Important Links in the right sidebar).Last edited by Lord Torath; 2014-03-05 at 02:16 PM.
