http://diceofdoom.com/blog The Dice of Doom is a blog about gaming, being a gamer and general interest content suitable for nerds. Tue, 01 May 2012 13:26:59 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 The Dice of Doom podcast is a lively discussion about role-playing games, focusing heavily on Dungeons & Dragons, Call of Cthulhu and Warhammer along with many other gaming systems. We have been gaming for longer than we care to freely admit and we have a wide range of interests and experiences in gaming in general (everything from obscure games printed in the 1980's to the most recent tabletop wargames). We like to take a lighthearted approach to our discussions and mix them up with other nerdy news and content as well.

Now imagine that there is a task manager that is a roleplaying game as well. Imagine that each task you complete gives your character experience and allows them to journey on quests. Imagine that there are loot drops for completing tasks. Put that all together and you have Epic Win… Continue reading →]]> http://diceofdoom.com/blog/2010/10/the-most-epic-way-to-track-tasks-ever-epic-win/feed/ 1 http://diceofdoom.com/blog/2009/10/doom-classic-now-available-in-the-app-store-for-the-iphone/ http://diceofdoom.com/blog/2009/10/doom-classic-now-available-in-the-app-store-for-the-iphone/#comments Sat, 31 Oct 2009 07:08:42 +0000 RupertG http://diceofdoom.com/blog/?p=1700 DOOM is one of those games that helped to define a genre.
