Ryan Macklin http://ryanmacklin.com/2012/09/must-play-games-for-designers/ made a post where he asks what three games in your opinion are the ones game designer should play. Go check out the post in link above for details.
My three games following the rules above would be:
Lamentations Of The Flame Princess
LotFP is two things. D&D 3rd edition made more simple or OD&D made more straightforward to play. But there are more. Rules are simple and extra lite. The take on monsters is different as monsters are not meat sacks you beat but unique and strange entities. There is also great Tutorial and good article type chapters from Raggi. There are also several small rules you could say are house rules or improvements but what make LotFP a little different.
LotFP makes old fresh and totally playable straight out from the box. Great read and improvement to old.
My Life With Master
I haven't read or played many indie games with focused rules for its genre and setting. But MLWM is one with a great impact on me. The rules do focus on few topics but you can still use those for almost everything an adventure and roleplaying involves. And there is end game and ending conditions. And it is a short read.
World Of Darkness
For full benefices one should be familiar with old WoD games. In nWoD rules are improved and every splat book uses the same rules as a base for a game. There are some things I don't like that much but the difference and improvements compared to old splat books with rules what are the same but still different is what makes this an important rules book. But without comparing nWoD core book to oWoD rulebooks it doesn't work right.
I am a gamer. This blog is about games. 99% focus is on roleplaying games but sometimes I post thoughts near the gaming. Vampires, space pirates, lamenting princesses and mutants in the future all welcome!

A-Z B for Bat In The Attic blog
My third B blog is not text. But go check this really entertaining and cool blog called Bat In The Attic. I have read and enjoyed it for a while but now inspired by letter B decided to press the "follow" link.
Really, go check it out if you haven't already. It is really cool full of interesting material.
http://batintheattic.blogspot.com/
How Bat In The Attic explains his view on OSR:
To me the Old School Renaissance is not about playing a particular set of rules in a particular way, the dungeon crawl. It is about going back to the roots of our hobby and seeing what we could do differently. What avenues were not explored because of the commercial and personal interests of the game designers of the time.

Plan for A-Z challenge ready
I was supposed to take a nap, but instead started to think about upcoming A-Z blogging challenge of April. I am so excited about it. Last year I had some scheduling problems and some posts delayed... This year I will do it better, with three posts per letter, per day. And I got themes now. Last year it was this and that like flea-market collection. But this year, my A-Z challenge themes for each letter are:
1. LotFP and other traditional fantasy game stuffs.
2. Random table
3. General resources, material and thoughts.
That's right. Each day (except Sundays, except first Sunday, which i 1st day, when it all starts!) each letter gets not one but three posts in three different topics.
If you don't know what A-Z challenge is or want to refresh your memory or want to join yourself if you already haven't, check this website. It contains all the information what you want to know.

IndieGoGo campaign for LotFP adventures
What is The Monolith from Beyond Space and Time?
The Monolith from beyond Space and Time is a 32 page A5-size adventure written for the LotFP Weird Fantasy Role-Playing Grindhouse Edition game, but also directly compatible with other "Old School Renaissance" systems and the classic 70s and 80s games that spawned them. The adventure is written by James Edward Raggi IV with additional material by Kenneth Hite, with all artwork done by Aeron Alfrey.
The adventure is a wild one. Suitable for use in absolutely any campaign world, suitable for character levels 0-∞, absolutely any GM can use this for their game. Inspired by Lovecraft (but leaving out Cthulhu, the Necronomicon, and all such references and equivalents!), the Monolith adventure features an alien structure which phases in and out of time and space. (The title, it is descriptive, no?) The adventure is about the player characters encountering and dealing with the alien environment caused by the Monolith's presence and the effects it has on those in the physical world.
I'll go on record now and say this is going to be one of the wildest adventures your group will ever play.
What is The God that Crawls?
The God that Crawls is a 32 page book containing an adventure (+ foldout map section) written for LotFP Weird Fantasy Role-Playing Grindhouse Edition game and directly compatible with other "Old School Renaissance" systems and the classic 70s and 80s games that spawned them. The adventure is written by James Edward Raggi IV with artwork by Jason Rainville.
The adventure, for character levels 1-2, presents the God that Crawls, its lair (a three-level dungeon!), and the cult that worships it. Fairly standard setup twisted and made interesting and horrific in the LotFP tradition.
For more information, check:
17 days left and counting!

Starting to play LotFP with my online friend
When I played mmorpg Perfect World I met new people. Even though I haven't played PW for a long time I still have some friends left from that time. One of them I am good friends with.
He has never played traditional rpgs but I have talked about them quite a lot. He has created a character for my YDIN game and knows the basics. We were planning that I'd run him YDIN test game but it never happened.
Yesterday I talked with him in msn and asked if he would like to play Lamentations of the Flame Princess with me and it was ok.
How will we do it? I got this idea using Google documents. I will create new document and give him priviledges to modify it. If he is also in the document, we can both write it same time and there is also a chat box next to the document.
The chat box is used for off-game talk. For example rules, what he should roll and general explanations and for additional details. The document itself is used for the game text. Basically similar to farp (forum action role-play) but in real time.
I as Referee will use cursived text to separate my writing from his. I will write what Referee's usually talk during the game. Here's an example how it would work.
Referee: You will see smoke from a bonfire in the distance. Air smells like burning corpses.
Player: I will cautiously advance trying to stay low.
[In chat window:
Me: Okay, roll for sneaking. 1d6
Him: Okay... got 1
Me: Success]
Referee: You manage to stay hidden in shadows and bushes and see some dark ritual in practice. Hooded cultists are burning freshly sacrificed human corpses.
And so on...
I also created quick rules for LotFP taking simply the parts player might need. For example how to roll to hit, how magic works etc. I also will create new document for character sheet he can view from Google documents and edit there so he doesn't have to download or print anything.
I haven't used Google documents this way earlier and am eager to try it out in practice.
First quest of character will be located in a small village plagued by rumors of huge dog in the fields. Some rumors talk about werewolf. Major of the village asks character to break legs from the rumors as people refuse to work late in fields. Are the rumors true or is it just superstitious blabber? Is there a huge dog or wolf plaguing the town or is there an actual werewolf...
I will ask him can I post the game here. It will be interesting to play with first timer and I'd like to share the experience here.

Cradle of Rabies blog now has forum
"I decided to include a forum in my blog. This is a tool to make discussions easier as sometimes discussion via comment section can be a little complicated.
Currently no registration is needed and I hope that doesn't cause problems. Mainly I am a little worried about spam bots.
So, if there's a blog post and comment section is not enough for your thoughts be free to add new topic for it here.
I hope everyone uses common sense about rules how to behave. This is a public forum after all."

Instaregion from Zak's blog - my version
http://dndwithpornstars.blogspot.com/2012/02/instaregion.html
I love this! I have to create my own version of this for my own use. Basically drop dice and see where they land and that's there. Except I will determine what features are in a certain hex.
For example if I drop dice for graveyard and an inn I'll feature those in the location where character is. Basically it is random encounter table + random location generator.
For example if characters are travelling from town A to evil wizard's tower B I drop dice for this random location table and that's what's between the travel.
I might create a second table to determine what dice I roll. Like if there is location encounter or not on the way. For example 10% change to 4 location encounters, 50% change for 2 and 10% change for nothing (fill the gaps). Also second table could tell what dice to use.
Dice determine what the location's adventure, danger, size or some other level is.
Basically it goes like this.
1. I roll if there's a location encounter that day of travel
2. If yes, I roll what dice I use to determine it
3. I drop the dice which I got
4. I see where dice land and what it's level is
5. Table separately to see are they hostile or what (use LotFP NPC roll)
Example:
I roll for location encounter and get 2 for a result. Then I roll and get d4 and d10 which I drop on the location encounter plan and get graveyard with result 3 and inn with result 9. I roll to see are they hostile or what and get nothing special for the graveyard but inn is a bad place.
Then I spend few minutes and few sentences to describe the place.
"There is old cemetary besides the road. It is rather small and looks deserted. Everything is old and it is not visited for a long time. There are no population nearby so the cemetary must be really old. Later there is an inn. It looks equally deserted but the dead have rised from the graves of nearby cemetary and now are located at the inn and are hostile."

I had to order Isle of the Unknown
I have gone crazy with Lamentations of the Flame Princess. Since I took it in my hands from my shelf where it had lied for months I couldn't put it down. I have known Isle of the Unknown since it was published but never actually payed any attention to it. Then for some weird reason or fate I started to read about it and was sold. I wanted it. So I ordered it today. Now I am waiting for it.
I already have:
Lamentations of the Flame Princess Grindhouse Edition
Vornheim: the Complete City Kit
Death Frost Doom
Check out Isle of the Unknown description at LotFP website and visit the webstore to buy awesome prints, PDFs or both.
What does LotFP webstore's "About us" section tell? It says:
"We're awesome and we sell awesome stuff. Give us some of you money and we'll give you some of our awesome stuff."
And it is true.

LotFP looking for adventure writers since 2011
http://www.lotfp.com/RPG/discussion/topic/182/lotfp-looking-for-adventure-writers/
This announcement is from late 2011 but I guess it's still valid. It's well written and James Raggi IV tells exactly how you should do it and what he expects from an adventure.
I have never written an adventure to publish it even free to share, but I have to admit this looks like a great opportunity for all great adventure writers who don't know how to publish them.
I would like to know what LotFP adventures were published this way.

Twitter, updated YDIN logo and YDIN talk
I can now be found at Twitter. @Thaumiel_Nerub. Basically I will use my Twitter for roleplaying and Cradle of Rabies related tweets and to follow interesting people in roleplaying hobby.
I also made a quick new logo for my YDIN to use for my Twitter profile picture. It looks like this:
I have had trouble coming up with a good catchphrase. I have puzzled with it for some time trying to come up with something really cool. Everything sounded silly or clumsy.
When I started to create my Twitter profile picture I made box with even sides. Wrote YDIN and saw a big black space. Then I wrote what first came in my mind.
One core - Unlimited possibilities
And that's exactly what I am working with. One very basic rules you need to play. Character creation and mechanics. That's YDIN (Finnish word for core).
When you have the core, you can make unlimited setting specific rules. You can add magic, super powers, psychic powers, monsters, gadgets, special setting rules like fear or insanity... Everything.
You can also mix and match. If you have this sourcebook with different or advanced wounding system, you can use it with the other sourcebook with magic system. Or you can make your own house-rules and own systems to use with YDIN.
I am trying to build YDIN core in the way that it is easy to use with different setting specific variations and extra rules. Character creation for example is quick. Basically rolling, point assigning and small calculations take less than half an hour and in normal character creation you can already customize your character with your own imagination if you like. There is no skill what you want? No worries. With hobbies you can include them. Want special talents (gifts in game term) but you have a better idea than provided in list(s)? Make up your own. Starting equipment, you decide some before you buy from inventory list(s).
It is really versatile system to customize your character but still simple and it doesn't consume time.
That's what I want to do. Basic core system what I use as a base when I create things. One system to rule them all. But what if you do like some ideas or settings? Do what you do with all the other roleplaying games! Custom, house-rule, or use different system!

Downloads & Links
http://cradleofrabies.blogspot.com/p/downloads.html
I have this small downloads section in my blog. Currently there are some stuff I've made to use in roleplaying games, but I also added a possibility for links.
What does it mean? It means, that if you want link to your rpg related downloadable stuff included in my downloads & links page, I can add it (if I find it suitable).
So, do you have something homebrew you share over the internet people can download? Give me email to doomproducts [at] gmail [dot] com and if it's cool, I'll add proper link to that downloadable file.
It does not cost anything. I myself like products people do and find it good for this hobby. Thanks to internet, basically everyone is able to share their products with other hobbyists.
So again, if you have something people can download, I find it appropriated to add and you would like to share the link in my blog, please let me know. I will be glad to do my share of your sharing!

Changes on Cradle of Rabies blog
If this is not your first time visiting here, and you remember this blog, you immediately noticed that colors are changed. I like dark and black, but for my opinion last template with black backgrounds, white texts and red headers was a bit too heavy to read. And as everyone knows, light colors make the effect of more room.
I think, that this more white template and color setting blog doesn't look so stuffy anymore.
Also you see the header. Originally it was a huge wall of tl;dr manifest about what roleplaying games and -gaming is. I think, that people who visit here already know what roleplaying games are and roleplaying is, so I deleted it and added simple welcome note.
Also, I had 7 posts visible at the site what was too much. Decreased it to 3. Not so darn long page anymore and more clear on blog texts.
I had some Google Advertisement also for some reason, but hated it. Made changes to it. In some posts I will still Include Amazon.com link about the product in question. Easy to find legal picture (and hoping that someone will order the product from that link -> profit).
One thing I have always hated was my Labels. I cannot find a good labeling system what I find good. So, again... new labeling and this I find pretty good.
New labels are at the moment (new will follow same formula):

Check it out! http://tossingitout.blogspot.com/p/sign-up-for-to-z-challenge.html
One blog entry for every day of April (except for sundays) from letters A to Z every day it's own letter in order.
Fascinating, and I joined it. Might be really interesting what inspiration just one letter can give for blogging. Looking forward for it!

Gigacrawler - This must be the most awesome project ever!
Zac Sabbath, the writer of Playing D&D With Porn Stars blog has most awesome rpg idea and setting ever.
Go take a look:
http://dndwithpornstars.blogspot.com/2011/01/open-call-gigacrawler.html
This is just so awesome, it's beyond description. Humongous infinite scifi-dungeon where anything is possible. This is like cyberpunk mixed with basic D&D dungeoncrawl with hardcore scifi to low fantasy.
So, go and take a look at this monstrosity of roleplaying game design. It is brilliant!
